Until a ringtone fills the air. He groans out loud and picks up his phone to answer the call,
"Yes dad" he talks to his dad on the phone with an annoyed look, he's probably getting scolded. I couldn't help but giggle at his predicament. Drunk, horny and irritated,
"Okay, bye" he sighs and turns to me and kisses me,
"Time to go home, it's way past your bedtime" I make fun of him,
"Eris but" he's still in the mood to spend more time with me,
"Don't worry, I'll call an Uber to take Bryan and Debbie home" I pull his cheeks,
"But I don't want that" he whines still clearly drunk,
"You need to go home Daylon" he finally agrees after persuasion and I help him pack his things after calling an uber for Bryan and Debbie.
His dad pulls up and he gets in the car sulking, I wave him goodbye and he returns the gesture with the car driving away. After 15 minutes the uber arrives and takes Bryan and Debbie home.
I hit the shower room and pack my things into my beach bag, I call an uber for myself and wait for about 10 minutes for the car to arrive before I set home.
My mind wanders as I was on my home. From the strange Aura to the images and then to Daylon. His touch and kisses. He was drunk and I'm sure he wouldn't remember anything after puking it up and drinking some black coffee.
I sigh tired and pull out the black feather from my swimsuit, it wasn't wet to my surprise and neither were the ones on my wrist. I smile and feel a thump in my chest, I place the feather close to my heart and the wind blows into the car.
I turn to my right and for a quick minute I see Islana sitting beside me giving me a loving smile. I blink and she's gone. I look at the feather, maybe the alcohol was getting to me.
I'm home and my aunt welcomes me with coffee and a delicious dinner. It's 10 pm and I retire to my room, I flop on my bed after a change of clothes and stare at the stars thinking of Daylon. The white Angel of my dreams.
The moonlight illuminates my darkroom and a gentle breeze blows in. I hear a whisper coming from the cupboard and I bring out the magical book from it. I drop it on the floor and sit in front of it with my legs crossed.
The moon shines its light on the book and the wind blows it open to that exact page with the chant. I knew she was doing this.
"A witch's gaze and Hell's blaze" I begin and a strong wind blows in, "the angels of the dark and the demons of the night" the wind becomes stronger and the aura floods my room, "obey my words and remove the haze." My skin begins to crawl, "hearken unto me and give me your might"
The book begins to glow an eerie purple and I scurry away from it, before I could do or say anything a purple orb comes out of the book and hits me straight in the eyes blinding me.
"I can't see!" I panic as I held my eyes trying to get up from the floor, "ahhhh!" I scream in pain as I feel my eyes set ablaze, I remove my hands and open them forcefully, I could see my room.
I look around frantically, I wasn't blind anymore and the book was still there,
"My eyes" I didn't feel the pain anymore and I rushed to get the hand mirror on my reading desk. I gasp in shock as my left eye had turned to another color with the right remaining the same.
It was red. Red as blood.
I don't believe it, I trace my left eye with my fingers still in doubt that it just changed its color,
"What's happening to me?" I ask the universe and Islana. I needed someone to explain to me what was going on.
But there was no one.
"No no no!!" I throw the book at the wall in anger, I was feeling hopeless. It's been two hours and I couldn't get my left eye to return to normal. I read every page and said every chant that was in the book but nothing happened.
"Why is this happening?" I sink to the floor with my knees to my chest and my head buried in them. I sob quietly, I had no idea what to do, why did I have to say the words? Why?
Flashback...
I was in my room arranging, it was a mess. I can be very messy at times.
"I'm done, I'll go do the dishes now" I was only 8 years old and I did all the chores since Tiffany was always on her phone and Cody was still little. I didn't mind as long as I got to spend time with my family.
My stomach growls, I hadn't had anything since I woke up and it was almost time for lunch, "oh no! I haven't made lunch yet!" I shriek at the sudden realization and rush downstairs to cook something.
I hear arguing as I near the kitchen, I slow down and listen in, it was mom and dad.
"No and I do not care! You promised to take Cody for a checkup while I worked an extra shift!" My mom yells at dad,
"But you're a nurse you should be able to do it yourself right?" My dad chides, he wasn't concerned about it,
"You're always like this! Ever since Eris was born you've become so irresponsible and rude! What's wrong with you?" She screams at him once more, my parents were fighting again, because of me.
"Well, it's not easy you know! There's pressure from work and I'm doing my best!" He replies in the same tone,
"I know work's hard but it doesn't give you the excuse to break your promises! You even promised to go for the PTA at Eris' school but you didn't" she points out his faults one by one,
"I didn't want to be seen with that monster" he defends himself,
"That monster is your daughter!!"
"She looks nothing like me, have you seen her hair?! Eyes? So how Is she my daughter?"
"So tell me, where is my baby?" My mom folds her arms,
"Why don't you tell me the freak you slept with?"
"You bastard!! How dare you—" she sights my figure near the kitchen door, "Eris?"
My dad turns his gaze to look at me, I did not just witness that. The tears had fallen and my breathing became unstable. I take a step back still trying to process everything.
So Tiffany was right. I am a monster.
I swallow my tears at the harsh reality I found myself in. I walk into the kitchen after a few moments to do the dishes. I didn't mind if they said more hurtful things, it didn't matter, I had work to do and I wasn't close to being done.
Flashback over...
I rest the back of my head on the wall as the tears fell, I am a monster. A gentle breeze blows into my room revealing my mutated eye, I was a hybrid.
The remembrance of my past only brought me more pain, it's always been like that, I was always unworthy of love. I felt so unsure when I met Debbie...
Debbie. Would she still love me after what I've become? Would she still be able to look at me with love? Would she be able to look into these eyes?
Eyes as red as blood.
More tears flow at the painful thought of her leaving me for the monster I've become. Everyone would leave me, even Daylon. Daylon. My thoughts wander to him, would he still accept me?
