[Mbali]
"I can't still believe that two f my daughters are in the force, you know that I sleep with worry day in day out "
I'm yawning walking inside my house it's after 3:00 am and this woman decides to call meMe: you worry too much ma"
Ma: do you blame me ?"
I chuckled I know the reason for her call, my gift and hers is connected she is like a third eye to my visions and her being my mom she makes my work unbearable she panics always involve my brother to help and protect me, I wish she can just trust me
Her: Lethu is going gun-blazing killing people for a living wena you banishing and chasing spiritual supernatural beings anti kumele ngife yistress because of you two "I breathe out loud as I throw my self on the bed, it's always this talk with ma, she is a powerful royal Sangoma she speaks to goddesses, and royal Ngonyama she always fighting evil and stopping it, does she not think we take after her, I mean I got this gift trough her it was passed down from her to me.
Me: ukhamba lufuze imbiza ma'Khumalo'
Her: yeyi wena I told you that I had years of training to be where I am ... Wena you just love challenging your gift chasing and fighting a fight that was never yours fight ...your gift is to prophet pray and trust in God to do the rest but bheka manje you in the front line of every fight"I rolled my eyes
Me:ma'Khumalo come down please I know you did not call at this witch hour to school me about my safety, you know something...and it's freaking you out "
talking to mom is always like this, she treats me like a child damn it's so annoying
She breathes out loud, making me sit up straight
Me: Ma?"
Her: it was just a vision of six women with tattoos or imprint on their body "
Me: yin- yang sigh "
Her: yes strange but got me thinking that this chain of witches are their way to powerful "
Me: why do you say that "
Her: first of all they are ancient and they never die they reborn after a few decades..."
Me: but why the yin- yang symbols isn't that a chines symbol ?'Her: for a bright child you are a slow thinker Mbali, The Yin Yang can be found all over the world and is perhaps one of the most commonly recognized symbols in Asian but later moved to Europe and as we spiritual being evolve it was also introduced to Africans witches, It represents balance, the polarity of all things. The black and white parts are equal, and each surrounds a dot of the opposite color, showing that there are balance and harmony within the universe's forces. It is the balance between light and dark, a connection between two opposing forces."
Me: mmm" I stood up and walked around my room
Her: the Yin Yang is also a representation of the cycle of rebirth..."
Me: they never die they get are awaken and reborn "
Her: what?"
Me: it's something that Raguel said to me"
Her: the Angel of Justice ...your Angel?Me: yes ma her she said that The Yin Yang is a good symbol to invoke in rituals calling for balance and harmony. If you seek polarity in your life or are on a quest for spiritual rebirth,
Her: she right because In some teachings, the Yin and Yang are described as a mountain and a valley as the sun climbs over the mountain, the shady valley is illuminated, while the opposite face of the mountain loses light. Visualize the shift in sunlight, and as you watch the light and dark exchange places, what was once hidden will be revealed..."
Me: shit I can't believe it took me this long...it all makes sense "
Her: what does ?"
Me: someone or a thing is destroying the balance removing the veil of the natural and supernatural world "
Her: ooh my God Mbali...that will only mean one thing..."
Me: we are being hunted !"

[Sfiso ]I'm woken up by a crunching sound I look up it's Omnia he is eating chips wearing his full school uniform steering right at me and standing before me
" shit, why didn't you wake me up ?"
Him: why you sleeping here? and there is a gorgeous woman in your bed? "
I looked at him God this child is so forward,
Me: none of your business go get your school bag so I will drive you to school"
Him: she is beautiful "Me: are you eating chips for breakfast? "
I pushed him out of my way,
Him: Dude is she your girlfriend...damn she is thick as and sexy "
He talks licking his lips
Me: Konke! "
Him: I know you old and all but really you can't get it up for her?"
Me: watch it I will fuck you up qhubeka nje "
Him: damn you got issues...or you forgot how to do it"
Me: who do you think you talking too like that!! "
He busts out and laughs at me
Him: not even her smooth skin got your blood pumping? Come on dad must I be worried about you?"I felt anger, I felt like almost punching him kind of anger did he just say he was looked at Cebo smooth body, I raised my eyebrow and looked at him
Him: uthi wenzeni ?"
He: nothing I swear ... I just walk in your bedroom to wake you up but I found a beautiful woman sleeping there with her one leg sticking out of the covers "
Me: that it!! I'm going to fuck you up you touched her!!?"He dashes off while I started chasing him
Him: I didn't do anything I swear I just looked at her "
He stands on the other side of the dining table that was blocking me from jumping him
Him: I don't know why you so worked up about? I didn't do anything"
Me: so just because you have grown balls you disrespecting women like that "
Him: I'm sorry... "
Me: Konke ngathi uyakhohlwa that I'm your father, who taught you to speak like that what the fuck is wrong with you?? "Damn it his quick I keep chasing him around till he stops by my bedroom door and holds the door handle
Me: what the fuck are you trying to do "
I pop my eyes at him and whispered
Him: if you going to kill me might as well tell me who my new stepmom is I will die happy ?"
Me: Omnia!!!" I whisper again trying not to make noise, I don't know why I just suddenly care that Cebo takes my bed and I sleep on the couch, worst part fear that this crazy child of mine will wake her up.Him: I'm asking her myself then?"
I looked at him squrting my eyes trying to intimidate him
but he imitates me too and attempting to turn the door handle
Me: fuck stop ...just stop !! ...ok listen she is helping me with a case "
Him: what? Dude, how old do you think I am? She is wearing nightdress looking like a goddess on your bed "
Me: you really starting to piss me off, stop talking about her like that "
He smiles damn I hate that he looks so much like me now the more he grows up the more I wish he was more like my big brother then meHim: you never bring work home!"
Me: can you just step away from the door, she needs to rest "
Did he listen fuck No! I'm so going to kill this boy... I felt my heart pounding as Omnia opened the door and walked in, we walked into Cebo sleeping and her one leg was sticking outside the linen,
she was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen, the way her lips pout, her hair on her face, there is something about her that makes the clock stop every time I looked at her I have a lot of hyperactive, sometimes ambiguous voices in my head pretty much all the time I blame my job for having less or no trust at all for anyone,
I knew there was something about her when I realized that when Cebo and I are in the same room the extra voices go silent and I just feel very peaceful and warm. When I look at her I just feel this really solid feeling this sort of strong feeling of deep satisfaction with hints of pride that doesn't feel vulnerable to doubt or speculation and trust me I'm practically made of doubt and speculation that is my nature and what I feel now is so foreignHim: damn you like her"
I even bypass the fact that my son is with me here while I'm busy looking a Cebo sleep, I turn and look at him his smiling from ear to ear, I slowly pull the cover to cover her over her leg, yep she has the most banging smooth thick body I have ever seen!! Lord have mercy
Omnia:dad she is so beautiful don't blow it up, please "
I look at him and start pushing him out
Me: shu get out !"
Him: what's her name ?"
Me: dude get the fuck out "
I'm whispering and pushing him out I stopped by the door and looked at Cebo turning on my bed I side smile and close the door.
