16 Fortune Telling

Manny☆ & Keya♡ POV

Rita the Psychic POV

I was awakened by the Spirits and they were whispering about some powerful beings that were to visit my shop today. I was anxious and didn't want to go in thinking about what happened the last time some powerful beings came into the shop! They weren't happy with the information that the Spirits relayed to them through me! And I ended up in the hospital for a week! That was last month and it's still fresh in my memory. I'm not looking for a repeat, but I really need the money so.. I know what, I'll send them over to that couple, YEAH! That'll work! With that plan in mind, I get up ready to tackle this day. After my morning rituals I head out to the shop. I park in my spot, unlock the door and start lighting the incense and black candles to get the right ambiance going.

I hear the overlapping wispy voices of the Spirits, "They're here," "Here!" "They are coming," "Coming!" "Powerful these one's," "These one's!" "Stronger" "Stronger than the last!" "Last!" "The Strongest I've felt so far!" "They don't know," "Don't know their potential," "No not yet!" "But it's there inside," "Inside of them" "I feel it, pulsating from their very core!" "Yes, it's there!" "I feel it too, it's powerful!" "It has the potential for great light," "Or great darkness!" "Send them," "Yes, send them to Lucia" "Yes, Lucia and Edvard are powerful enough to handle these one's!" "YES!" They all said together.

Just then the door opened and I heard the little 'DING DING' of the bell hanging over it. I was terrified to say the least but I had made up my mind to send them to Lucia and Edvard, the witch/wizard couple of Ravenswood..

I can't believe Kane did that to me and Ja'el, he's worst than Manny! And then to make things even worse Vic and Yahrie heard us! I was so embarrassed, I just wanted to bury myself in the perfect peace that Manny brings me. I snuggled into him and just calmed down. But after awhile I got down because I knew we had things to do and places to be today.

"Let's finish cooking so we can eat, Papi." I say and we finish cooking, I'm surprised that he can cook. I try to teach my younger brothers how to do a little something in the kitchen. But honestly they are so bad, they'll burn cereal and milk! Lol, hopefully they'll get it one day. We ate and said goodbye to Vic and Yahrie and head downtown to go shopping. I'm not tryna get too much stuff, because I already have more clothes than I know what to do with.

While driving he says that we are gonna make a quick stop by a psychic shop.. the hell, I don't believe in talking to people like that! I'm really trying not to look at him look he has lost his ever loving mind. I hope he knows what he's doing. We pull into the parking lot and he turned to me..

------☆------

I really wish she'd stop looking at me like I'm crazy, that fucking nightmare was insane and I need her on my side about this! "Babe I just want to see if they can tell me something about the nightmare I had okay? That's it, that's all then we can go about our day. I need you to trust me and support my decision." I say earnestly holding her face staring at her intently.

She leans into my hand, eyes closed and sighs, "Papi, I am forever on your side, I trust you wholly and you have my full support." She says sincerely but then looked serious saying, "What I don't trust are these demon worshipping ass psychics! They ain't right Bae! I'm gonna pray before we go in there okay, is that okay, Papi?"

She asks me softly, she truly cares and I love her more for it. I smile, "Yes Baby let's pray together." I hold her hands gently laying my forehead on hers and we prayed. I need to take her to church with me, my family goes every Sunday and I'm sure they were wondering what happened to me yesterday and why I didn't show up but we'll be there next Sunday.

After praying I get out and open her door and we go inside. I hate the irritating little bell over the door. And how it smells in here, maybe this was a bad idea.. We see a lady sitting behind a round table with a red tablecloth and a crystal ball on it. She stands up and she literally resembles a real life gypsy with her long wavy dark hair, weird jewelry and layers of different colored clothing, none of it matched. How do you even leave the house and not match?!

"Hello my name is Rita, how can I be of uh..assistance today?" She looks tense and kind of nervous, wtf is her problem?

Rita POV

Oh My I can see the aura around these two and it's massive. It's literally exuding from their beings! They seem to be emitting a soft golden glow, well the female is at least. The longer I look at the male the more I see an underlying reddish tint and it sort of looks like he's on fire! Holy Shit who are these two?! With a small smile I motion them to have a seat in the chairs across from me.

He looks me up and down as if judging my appearance. And she looked as if she'd rather be anywhere else other than here. He finally says, "I'm Manny and I just had a question about a nightmare I had recently and want to know if you can give me any insight into what it means." He says with his eyebrow raised, looking quite uncertain, damn he was fine! I smiled and hit 'em with the line I've used a thousand times,

"Well I let the Spirits guide me and what they see, I'll interpret and pass along to you." I see several of the candle's light brighten then flicker dangerously that happens, rarely.. But I press on extending my hands over the crystal ball gyrating my fingers, my head back swaying slightly. I start hearing the Spirits raspy voices overlapping again,

"They're too powerful" "Powerful for you" "You won't be able to handle it!" "Send them!" "Yes, send them" "Send them Now!"

"But what about his dream?" I ask them, and that's when I feel an excruciating pain all within me! It felt like my brain was being squeezed and my body was on fire! I screamed bloody murder for I don't even know how long! I tried to move but my body was paralyzed in pain, I was stuck in this position, my head back, arms and hands extended in front of me. Then I feel this presence around me that I've never felt before and it said,

"You are meddling with things that you shouldn't young one! Send them on their way or suffer severely!" It was a beautiful but bitter voice and it didn't have to tell me twice! I was instantly given back control of my body and shakily tried to compose myself. They were looking at me like I grew an extra head!

"I'm sorry, but I'm not able to fulfill your request. But I can give you the information to someone who can. They are much more capable and stronger than I to deal in these matters." I say somewhat out of breath, trying to in so many words ask them politely to get the hell out! I grab the card from the shelf behind me and quickly slide it across the table to them. They looked at me in shock, disbelief and a bit of disappointment but he took the card asking,

"How much?" I frowned confused, "How much?" I ask. "For this session? Don't we have to pay for your services?" He quipped, Oh I chuckle nervously, "I wasn't able to provide any service so, it's no cost to you." I say impatiently I really want them to leave so I lie, "Now if you will I have an appointment arriving shortly." I say while standing and walking towards the door with my arm extended for them to leave. She got up and fiercely walked pass me muttering, "Rude bitch!" And he strolls pass not saying anything but looking annoyed. Once they were gone I blew out a breath I didn't know I was holding, Whew!

------♡------

"Well that was a waste of time, and what the hell was all the screaming about, damn weirdo!" I'm pissed, I could've been checking in on my family! Ughhh! And then he says, "Let's go check these people out first baby then I'll take you shopping ok?" Jeez, "Fine! But they better explain what's going on or I might have to headbutt someone!"

We drive to the address, park and walk up to the stone house. But before we can knock on the door it opens and a lady that looks like Goldie Hawn smiles and says politely, "Welcome, Rukeya and Manuel." Okay that's not creepy at all.. me and Manny look at each other shocked before turning back to her. "My name is Lucia and I've been expecting you, please come in." Now that we are here, I really don't want to go inside. Goodness I pray he knows what the hell he's doing!
