Blood On My Hands – Episode 13

BLOOD ON MY HANDS EPISODE 13

 

“Please be advised their is a wolf on the loose devouring people, you are all advised not to walk around at awkward hours and always ensure you are walking in groups, we are doing everything possible to ensure we find it and ki*ll it” I switched of the radio after listening to the announcement.

For the past few months a wolf had been terrorising our community, so many poeple had lost their lives and all efforts to cage it had proved futile. Now we had to minimise our movements.

“You should move in with me” Geo had suggested

“I can’t move in with you, let’s get married first” I had told him. My mother would give a fit if i dared to live with a man, cohabitation was a no go area for her and I had to respect her beliefs.

“Thabiso put that down please” I yelled from the kitchen

“But mummy”

“No buts young man, you can’t be playing with a kite in my house”

“Okay can I go outside?”

“Baby it’s late you will play tomorrow okay”

“Fine” He shouted causing me to laugh

“Sorry baby just sit down and watch something”

He had been troubling me quiet a lot lately and I couldn’t wait for the week to end so he could go back to mum’s house. I loved spending time with him but he was too naughty for my liking and the pregnancy wasn’t helping at all. I had planned on letting mum know I was pregnant when she came to pick up Thabiso.

I finished making us dinner and dished up for us, we ate quietly because apparently Thabiso was mad at me.

“I am sorry my darling for making you upset okay?”

He just looked at me and frowned.

“You hate mummy now?”

“I love mummy”

“Now that’s my boy, tomorrow we will go to the park and you can play with your kite all you want”

“Seriously” He asked as he brightened up

“Yes baby”

“You are the best mummy” He smiled

I cleared the table after we were done eating then we sat down to watch some cartoons. It was a bit chilly so we covered ourselves with a small blanket.

I got up a few minutes later when there was a knock at the door.I wondered who could visit us that late because Geo was out of town and he was the only one that came to my house at any time.

“Talia?” I asked surprised she was at my door step

“Tamara” She smiled at me, she was dressed in a short black dress with black slippers.

“Won’t you let me in?”

“What do you want?”

“I want us to talk” She said softly

“About?”

“Tamara its cold here will you please let me in, I am not here to cause any trouble”

“I am sorry I can’t let you in” I said trying to close the door but she pushed me aside and walked in followed by one tall huge man.

“Talia”

“Shut up” She said as she locked the door

“Move” The man said

“No just go this is insane”

“You want to know what’s insane?” She asked

“This is insane” She said grabbing a knife and pointing it at me

“Mummy whose there?” Thabiso ran to the kitchen

“sh*t” I cursed under my breathe

“What do we have here?” Talia said moving to Thabiso

“Baby run” I said but she pulled his hand and carried him,

“Tamara you will cooperate or else I will slice this little thing right in your eyes”

“What do you want?” I cried out

“Your cooperation” She said walking to the living room and I followed her because she now had Thabiso in her hands and I didn’t want to in danger his life.

“Take a sit right there” The man said pointing to a couch on the other left side

“If you do anything you won’t live to tell the tale” She said as she tied Thabiso to a chair, I tried grabbing my phone but the man noticed what I was about to do, he grabbed my phone and threw it on the floor.

“Talia please do what ever you want to me but please leave my boy out of this”

“You are wrong, the boy has everything to do with this” She laughed

“Stop being a coward and let the boy go?” I yelled spiting in her face

She looked at me for a while then she punched me and I fell off, she hit me again and I bacame powerless then she told the man to tie me up.

“Mummy” Thabiso cried

“Talia please don’t do this”

“You haven’t seen anything yet” She yelled hitting me in the face again.

” D Thank you for your help, i will take it from here” She told the man handing him a small brown envelope

“Are you sure?”

“I am more than sure, this is my fight and I will fight it alone”

“Thank you madam, call again” The man said as they walked out

I heard the door open and close, I felt tears pour out of my eyes. How would I save my child out of this mess?

***************************

“Talia why are you doing this?”

“Tamara you provoked me, no one provokes me and goes away scott free”

“I am sorry please set us free we will never stand in your way again”

“I used to have a brother you know?” She asked

“What happened to him?” I asked trying to buy us a little time even though deep down I was trembling, I feared more for my baby

“I killed him” She said as a smile crossed her face

“You killed your own brother?” I asked with fear written all over my face

“And that’s not it all, I killed my father because he was stupid , i stabbed them both to death”

“God what have I gotten myself into?” I asked loudly

“Exactly my question, what have you gotten yourself into”

“You took away something that was very valuable to me and now I will take away something that is valuable to you”

“Talia Geo choose me I didn’t force him to be with me”

“If you had stayed away like I told you too we wouldn’t be in this place right now”

“Talia please”

“And now your son’s blood will be I’m your hands”

“You can’t ki*ll him he is innocent”

“Even my mother was innocent yet the man I called dad killed her, he killed her to make me weak but he gave me more strength” She yelled

” Nice ring you have on your finger” She said staring at my finger.

I didn’t know weather to respond or not, Talia was a demon I could see it in her face and provoking her even more would make her ki*ll my child.

“You want Geo? You can have him”

“I don’t want him anymore, but I want to see him suffer, when you suffer he will suffer as well”

“No”

“I have always wanted someone to love me but the people I love take me for granted, firstly my parents loved my brother more and when I met Geo i thought he would love me but he left me for you”

“Talia please I am sorry”

“I am doing this to teach all the filthy men out there a lesson”

“And you think you will get away with this?”

“You think I care if they hunt me down or not?”

“Talia let’s talk like civilised people”

“I have nothing to live for, am an animal and no one will ever love me so before I am arrested let me inflict the same pain you have inflicted on me”

“Please” I whispered as my baby cried

“Now shut the f**k up and watch me eat up this little brat to pieces” She said as she untied my son

“Nooooo” I screamed, she stopped what she was doing then got a clothe and stuffed it in my mouth that way I would not scream. Then she went back to untying him. He had tears in his eyes but he didn’t scream.

When she had untied him, she grabbed a knife and plunged it into his chest.

Tears rolled down my face as my little boy screamed, he was helpless and I couldn’t do anything to help him out. She pulled the knife out and stabbed him again.

Thabiso gasped for air as blood started pouring out then Lia did the most undespicable thing, she started sucking my son’s blood.

“Was she using my child for rituals?” I cried as I kicked my legs trying to free my self, the sight was heartbreaking what kind of person would do that to another person’s child.

Just when I thought I had seen enough, Lia slowly transformed into an animal and she let out a loud howl as she ripped my son’s body apart. Tears were pouring like rainfall from my eyes and the pain I felt at that moment was undescribable. I felt numb the sight before me shook me, I didn’t know if I would ever be fine after what I saw.
