Fate Chose Me (Complete)

Chapter 9

She nodded slowly “I think I know him”

“you guys met last December. I don’t know where” I said

“does he have a look alike twin with different colour hair from him?” she asked as though she remembered

I nodded “yes”

She smiled “oh I know him. Very corky guy. Cute smile too” I couldn’t even contain my smile… more like blush “you two are dating?” I nodded smiling like a retard “and you not afraid he might die or something?”

I shook my head “no. why should I?”

She suddenly had this look on her face, I think it dawned on her that her mother wasn’t lying when she said I was pure as opposed to her.

She shrugged “so let me guess, he thought you were me?”

I chuckled “yeah, it was crazy actually”

She nodded coldly. I didn’t understand what was going on with her. She had this look on her face “New Orleans is beautiful” I nodded in acknowledgement. From where we were sitting you could almost see the whole city. It was indeed a beautiful place to be in. she cleared her throat “so when are we leaving?”

I shrugged my shoulders

“morning girls”

We both turned and it was mom. she looked fresh as though she had been out. it wasn’t that early in the morning, it was probably around 8am or so. The street was quite busy, I’m guessing it was during the week and people were going to work or so.

“hey” we said at the same time

She giggled “how are you guys?” she asked walking towards us

Monalisa shrugged “ok I guess. I mean we still alive” she said rudely

“we ok mom thank you” I said

She nodded brushing my hair back “its ok. you my baby and I would do anything” she kissed the side of my head

Monalisa cleared her throat “can you uhhm take me to the airport, I need to make sure that my father is ok”

I thought she was sweet but I guess she wasn’t, I didn’t understand why she didn’t thank my mother and Mbali for saving us.

“I will drive you later. How are you holding up?” Mbali asked

She shrugged “I don’t know. What’s going to happen to my mother?”

“your mother was a slave to her master, she was in a cult. There was no saving her, her soul was sold to the devil and so that’s where her soul went. To the devil. She is trapped wherever the devil resides” Mbali responded. I looked at her and there was little bit of hurt in her eyes

“so what are you guys?” Monalisa asked with furrowed eyebrows

Mbali smiled “witches. The good ones”

She just nodded “so if you guys are witches, what does that make my mother? What’s the difference between you guys and her?”
