I am still not used to living with someone in my house. It has been a month since Sibabalwe ‘moved in’ but I am just not used to her company. Sure I like her and all but sometimes I just need to be alone. I have been a loner for 7 years, so excuse me for getting used to being on my own. It has been like that for so long. Having a real human who knows your real face and has no problem with it, that shit can be scary and uncomfortable.

She and the hired team has started on the foundation. They are doing very good and it’s good that there is a CEO. I have signed over a few millions for the project so that they won’t come back running, should they run out of funds while busy. I have decided to name the project the RADEBE HANDS FOUNDATION. I am a Radebe after all and once this curse on me moves to another person, I will be left with all these companies because I created them from scratch, so they need the Radebe name.

See, there is a karma trust fund which contains billions of dollars. When you become karma, you are entitled to at least 1 billion dollar and it is up to you how you use that money. As for me, I started a few companies and have a few properties on my name. So once the curse is broken or shifted, I will be left with the riches I accumulated while I was karma and not the money in the karma trust fund.

The boutique moved in to the building I assigned them 2 weeks ago. There will be a launch welcoming our new and old clients to the new store in about 3 weeks and that will be coupled with a fashion show where I will be launching another new clothing line inspired by the goddesses, so at the end of the night, I would’ve launched 2 new clothing lines. I am excited about this. I know it will take my boutique to the next level. In a few months, we will be opening branches in other provinces and in a year or so, we will go global.

I had one assignment a week ago which I finished in 3 days. It was super easy. But now I am faced with another. I don’t know how to tackle this because it involves ancestors. I would go to Onikiwe but I don’t wanna make it a habit of going to her when I am having problems, I don’t want it to seem like I am using her.

I am currently having brunch by myself at one of the restaurants owned by Mr. Luvuyo Sithole and his family. They are really successful and their services everywhere you go just speaks high volumes. While enjoying my tea, someone sits opposite me. I chuckle when I see who it is. A Mnguni white witch who practices ancestral magic. Now how much of a coincidence that I need a witch like her and she just appears in front of me like I rubbed my hand in the genie jug?

Me: “the Mnguni white witch? What a surprise?” Thembelihle Mnguni, a great white witch who is situated in Swaziland, is the most powerful white witch of the South practicing ancestral magic. She is the aunt of the infamous Lwandeka Sithole formerly known as Mnguni and Sizwe Mnguni.

Thembelihle: “I was informed by my ancestors that you are in need of my services.” She shrugs.
Me: “straight to the point? I like it.” A waiter comes to our table and Thembelihle places her order. It comes back quickly for her because, well her son-in-law owns the place.
Thembelihle: “so what do you need?”
Me: “enlighten me about family curses.” She takes a sip on her drink and sits back.

Thembelihle: “we all know how jealous family members can be. You can see someone who will grow up to be something big in life from a younger age. Jealousy can make you nasty and do stupid things. First by just hating someone and holding grudges in your heart against that person. Secondly, going to witches who can make that person’s life a living hell and lock away their blessings.”

Me: “how do you help such a person?”
Thembelihle: “well the one who cursed him has to own up to their mistake and confess. Then they have to say what they did in order for that person’s luck to be locked away and how to undo that. After that comes the cleansing. Then it will be up to the victim to choose if he wants to forgive his family or disown them or forgive and disown them at the same time.” I nod and take a huge bite of my burger. I chew slowly and then swallow.

Me: “so killing the wrongdoer isn’t the answer?” she laughs and shakes her head.
Thembelihle: “no. it is never the answer. Just do as I say or else if you kill the wrongdoer before the confession or the cleansing, you will not be helping. Instead making things worse because there would be no way in which the curse can be reversed. Unless, of course, you bring a more powerful witch who is aware of the damage done to the victim and what can be done to correct all the wrongs.” I nod again.

Me: “thank for the insight.” She smiles.
Thembelihle: “I feel so honored to be in your presence, Your Highness.” I chuckle.
Me: “now isn’t there something you can give me that will make the confession part go fast and smooth?” she laughs and shakes her head. She then takes out a pen and writes a few things on the serviette. When she is done, she hands it to me.

Thembelihle: “find the things on that note and make a potion. It’s more like a true serum. It will make someone confess their deepest darkest secret and every evil deed he or she has committed.” I smile and then stand up.

Me: “it was nice being in the presence of the great white witch.” I leave a few notes on the table for my bill and then head out.

I apparate in the victim’s family kitchen and luckily no one is on sight. I open the pots and pour the potion I made in all of them. I then close and apparate in my living room. I will be tuning in to my crystal ball as I wait to watch the drama unfold. Oww it is going to be much better than any TV series ever made. Can’t wait.
