Castiel: Phumi come on I just want to know
***She ignored him until he decided to leave cause he knew he couldn’t enter the house without her permission....cause Vampires can’t enter a private household without the current occupant/ occupants verbally telling them to enter....after Phumi realised that he left she took her phone and dialed Kazi’s numbers***
Kazi: babe
Phumi: hey look here Kazi please warn your weird and arrogant boyfriend to stay the hell away from me cause I know people Kazi, in fact you know that I know people ko kasi ( back in the hood) and he can disappear just like that without a trace so warn him assomblief!
***she said with an angry voice***
Kazi: wait.... you mean Castiel?
***she said whispering his name***
Phumi: yes....lomgodoyi wenja ( that useless dog) came here and I thought he was looking for you then boom he said he’s looking for me instead and you won’t believe what he wanted to know
***Kazi swallowed hard and jealousy creeped in***
Kazi: he...he said that?
Phumi: yes then he asked me a stupid and insulting question....in fact msoono o le insulted me and my family Kazi
Kazi: ummm
****she was confused now***
Phumi: he asked me if raloya ko gae imagine! (he asked me if we use witchcraft at home)
Kazi: what?
Phumi: imagine.... sebete sa ramarete ole ( the nerve of that dick)....im sorry he’s your boyfriend mara marete a gae nx ( but his testicles )....who the hell does he think he is
***she said with an angry voice ***
Kazi: wow...ummm let me call him and hear ukuthi yini inkinga yakhe ( what’s his problem)
Phumi: do so and warn him about me Kazi....im a dangerous chubby girl and I know dangerous people back at home
Kazi: I will trust me I’ll make sure he knows
***she faked a laugh***
Phumi: good
Kazi: ok let me call him
Phumi: shap
***they ended the call and she looked around and Menzi wasn’t in sight then she dialed Castiel’s numbers***
Castiel: what is it?
***she cleared her throat***
Kazi: hey it’s Kazi
Castiel: I know now what do you want
***she swallowed hurt by his sudden rude and cold attitude towards her***
Kazi: ummm Phumi called me and she said you came by my house
Castiel: I did so?
Kazi: she’s angry about what you asked her
Castiel: why are you calling me Kazi
Kazi: why were you there in the first place Castiel I mean you don’t even know Phumi
Castiel: udliwa yini Ntandokazi if im interested in knowing Phumi
***she gasped***
Kazi: wait you’re interested in her?
***she asked with a low tone***
Castiel: listen here girly.....you made your choice so whomever I show interest in whether is purely innocent or romantic akulona udoko olugayelwe wena lelo ( its none of your business)..... even if it’s your mother okzalayo.... now lose my numbers and enjoy your boring hitman in peace I don’t have time for confused little girls, im way too old for that shit
***then he dropped the call leaving Kazi shocked and hurt by what he said, then Menzi walked in***
Menzi: sthandwa sam are you sure uPhumi is alright in your house all alone?
Kazi: Phumi this Phumi that....aarg man!
***she got up and walked away looking angry leaving Menzi confused and shocked by her***

AT RAY AND MBALI’S HOUSE
***the following day Mbali and Ray were having breakfast when Ruslan just walked in house looking like he didn’t sleep at all last night***
Ruu: familia ( family)
***he said and kissed Mbali’s cheek and he sat down joining them on the dining table***
Mbali: hey Ruu....damn you look like hell
***he chuckled***
Ray: what happened to you man
Ruslan: hardly slept, Mpilo had nightmares almost the whole night and he was afraid to go back to sleep.... I couldn’t even do a spell on him so he’ll be able sleep cause he might still have the nightmare but he’ll find it hard to wake up
Ray: damn....will he be ok
Ruu: yeah don’t worry he’ll be fine
Mbali: you know I’ll never get used to you having “powers” Ruu
***he chuckled as he dished up for himself***
Ruu: but you can get used to Saint mmmmh?
Mbali: leave my baby alone please
***Ruslan laughed and Ray just shook his head***
Ray: why is it that you’re growing fond of that pain in the ass demon my flower
Mbali: he protects me baby so he has a special place in my heart
***she said and Ruu looked at Ray surprised***
Mbali: what?
