Earnestine drove into the ice cream shop. She alighted from her car and sauntered into the shop. Her heart skipped three beats when she saw Erin, she closed her eyes trying to catch her breath thinking about those sweet blue eyes she had, and the perfect green hair that flowed down her back almost reaching her waist. She had not seen such a beauty.
“I guess you want ice cream again.” Erin said with a smile.
“Yeah, I do.” Earnestine said, as she sat down on a seat waiting to be attended to. “Frozen yogurt.” She reminded.
Erin grinned, as she passed her the frozen yogurt. Earnestine was doing some research on dark art, and the histories of dark witches, her mind slowly drifted to her phone not noticing that Erin couldn't get her gaze off her. “How long have you been in town?” Erin asked.
“A few days.” Earnestine answered. She peeked at her and then back to her phone, she was finding engaging facts about the rituals. She had to go back to the last events of Weston Hills before the witches fled their town. It dawned on her that such a ritual never existed. She locked her phone and dropped it on the table. Erin shrugged, it wasn't nice to irritate a shopper.
“I think I will be on my way,” Earnestine said as she paid her off. She was almost at the glass transparent door when Erin spoke up.
“Can I have your phone contact?”
“Sure.” Earnestine retorted.
Hayley was at the sports field with Wendy watching the red tigers play football, she just loved their team and wanted to be a part of it, but all her hopes were ruined by Nick and her siblings.
“How was your night?” Wendy said venturing into a conversation.
“There was nothing good about last night.” Hayley replied nattily.
“What happened?” Wendy asked.
“My sisters almost took someone precious away from me.” Hayley said.
“I want to see them, and kick some ass.” Wendy let out.
“You don't want to, they are pretty powerful...” Hayley said with a grin, and they chortled. Witches almost escaped her lips, but thank heavens she didn't say the word.
Earnestine drove into the house with Wendy and Hayley in the car. She had gone to pick them up from school after she left Erin's shop. Wendy loved what she saw, the house was really beautiful, the fence, the green grasses, and of course the corridor. She imagined what the inside would look like. Wendy widened her eyes in astonishment when they took a step into the house, she couldn't believe her eyes, but this house was virtually like heaven. The delicate chandeliers. The massive staircase, and the plain wooden floor.
“I love this place.” Wendy chuckled.
“They have decided to make up for their evil deeds, by bringing the right person at the wrong time.” Sabrina said while sitting in the living room. She only darted at them before she got her mind back to her favorite tv show. All she did every day was watch cartoons, play games, and practice her magic. Hayley ignored her and was stepping upstairs whereas Wendy was attempting to have a conversation
“Nice to meet you,” Wendy said waving at Sabrina who was staring at her intently. She felt skeptical about this girl, but she wasn't very sure about it. “Go have a chit-chat with your friend.” Sabrina said, still wondering if it was the same girl that was about to be killed the aforesaid night. She shrugged getting her full attention back to the television. Wendy's smile faded when she noticed that Hayley didn't care a bit.
“She's the bully sister, Wendy.” Hayley told Wendy signaling her to come upstairs.
“Have a nice time.” Earnestine told
Wendy and Hayley, as she took a turn to the kitchen. She couldn't wait for it to get dark, so she'd take her bath, and chat with Erin. All she wanted was something to cool her off, she had started regretting why they couldn't just find another human.
Janeka and Freya were at the library. They were studying their magic while Earnestine peeped through the half-opened door. She cleared her throat, scanning through the library, as she took slow steps in.
“We should have done the rituals.” Earnestine confessed, as she mumbled a spell, and the doors got locked.
“I attempted looking for the consequences of the rituals on the internet, but it was a whole bunch of shit.”
“I don't trust the internet on supernatural stuff.” Janeka interrupted. Freya was paying less attention, Earnestine knew she would never be interested in whatever she had to say until she got over with what happened recently. She felt disgruntled, but she was protecting the sister she adored the most.
“Why are you informing us? You know it's the wrong time for this. The deed has been done, we just have to wait for the consequences.” Freya interrupted glaring at her. Earnestine looked away. “I was protecting Hayley's friend.” She told them.
“Of course, you were.” Janeka uttered.
Wendy was stunned, all she ever wished for was to find a book that discussed the history of the town she had been living in for years. Hayley passed into her room after she finished in the bathroom.
“What are you doing?” Hayley asked as she opened the closet keeping her eyes fixed on Wendy who she noticed was absorbed by the book, but Hayley didn't care. It wasn't her witch book, so there was nothing to worry about.
“It's a bit of a history of Weston Hills. Where did you get this book from?” Wendy asked.
“I found it somewhere.” Hayley said pulling up her dress and sitting on the bed. Wendy rolled her eyes, something told her she was lying, and Hayley must know very much about the things in this book.
“Do you know about witches?” Wendy asked. That was all she had been seeing in the book.
