The Macaron Order

Repentance and Relapse

Playing around the dynamic of the relationship between Josh and Dalilah was Ursula's favorite game. When she wanted to drop enormities about Josh, her preferred energy was that of Maya. But Maya did not simply come as herself. Dalilah was stunned to recognize her own energy in her as well as a ton of evil that either was given from Ursula or was in her all along. The result was that she was joyful, funny and sadistic all at once. Dalilah realized that she was talking to her doppelganger. Same expressions, same mannerism, same memories of books read, movies watched and songs memorized in her childhood. That was quite a shock to Dalilah because she knew that Ursula was perfectly capable of using Maya to hurt others, all while making them believe that it was Dalilah. Time was going to show her what she did with that.

As Maya, Ursula could detach herself from her son and say horrors about him without one ounce of regret or bad conscience. She would drop words like pedophilia, perversion and bestiality like others say cookies and crackers. She was also a master at playing mind games. Ursula would communicate telepathically with Dalilah and tell her that Josh was sending her healing, not only to her but also to her daughter and husband. She would say that he is in love with her in spite of his apparent indifference. It was just an act, she said, because not only was he on the autism spectrum, but he was also bipolar and had other medical issues that she was not ready to reveal at that point. Dalilah always suspected that hypnotist Josh had his own mental health issues and admired how he healed himself by healing others. But right now, she was just fascinated by how Ursula went from stating that he could not connect with his emotions and that she is the only love of his life to now claiming that he is in love with Dalilah. She mastered deceit and manipulation. She sent contradictory information to keep everyone under control and successfully create a toxic dynamic of runner and chaser between her son and his female friends. Dalilah was positive that there were many caught up in this game. One day she was going to find out who they were.

Maya posed as Josh's ex and she communicated to Dalilah that she hated him as much as she could not let go of him and yes, was still in love with him and his financial support. Maya could be delightful. She could break into a song or crack jokes like no other. The common denominator of all of the things she said was that they all came from Dalilah's memories. Books that she had read as a teenager would be mentioned, expressions that she used a lot as a young adult, and her favorite songs in the languages Dalilah had heard growing up. However, she could just as fast slip into the most vicious persona. Her words were cutting and her attacks as a snake had a manic feel to them. She would bite in the head repeatedly, then attack the back, shoulders and neck. She targeted the jugular then went straight to the heart. Good thing Dalilah was divinely protected and most attacks bounced off her. She felt like Maya could not help herself and control her aggressive nature. When she was in that state, she could potentially commit murder on a more vulnerable target.

It was Maya who doubled down on what Ursula had earlier accused Josh of doing. She confirmed that he had tried to cause her a car accident over a year ago. Then she gloated while adding that he did the same just the day before when she was going to the store to buy some gifts for family members they were going to meet during the weekend. He was jealous, she said. He has bipolar and his jealousy goes out of control. She was buying gifts for men, so he went on the attack.

She also repeated that he had attacked Adam multiple times and was still sending her love spells as well as separation spells. About a year prior, Adam had a couple of episodes where he simply stopped responding. His eyes were open but it almost felt like his soul was leaving him and then made a U-turn and came back. For five minutes he looked like he was paralyzed. There was no explanation for what just happened. The doctors were baffled. Maya also mentioned that he repeatedly tried to push him. He used malevolent energy and had succeeded in making him fall at least once, while he was visiting his daughter overseas. Thankfully, although the fall was painful, he had not broken any bones.