Ruu: nothing his flower im just shocked by your statement
Mbali: he’s part of my son Ruu just like La Parca is part of my husband and if I want to live a peaceful and stress free life I need to accept both of them into our lives....i cant afford to be scared of my son or Ray because they have demons in them... and you know they say black don’t crack right, well my skin is light so that means I crack easily and I can’t have that
***both Ray and Ruu laughed***
Ray: I can’t believe you just said that baby
***he said still laughing along with Ruu***
Mbali: but its true haw
***they continued to laugh.... anyway they had their breakfast conversing and laughing.....well after their breakfast Ray and Ruu went to his study while Mbali cleared the table***
IN THE STUDY ROOM
Ray: so what caused the nightmares man
Ruslan: those fucken Mashaba’s are responsible man
Ray: what?
***he said looking at Ruu with a frown on his face***
Ruu: yeah but don’t worry Thandi and the kids are all protected now and as for those fuckers I’ll deal with them....they all gonna run around the streets as mad people, all of them....starting with their zombies, cats, dogs and even their rats...all of them!
***he said with an angry voice then he breathed out trying to calm himself***
Ray: so those pieces of shit don’t learn huh
***he said pissed off***
Ruu: don’t worry they’ll learn the hard way
Ray: damn it....how can they do that to a child man....Mpilo is their own blood for fuck’s sake!
Ruu: they don’t give a damn about those boys man all they care about is money and power while that shithead called Jerry or Gerald or Jackson wants my Thandi...... I swear that bastard will curse the day he developed feelings for her by time im done with him!
*** he got up and went to pour some whiskey for both of them and he went back to sit on the couch and gave Ray his drink and he sighed***
Ruu: then there’s Cass
Ray: what did he do now?
***Ruu chuckled***
Ruslan: well apparently he met a lady who is Kazi’s cousin and he said he can’t read her mind like he does with everyone else
Ray: damn.... for real?
***he took a sip of his drink and he nodded***
Ray: has something like that ever happened to him before
Ruu: he said no
Ray: damn so what does it mean man?
***he sighed***
Ruu: well it means two things actually.....she’s either protected by a spell or something that prevents Cass from reading her mind cause she’s our enemy or she’s his mate....his chosen one
Ray: wooh.....
Ruu: mmm
***he took another sip***
Ray: damn....if she’s not the mate then she could be with the Brethren
***Ruu nodded***
Ray: but what about what Juana said
Ruu: that bitch lied about a lot of things man, I wouldn’t be surprises if she made a mistake.... I mean Kazi and that girl are related so maybe she confused the two or she’s not as good as she thinks she is and her powers are weak
***Ray laughed***
Ray: you know even today I don’t understand why those evil blood sucking fuckers call themselves THE BRETHREN... I mean brethren are fellow Christians or members of a male religious group or order right
***Ruu chuckled***
Ruu: well brethren is a fancy plural form of “brother” so yeah you right cause during ancient times men and women used to call each other brethren in their religious groups
Ray: then they should call themselves “ brethren of lucifer” instead
***Ruu laughed***
Ruu: well their original name is “ The Brethren of diablo” ( brothers/sisters of the devil)
Ray: Lucifer, the devil..... same shit
***Ruu laughed again***
Ruu: yeah.... “pieces of shit” is what they should call themselves
***they both laughed***
Ruu: so you really called Celine over huh
***Ray sighed and he gulped down the rest of his drink at one go and Ruu chuckled***
Ray: yeah...i swear Mbali is gonna send me to my early grave man
***Ruu laughed***
Ruu: you should’ve refused
Ray: well Mrs Owoh-Masden threatened to set up the meeting herself if I don’t
***Ruu laughed again***
Ruu: I couldn’t believe it when you told me over the phone man
Ray: this girl is gonna give me heart problems im telling you man
***Ruu laughed then Ray’s phone rang and it was Celine, he sighed and answered***
Ray: Celine
Celine: im outside
Ray: ok I’ll let you in
***he dropped the call and Ray brushed his face and he got up***
Ray: let’s go she’s here
***Ruu got up and he followed him chuckling***
IN THE LOUNGE
Ray: she’s here
***he said to Mbali and she got up with her heart beating fast***
Ruu: are you sure you want to do this his flower
Mbali: yeah....Let her in babe
Ray: im sure she’s not even wearing anything since I told her I’ll be all alone so....
