Written by: Chevonie Aitken Story : ‘’ Making a Local Connection’’ It was 5:00 am in the morning. The sun so bright as the Lamp, shinning like a rag of light. Gradually the sun fills the sky with its brilliance and it glow so effortlessly through the day. Glitters from the sun make me feel so warm and cool throughout the day with a feeling of pleasure and charm which is so fascinating and charismatic. Glitters from the sun make me feel so young, it brightens my skin just like the sun, and make me feel so refresh and fun to play Basketball in the sun to energized my body to become hot like the ray of lights from the sun. Suddenly, I started to play games such as Basketball to feel great like Kobe Bryant “Mamba team’’ to keep me healthy and glamourous just like the lights that shines so loud at night just as the stars in the sky. ‘‘The color of the sun sky turned into shades of orange and yellow which glitters my eyes, which widens my eyeballs so tight and a glitter of the sun touch my body so warmly’’. It was a fantastic honeymoon for us to enjoy, it was March 5, 2020, it was a rainy day in the afternoon, our flight was just exactly 9:00 am in the morning. Preparation was made during the nights to gather ourselves tighter to prepare for our exciting trip which was so beautifully prepared to go to Panama City. The fiery ball of light rising from the horizon started to appeared so vigorously and get low in darkness. ‘‘it seems as if it was a good day for us to wake up the morning so anxiously to go on our honeymoon the following morning’’. Thunder started to strike so heavily, my fist started to hurt, I started to guess or think so weirdly, water started to bump on my housetop so heavenly I started to make expression to my spouse while in bed so quickly’’. As the rain started to fall more and more, I heard loud explosion outside pleading for help saying ‘‘Flood, Flood, Flood! Help, Help, Help! My body started to shiver so badly, I went to hug my spouse so tightly with a blanket on me to feel delight and happy with comfort. I looked outside the windows, rain started to pour and small amount of drips of rain felt on my fingers and it appeared that I went to look outside to see the beautiful rainbows of all colors looking at me so beautifully. I went to assist some persons who got flooded inside their homes, I was honor to become a good role model in my community to assist three persons to get shelter at my home for a safeguard. Meals were prepared for them, water and clothes etc. The next morning 7:30 am appeared so fast! I started to pack my suitcase to head out to Norman Manley International Airport. The rain had stopped! ‘‘Milton said’’ that was a nightmare to be remember. On our way to the airport my spouse Milton Harris have such a handsome face, well defined, unique with a sharp jaw and neat cheekbones. His complexion so defines, his eyes so clear and white just like the clouds, his skin so nice, clean, soft and tender. His eyes look so well like the Ocean. He is 6 feet inches tall; his hair color is black, curly, thick with shade of brown colors attached on his hair ends. He drives a colorful green, white, blue and gold car with nice and lovely glittering wheels that’s so beautiful like Belize. It was Valentine’s day, my spouse surprised me with 10 roses of pink and white flowers and a mixture of reds and white as well. He wore a red and white T-shirt with my name on it, a tight flary pants with slips of designs in the middle to caught my attention. I wrapped my hands around him to feel his compassionate kiss. As I left to arrive at the airport, the wheels started to feel so soft and rain started to pour so noisily. The BMW 2015, my spouse driving started to move slow. I stopped, and started to panic. ‘‘No one was there to assist us to replace the wheels’’. We anxiously started to pray then suddenly a Van arrived and helped us to replaced the wheels to a new wheel. Luckily God have sent good Contractor Workers to assist us with our difficulties. We all started to talk for 1 minutes. the workers own big establishments and the CEO who owns properties and hospitals in Jamaica. My Husband was layoff for awhile and it was the great God above who work it out for us to get a cheaper apartment that’s closer to us and a job offer at the KPH Hospital for my spouse as a Physical Therapist. We closed our conversation, rain started to pour again, I was so worried, thirsty and afraid. We drive carefully to reach our destination ‘‘I noticed that we making a local connection which was so awesome! This means to us we have met persons who help us, offer us a cheap discount rates on apartments and a job offer for my husband because we were struggling to get himself a job. This was a great opportunity to go on vacation to enjoy Panama City. The end.
