Cursed - My Name Is Karma

CHAPTER 33

SEASON FINALE

First thing I do in the morning, I check if the ghost girlfriend is gone. Luckily she is, so there will be no reason for me to hunt down Azraelle and deal with her. But she would totally kick my ass if I were to challenge her to a fight. I take a bath and then prepare for the day ahead. When I am done, I head downstairs. I find Siba drinking coffee staring into space. I clear my throat and she jumps up, almost spilling her coffee.

Siba: “OMG! You scared me.”
Me: “but I live with you.” she laughs nervously.
Siba: “yeah, you do.” I sigh.
Me: “do I need to erase your memory from yesterday’s incident? Because I can do that.”

Siba: “you don’t have to. I have to get to work.” She washes her cup and then attempts to walk out but I hold her arm. I frown when I see flashes of the crows chasing her and eating her dead body in the dark world. I scream and quickly let go of her.
Me: “I need to cleanse you as soon as possible. Why didn’t you tell me you had a nightmare?”
Siba: “it’s no big deal. Just trauma.”

Me: “no. that is not just trauma. That was a vision. Something that will happen in the near future unless I stop it. Go prepare yourself and be back here in 20 minutes.” She pouts and then walks away.
I cook breakfast which includes bacon, scrambled eggs, toasted bread, Russians and sliced tomatoes. I could be a chef in my next life if I want to. When I am done, I place everything in the dining table and also prepare juice. I then go sit and wait for Siba.

Sikhanyiso: “one thing I missed about you was your cooking skills dear sister. I mean you can smell the bacon from the gate.” He says walking in with Baphuncumo. I chuckle and shake my head.
Me: “what brings you guys here?”
Baphuncumo: “food.” He makes himself comfortable on the seat next to me and starts dishing up.
Me: “hey, you’re being rude. I am waiting for Siba.”

Siba: “wait no more.” She walks in looking beautiful in burgundy solid cropped tube top & pencil midi skirt set paired with white Nike sneakers. “Morning gentlemen.” She smiles and then sits down next to Sikhanyiso. She really has a nice body and a pretty face.
Sikhanyiso: “you look nice, minion.”
Siba: “I know, old man.” she says with a smug on her face and starts dishing up. I also dish up for myself and start eating.

Sikhanyiso: “just because I called you a kid, you’re going to refer to me as an old man?” she shrugs.
Siba: “If the shoe fits.” Baphuncumo laughs.
Me: “we could give you guys some privacy because this sexual tension between you two is too much. I mean the last time you had sex Siba was in Eastern Cape, right?” she chokes on her food and Sikhanyiso laughs.

Sikhanyiso: “I don’t mind scratching that itch you have minion.”
Siba: “oww yeah. You know so much about scratching itches, don’t you?”
Baphuncumo: “okay kids. Enough about the sex talk. Aibo.” We all laugh.
We carry on eating with Siba putting me to speed about what has been happening at the Foundation. Baphuncumo loves the idea and asks to invest in it. Although I don’t need his finances, the thought of him putting money in something I thought of is really comforting. So I agree. We finish eating and they leave.

Me: “go take a swimsuit.”
Siba: “why?”
Me: “because I said so.”
She rolls her eyes and walks upstairs. She comes back with a handbag and sunglasses. Did I say I was going to the beach? I just shake my head and walk out. She follows me. We climb inside the car and drive out. We drive to the white river. She is in awe of the white trees that surround it. Well it’s like a magical area. Well it is magical because it is not visible to humans, except for witches.

Siba: “What is this place?”
Me: “goddess of water’s secret lair. Come on.” I park the car and we climb out off. “You can change to the swimsuit now. Nobody will see you. There is literally no one around here except for the goddess who is currently inside the water.” She rolls her eyes and change into the swimsuit.

We walk to the river and Sabina emerges from the water. The water is clear, you can even see the bottom of it. It becomes white when she is inside, blue when there is danger ahead and green when there is darkness that has entered the water. She bows and looks at Siba.
Sabina: “shall I make myself visible to her?”

Me: “no. you don’t have to break the rules for her. She had a nightmare from her attack from yesterday. I think the crows touched her and released some dark magic to her. So she needs cleansing.” Siba looks at me and looks at the river.
Siba: “who are you talking to? Is this your breaking point? Have you really gone crazy?” Sabina laughs and the whole river literally vibrates.
Me: “I am talking to the goddess. Hand me your necklace and go in.”

She takes off the necklace and hands it to me. She then walks to the water. The minute she steps in the water changes colour. As she swims further, the water turns green. I look at Sabina. She sighs and goes to stand next to the river. Siba goes underwater and after a few minutes she emerges. The water has gone back to clear. She comes out and stands next to the river shaking off the wetness. Sabina puts her hand on Siba’s shoulder and chants some spell. She then looks at me and goes back inside river. When she is in the river, she has that mermaid tale. It’s weird but it is what it is.

Siba: “I feel pure. I think the cleansing worked.” I smile at her.
Me: “it did. Now let’s get out of here.” we walk to the car. Did Nyx really just poison Siba? And she thought I wouldn’t find out? Wow, I guess she is looking for war then and she is going to get it. Soon.
