    “I thin you missed yo’r callin dere gal, you should be doin dis instead of wat you doin now.”
    I sighed, “I’m trying to concentrate.” She had the look… “Now you have to act more like you don’t like him than you do like him, Jonothan come over here and stand by her.”
    Jonothan stood by her, “Why don we go off someplace.”
    “No, I don’t think so.” She replied.

    “Jas, Ruby’s main problem is dat she to clingy. She wanna be tied down to bad, she wanna be around him too much.”

    “I can try.” She shrugged.
