My Accountant is a Fallen Angel

Alejandro First Words

"Where is Alejandro?" Elsie muttered angrily to herself.

Elsie was home alone with Alejandro while Roberto was at work. Roberto got his own job closer to home. He had hired two hardworking laborers from the village who he trained to become good tradesmen.  They were building a verandah for an old woman who the villagers call Miss Lilith. Some say she was the village's 'soucouyant.' Soucouyants are said to suck people's blood from their arms, legs and soft parts while they sleep leaving blue-black marks on the body in the morning.

Roberto was a bit scared but he had another puzzle to solve; Where did Alejandro come from? and Why did he have wings and it disappeared? He was skeptical about it. He didn't know if it was coincidental but the coming of Alejandro had given him a lot of luck. He got his own jobs in the village and the roof of his dilapidated home had magically stopped leaking.

"Could Alejandro bring good faith?" he silently asked himself.

He carried  on with his job and soon he and the boys sat under the Silk Cotton tree which was located in the back of Miss Lilith home and had lunch. Miss Lilith usually was never around as she went to the market to sell her crops. She would usually come back home in the afternoon and would give the workers little bags which contained peppers, tomatoes, lettuce and other crops that weren't sold. Business was usually slow at the market according to Miss Lilith.

They all ate their lunches and spoke about the villagers tale of Miss Lilith being the village's soucouyant. Roberto was really happy as Elsie had cooked one of his favorite dishes "Pepperpot" which contained one of his roosters, he had killed. Pepperpot is a stewed meat dish, strongly flavoured with cinnamon, cassareep (a special sauce made from the cassava root) and other basic ingredients, including Caribbean hot peppers.

Miss Lilith had soon came home and the men continued working on the verandah while she sat and watched them on her old wrought iron rocking chair. She seemed really tired and her 'Orni' was drenched in sweat. It soon became 3:30p.m. and Roberto told his workers that they could stop for the day. The four columns stand tall upright for the verandah with no clear structure as yet however Roberto knew that they had come a long way.

"Well done," Miss Lilith whispered and went on to hand each guys a bag full of goodies. Market goodies that is.

She paid Roberto for his day job of five hundred dollars and blessed him. Roberto gave the boys one hundred dollars each and went on his way home. Grabbing a quick taxi.

"Llévame a Poole," Roberto gasped as he was really tired.

"What yuh say, " Driver shouted.

"Poole!" Roberto  shouted back and they were on their way.

Upon arriving home before he could be greeted by Elsie.

"I cyar find Alejandro! Whole day dis chile missing" Elsie stressed.

Roberto became very angry, "Por qué no pierdes el culo a.."

Roberto became very angry and as he picked up the vase to pelt Elsie with, behind it chuckled Alejandro.

"Dadda, Daddy" Alejandro said in his most innocent baby voice.

Roberto rest down the vase gently and began crying.

Elsie shouted, "His first words".

Within two weeks of finding him Alejandro had already known his first words. Was it supernatural? or Coincidental?
