The sky was gradually getting dark, Melanie stood in front of her room watching the birds fly in groups to their various nests, the atmosphere looked a lot busy with the sounds of their wings clapping in the air and their whistling making the night look even more busier than it should, she folded her hands across her chest rubbing them gently, the weather was a little chilly though it made her feel cold but she loved the feeling, she smiled at intervals at the thought of all she have been achieve that day, she felt super proud of herself and the fact that she didn’t let anything stop her, she was glad she took the bull by the horn but on a second thought, she wondered why she didn’t recover all these years, she sighed deeply and ran her hand across her forehead acknowledging the fact that everything does happen for a reason, maybe if Charles and Rose had made sure she was taking her drugs and going for medical checkups, she would have gotten better all these while, she b

Charles made her stand grabbing her by the hair and hitting her head against the table.Brenda yelled at once, she couldn’t stand the sight of him maltreating her mother, it was getting too much to bear, tears were already curling up on her cheeks leaving them soaked with more and more tears “leave her alone! Stay away from her you monster!” She cried out.Charles turned to her and gasped, he couldn’t believe that little Brenda could now stand up against him, something her mother would never be able to do “what did you just say?” He asked.Brenda was quiet, she wondered if she made a mistake by speaking up, perhaps she ended up making the issue worse meanwhile Melanie could barely see a thing, she was just laying there with blood all over her face at the mercy of Charles who might end up killing her that night and sending her to her early grave, Charles grabbed Melanie by the hair and forced her to stand despite the fact that

The room was dark, a little candle was lit and placed at the corner of the room, though the light was tiny but it saturated the room so well making it brighter than it ought to be, it’s obvious that their was a little spark of magic used to enable to light shine brighter, it was Azora’s room, it looked a little scary and at the same time empty, Carmella lay still on the bed with her eyes shut, animal skin was used to cover a part of her body while a warm clothe was placed on her forehead to normalize her body temperature. Azora stood outside pacing the front of her house, she looked very unhappy and unpleased with the turn out of events, what scares her most is the possibility that Carmella might not be able to survive though she had tried her best to stabilize her, she shook her head in pain knowing that the death of Carmella would only mean that all her plans would fall like a pack of cards and she would spend the rest of her life living right there in the forbidden pa

The third ghost opened her mouth to speak but paused when she heard someone coughing from inside the house, Azora’s eyes flew wide open with excitement, Carmella was finally awake, she grinned happily turning to the ghosts hoping this new develop changes their mind, the ghosts only took glances at each other and varnished without saying a word to her, she didn’t know what that means but she was sure that they have decided to give her a second chance, she jerked up on her feet and ran into the house, Carmella was already sitting up on the bed by the time she got there, she was rubbing her hands over her eyes looking like someone who was lost and had woken up from the dead, of course she did wake up from the dead else she was supposed to be dead by then and her corpse dumped where the villagers would find it and the cause of her death would never be traced expect by a witch more powerful than the powers of the ghosts, Azora stood in front of her glaring at her.Carmel

Azora chortled on hearing her words, it was loud enough so Carmella heard her clearly, she turned staring blankly at her then sighed out loud on a second thought, after all she wasn’t the one who almost lost her life all in an effort to eliminate her kids sister, she bit slightly on her lips narrowing her eyes in pain at the thought of Diana, getting rid of her have become so impossible, she have become a thorn in her flesh, not like it just started but it has always been like that ever since they were children, she left belittled when it comes to Diana, the villagers always praised her for her beauty and good character, she always felt swallowed up in Diana’s shadows as a child, unable to express herself or be heard by anyone, as far as she was concerned when Diana was around, no one saw, noticed or even heard her voice, it was always Diana this and that, she got so jealous but couldn’t do anything but to hope that she some day gets married to Joshua whom she had
