The Silver Lining

The curse

Chapter 7

I groaned and try to put my hand on my head. I couldn't. I paused and shifted alittle. I couldn't move. it was also very dark. I struggled to breath to. Something was in my mouth and it did NOT taste good.

"Your awake." I hear a voice. I can't say that I've never heard it before because it sound a tiny but familiar.

"W-who are you?!" I yell.

"Don't yell young man." she calmly states.

"Who...are...you?" I ask trying to sound fierce but I'm terrified.

"I hear that quiver in your voice Kev Kev."

I think I know who it is but I can't jump to conclusions. The burlap bag is ripped off my head. I winced at the light. I finally got used to it but no one was there. I looked down to see I'm strapped to a chair.

"Well well well..." she says as the chair spins around.

"Y-your no! It can't be! Your dead!" I scream.

"Haha, obviously not!" She hisses.

"My parents said to stay away from you!" I yell recalling the stories they have told me about this witch. Yah, witch!

"Did they say I was scary? WELL GOOD! They were right! Your parents didn't tell you whole story I bet." she stares into my eyes till they burn. I look away.

"My parents told me everything I needed to know you-you hag!" I say

"Oh haha well listen to me as I tell a familiar story except I will tell you the truth."

She grabs a chair. She sits down and gets comfortable.

"Alright here we go. Well your mother and I are sisters, well twins to be exact but not identical. We would play and play for hours. We loved eachother. We even named our kids, if we would have any after eachother. Since my name is Kendra, we named her child Kevin and I said I would call him Kev Kev. I saw she named her other kids other names but she loved those names too. Anyway, we were eachothers best friends, until one day. Remember, I wasn't a witch at first. Ok so your mother, Emily, and I both loved Matthew Terph. We fought over him for months. Then the dance came around. Emily, being the brave one, asked him to the dance. He told her he already had a date. He didn't though, he asked me to the dance the very next day. I over course excepted with joy in my eyes as I stared at that hottie. Emily got super jealous. Who wouldn't? So the next night at the dance he toke me behind the gym. He kissed me and at first I loved it then I felt sick. As though a snake were crawling up my spine. I dropped to the ground gagging. He leaned down to tell me the truth. He had been a wore-lock and the only way to get rid of it was a kiss. He picked me. Emily saw the kiss and got furious. Usually she is a peaceful little loving woman but I found a curses book and changed that. I made her and her boyfriend the opposite. She knows but she can't change it. Ever since I have been waiting for her beloved Kevin, aka you, to be away from her so that I could do this to you. See your mother loves you but she can't love you with the spell. I know it's alittle confusing but oh well!" she toke a long breath. She snapped her fingers and a glass of water appeared in her hand.

"My mother loves me? But she, she has, no she can't!" I didn't know what to do.

"Now it's time to remind you how evil

I really am! Time to pass the curse along to someone else" she said as she glanced at me.

"Please no!" I scream as she comes closer.

"Don't make this any more gross than it already is boy!" she says as her wrinkly lips touch mine.

She pulls back and gagged, "eww!" she screams.

I gag and grab my throat. She comes back over and untied me. I fall off the chair and I'm about to black out once again to see that hag walk out of the room laughing. I fall asleep.