***she clenched her jaws***
Mbali: don’t worry about that....you won’t fuck her so it’s no biggy
***Ruu looked at Ray with his eyebrows raised and an amused look plastered on his face and Ray huffed and he opened the gate for Celine.... then Mbali went to the dining area and she came back with a chair and she put it on the empty space that was in the lounge and she waited***
Ray: and the chair
Mbali: its for our guest baby
***Ruu held back his smile....he was impressed by Mbali while Ray was worried about her.... then they heard the doorbell ring and he sighed and went to open.....Mbali and Ruu heard her voice and soon she walked in wearing a long brown coat that showed her cleavage with knee high boots, she was followed by her two bodyguards and Mbali chuckled getting angry....Celine frowned when her eyes landed on Mbali and Ruu***
Celine: what the hell is this Raymond...i thought you said you’ll be alone?
Mbali: sit!
***she looked at Mbali up and down and she chuckled clearly mocking Mbali***
Celine: you talking to me little girl
Ray: Celine!
***he warned her then her two bodyguards took a step forward with their hands on their waists were their guns are***
Mbali: SAINT COME OUT NOW!
***Ruu and Ray’s eyes popped out and immediately wind like sounds filled the room and the windows immediately got covered with dark smoke and it became dark inside but luckily the lamps where on inside the lounge and dining area***
Celine: WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE RAYMOND!
***she said looking around and her bodyguards got closer to her trying to protect her***
Ray: Mbali!
Ruu: damn!
***then another black smoke formed a figure next to Mbali....even though she was a little scared of Saint ( the demon) but she knew he or it won’t hurt her in any way...as for Celine and the bodyguard they drew out their guns pointing them at the smoke formed figure with their shaking hands and eyes popped out***
Ruu: I wouldn’t do that if I were you
***he warned them and immediately their guns melted and they quickly dropped them on the floor cursing***
Guard1: what the fuck!
***he said looking scared while the other one was frozen on the spot***
Celine: Ray what the hell is this....wha...what’s going on here?
***she said with her eyes popped out and her heart pounding hard against her chest***
Mbali: my son take this two men trying to protect this evil witch that hurt mommy away and deal with them but don’t kill them just make sure they have nightmares that will haunt them for the rest of their miserable lives
Voice: yes mommy
***then the guards got lifted up by the black smoke all of a sudden and they screamed as the smoke moved away with them from the lounge going to the basement.... Well in the basement Saint really dealt with them accordingly, he/it left them curled up into a ball in the corner with their knees up on their chest and their hands wrapping around them while they rocked themselves back and forth with tears running down their cheeks***
IN THE LOUNGE
Ray: my flower
Mbali: Ray please not now.....now what I want from this bitch is to sit the fuck down on that chair before Saint makes her
Celine: Raymond!
***she said trying to sound brave as she looked at him but a crack on her voice gave her away and Mbali smirked***
Ruu: wow im impressed Mrs Owoh-Masden
***he said as he went to sit down on the couch....as for Ray he stood there shocked, impressed but most of all worried***
Mbali: SAINT!
***the smoke figure came back from the basement***
Saint: yes mommy
***Celine quickly sat down***
Mbali: good bitch
***Ruu laughed***
Celine: what do you want?
***she said looking at Mbali with an angry look on her face***
Saint: don’t look at mommy like that!
*** Saint said with his creepy and scary voice but Celine because of her stubbornness, she kept looking at Mbali with a deadly look then the smoke figure quickly moved coming towards her and she quickly closed her eyes shaking***
Saint: I won’t tell you again!
***Saint warned her and Mbali’s face got filled with a lot of a bad-bitch attitude and she smiled***
Mbali: thank you baby
***then the smoke moved back a bit and Celine opened her eyes but she looked down instead scared to look up***
Mbali: now here’s the thing....before we get to you trying to ruin my marriage let’s start with Ray’s “supposed” child
***Ray and Ruu’s eyes popped out and they looked at each other talking with their eyes then they looked back at Mbali and Celine***
Mbali: is there really a baby or you made that up....and another thing Ruu over there is a real wizard so if you lie bitch he’ll know and Saint , my boy over here will deal with you.....now is there a baby or not
Celine: ye...yes there is
***Mbali swallowed***
Mbali: and the baby mama?
Celine: she...she was Rosalina my cousin
***Ray sighed and he looked down when Mbali looked at him and Mbali swallowed again trying by all means not to shed a tear....she cleared her throat and composed herself***
Mbali: you said she was your cousin
Celine: she.... she died of drug overdose
****Ruu frowned***
Ruu: mmmm Celine....
