"Excuse me?! Can you repeat that again?!" Orion asked in disbelief.
Its been a couple of hours and Motha was still talking to The Seven about their past lives, their powers, purpose and what they have to look out for. Orion was having a hard time believing how he kept repeating history when it came to his love life.
Motha let a out a hearty laugh, "My dear Orion, you've fell in love with every woman apart of The Seven. In some lifetimes you've even had the pleasure of having relationships with all of them except Kairi. That always bothered you. Even if Kairi liked you mutually it never manifested because Justice was her lifetime soulmate. They always found their way to each to other."
Kairi sucked her teeth. She was irritated with Motha constantly bringing up her "destiny with Justice." She knew in heart everything Motha was saying about their past live was true, but it was still hard to digest being tethered to the same man for the rest of her life, in every life.
All the failed relationships in her life were because her spirit belong to someone else by no choice of her own. It left her feeling unsettled on top of trying to bury uncontrollable feelings she was having for a man she just met 3 hours ago.
"But damn! That kiss... No, no, no! Snap out of it Kairi!"
"Can we get back to Thai and Kennedy? I want to know why they were in some mystical trance." Kairi interrupted.
Orion looked at Kairi with relief in his eyes for changing the subject. But she was the one more relieved.
"Ahh yes. When I created each one of your essence, I didn't have many expectations. I went with what I felt and I guess my subconscious wanted to have two of my "children" be really close. The bond between them was undeniably strong the first time they materialized. They were like twins who could feel how the other one was feeling even if they weren't around each other."
Kennedy jumped up, "Omg! That's what happened to me when I was on my way to the DMV in the fire truck. It felt like a piece of my heart was being ripped out my chest!"
"Kennedy didn't you also say you could hear me calling for help?" Thai interjected.
Kennedy nodded in agreement, "And when we got together everything around us disappeared. Kairi had to jump in our minds to snap us out of it."
"Yes Thai. You and Kennedy's psychic connection is strong. You will always find each other in every lifetime. One lifetime, I decided to have some fun and make yall twins. I will never do that again." Motha laughed.
"Ms. Motha?" Harlem raised his finger in the air.
"Harlem, please it just Motha." she said annoyed.
His face cringed, "Its not going to roll off the tongue that quick after 3 hours. Anyway. You mentioned that things are different in this lifetime. How can you tell when we lived differently each lifetime?"
"Good point Harlem because I'm confused on that as well" Reyna adds.
"There are certain things I don't have control over even though I created you. You're still your own unique person, but destiny and fate exist for a reason. Things beyond my control such as, Thai and Kennedy's bond, Kairi and Reyna being best friends, Harlem getting on everyone's nerves but mainly Justice and Orion's the most. Harlem ending up with Reyna..."
"WHAT?!" Harlem and Reyna screamed in unison.
"What do you mean, I end up with Harlem? I have a boyfriend and his name is Maurice!" Reyna said defiantly.
"No dear. You HAD a boyfriend. I saw what happened between you two today" she taps her head and continues, "That's one of the things that's different in this lifetime. Each one of you will have someone in this lifetime that will betray you, if they haven't already."
