Chapter 2

"so where's this cousin's bla bla bla-"

"we're there" Mia spoke up as you stared in confused.

you left your apartment like 5 minutes ago and now you were already at the venue but that wasn't what shocked you

"why are we in front of a cottage?... an old, creepy looking one? and how the hell did we get here so fast or I'm I just hallucinating?, I could swear we were just at the streets not long walking to your fortune teller" You were creeped out

"news flash, you already swear every day" Mia rolled her eyes

"plus my cousin's, dad's aunt's child uncle who has a twin sister has this strange effect" Mia continued

"meaning?"

"when your desire to meet her is strong, you find her in seconds"

"so she's a witch?"

"I won't call her that but ehhh... maybe?" Mia shrugged

"bitch you brought me to your family's witch!, you said she's a fortune teller"

"in my defense,.... she tells fortunes tooo" Mia tried to reason but it wasn't working

"ok fine I deceived you. But that was because I love you!. So, would you rather turn back and find your way or follow me to meet my aunt who's technically a witch" Mia asked confidently.

You wasted no time in deciding as you turned back, about to find your way out of the unknown place you were at

"seriously!?" Mia grabbed you

"what?, I'm going"

"c'mon Rita!, stop acting like this"

"sis, your long chained relation aunt is a witch, what's there to be acting"

"she could help you don't you understand" Mia begged

"I care for you so just please!" She begged even more

"urhhhh, fine" you sighed looking at your best friend who had a huge grin on her face

"uh Mia?"

"yh, what's it?"

"this cottage seems rather deep in the inside than on the outside" You could feel chills running down your spine just by stepping into the little cottage

"its all an Illusion" Mia was used to this as she had a straight face

"illusion?"

"mhm, my cousin's, cou-"

"imma stop you there sis, this your cousin yada yada yada. Can't you find a short name than calling my cousin-- urhh just thinking about how long the chain is, is so exhausting" You dramatically held your head.

"fine, my related aunty does this because she likes to fool people into believing they're possessed or running mad" Mina rolled her eyes while you stared in disappointment

"so where she at?"

"we're almost there"

"you sure? we've been walking in this illusionary hallway for hours"

"don't exaggerate, we're here"

You both stopped in front of an old looking door as Mia went forward to open it and behold there was an old lady on a rocking chair with her back facing the both of you as she stared at nothing but the black wall. The room looked normal except for the fact the almost everything was painted black. The curtain were shut with no light sipping through it...very normal

"welcome, I've been expecting you Rita" the lady said

"uhm how the hell did she know my name!?" You whispered into Mia's ear

"your desire" the lady answered

'how did she hear me!'  you were shocked

"desire?" You asked

"auntyy~" Mia sensing the awkward vibe in the air, ran towards the lady as she gave her a hug

"how've you been doing Mia darling?" The lady asked

"I'm doing great but not as you aunty Kiki, you're always looking so young, what's your secret" Mia joked

"its a witches secret" the lady laughed

"plus I thought I warned you to stop calling me aunty Kiki, it makes me feel old"

'you are old! ' you sighed in disbelief

"but calling you by your name feels disrespectful" Mia said in a squeaky voice as she pouted as the lady laughed before turning her head towards you

"please come in" she said smiling at you. You were taking brave steps as you held in the need to run

"don't be afraid, I don't hurt" her smile grew wider and at that moment you felt this witch of an aunty was going to sacrifice you.

You were in front of her and she brought her hands out waiting for you as you looked at her in confusion then looked at Mia who signaled for you to put your hands on hers and you did so instantly mumbling a 'sorry'

"close your eyes" Kiki said as it came as a whisper and you did so but not before taking one last peek at the lady in front of you as you saw her eyes were looking strange, the dark pupils were gone, her eyes were all white as she kept mumbling words. Immediately you closed your eyes in case it'll alter the black magic in process.

A loud gasp escaped Kiki's mouth as her eyes shot open making you open your eyes too.

"take a seat" she snapped her fingers and two seats appeared as you and Mia sat down

"Rita my dear, you are cursed"