***he shook his head***
Mbali: what is it Ruu?
Ruu: she’s lying
Celine: no...no im not
Mbali: Saint!
Saint: yes mommy
***he said with his scary voice***
Celine: ok ok I killed her....i paid someone to inject her with an overdose of drugs to make it look like suicide cause I was angry that she managed to sleep with Raymond and even got pregnant while I failed
***Ray chuckled getting angry cause Rosalina was a sweet girl, even if she was still alive he knew she wouldn’t come with baby mama drama cause she was scared of him***
Mbali: where’s the baby
***Celine kept quiet***
Mbali: im not gonna ask you again bitch
Celine: i...i sold her to some married couple back in Venezuela who can’t conceive
Ray: you fucken Bitch!
*** he rushed to her and a punch landed on her face breaking her nose then he grabbed her by her neck looking deadly that even Mbali got scared by looking at him***
Ruu: Ray!
Ray: THEIR LOCATION NOW!
***he said squeezing tight and she struggled to breathe busy making shocking sounds with her hands trying to pull Ray hand off her neck***
Ray: ANSWER ME DAMN IT!
Mbali: Ray stop!
***he didn’t at first but when she touched his arm, he came back to his senses and he let her go and turned to look at a scared Mbali then he looked back at Celine who was coughing uncontrollably with thick blood coming out of her nose.....Ray still had that scary look on his face***
Ray: give me my daughter’s location or I’ll let Saint deal with you!
***Celine continued to cough holding her painful neck***
----------
AT KAZI’S HOUSE
*** Phumi has been trying to call Kazi who wasn’t answering her calls the whole morning and she was getting a bad vibe that maybe she was avoiding her.....she wished she didn’t call her last night about Castiel showing up here and all that he said cause she could see that Kazi liked the guy even though she was now dating Menzi.....she sighed and decided to call Menzi***
Menzi: yeah
Phumi: ummm hey Menzi its Phumi, Kazi’s cousin
Menzi: ooh hey is everything ok
Phumi: yeah...actually no I’ve been trying to call Kazi all morning and she’s not answering my calls
***Menzi sighed cause Kazi slept without saying anything to him and she also woke up in a bad mood, even the morning glory he gave her didn’t change her mood and he wondered what happened between them....he wanted to ask her but he thought against it thinking that they will squash whatever fight they had soon ***
Menzi: ummm I last saw her before I left for work.... she’s probably busy or something
Phumi: ooh yeah maybe anyway please tell her to call me back when you talk her
Menzi: ok I will shap
Phumi: shap
***they ended the call and then the was a knock on the door and she quickly got up and went to open the door thinking its Kazi and her face fell when she saw that it was Castiel instead.....she tried to close the door but he blocked it with his hand***
Castiel: I come in peace....
***he said showing her the bouquet of flowers and a box of expensive swizz chocolates***
Castiel: im sorry about last night..... what I said didn’t come out exactly the way I wanted it to come out
Phumi: ufuna ngiyenzeni ngamaflower heh ( what do you want me to do with flowers), do I look like a white woman to you?
***Castiel looked at her shocked***
Phumi: and what’s with those chocolates..... weh Castiel or Castor oil or Custard or Caster Semenya.... whatever your name is....
***she said waving her hand around***
Phumi: don’t you know amaFerrero Roche mmmmh ngiyenzeni mina ngaleyo brooklax (don’t you know Ferrero Roche’s mmmmh what should I do with those Brooklax “laxatives” )
***Castiel wanted to say something but for the first time in his 105 years he was out of words say***
Phumi: ngicela uhambe tuu Castor oil anginaso isikhathi sakho mina (please leave Castor oil I don’t have time for you) Kazi is angry at me cause you showed up here so tsamaya tuu ( leave) before she finds you here
***then she slammed the door on his face and locked it going to the lounge while clicking her tongue angrily***
Phumi: yho go decid(a) go shapa ke moyanyana mo KZN then phrrrtlh ke gafela ke motho ebile motho wa teng obitsa ba ko gae baloi ....ai dilo tsa KZN ( yho I decide to come to KZN for some fresh air and out of the blue this guy is all over my face he’s even saying everyone at home uses witchcraft.... ai KZN things)
**** she shook her head and tried Kazi again but this time it send her straight to voicemail.....she sighed and sat down thinking that maybe she should just go back home***
