💝🎁 Birthday Present Part Six:
The moment my fingers came in contact with the necklace, she screamed.
Not just the normal shrill screaming.
Her voice was hoarse, unlike her soft, quite tone.
I knew it wasn’t her acting this time around, it was Nimi or whoever was possessing my daughter through the necklace.
She was about to run, but I held her. Today na today, this necklace must be removed.
My husband, the maids, Sophie and Jasmine came to the parlor immediately, obviously to see what the shouting was about.
“Are all of you mad why are you here, take my children inside now” I shouted at the maids, but it took them a while to obey. If not I was busy holding Hephzibah I would have beaten all of them.
The maids took Sophie and Jasmine away, just like me they wanted to help and know what was wrong with their sister but I didn’t want them to see her in this state.
“What happened” my husband asked, panic didn’t look good on him because he was a naturally calm and put together kind of person.
“I tried to remove the necklace. You try to remove the necklace while I hold her” He nodded.
As his fingers touched the chain of the necklace she became violent again.
She was shouting and kicking in all directions.
Then with strength a strength I didn’t recognize, she released herself from my hold and scampered away immediately.
My husband and I rushed after but she was fast, extremely fast. Sometimes it was as if she was flying and not running.
She entered the guest room, (which was the first room upstairs) and locked the door.
Even from outside we could still hear her shouting in the same horse voice that definitely didn’t belong to her.
I begged her to open the door in tears but my husband suggested that we let her calm down before trying to get her out.
After sometime she calmed down and my husband bursted the door open since it was locked from the inside.
In the darkness of the room, I saw Hephzibah’s small body curved into a fetus position on the bare ground.
My husband wanted to carry her but I stopped him. I was still determined to remove the necklace.
I turned on the light and knelt beside her. Quietly, I moved my hands to her neck. The liquid in the pendant was calm as if it was also asleep.
My husband stood at the door as a precaution measure in case she woke up and wanted to run away.
Slowly without making a noise (I even stopped breathing) I successfully removed the necklace from her neck. Instantly the liquid in the necklace start stirring like it did before but my daughter wasn’t affected by it.
I had separated her from the necklace.
I held it up for my husband to see, he gave a sigh of relief and swept her into his arms and took her to her room.
I went to my own room and locked the necklace in a drawer with the intention of destroying it first thing the next morning.
The next morning was a Monday and the girls were preparing to go to school. I was so eager to see Hephzibah, I wanted to notice a change in her but as I saw her, I was disappointed.
She was wearing the necklace again.
“How are you still wearing it?” I asked her resting the urge to shout in frustration.
She looked at me pointedly but didn’t reply me, she turned and walked away. It was like cold water was poured on me. There was something about her eyes that echoed danger.
I ran to the computer connected to the CCTV cameras desperate for an answer.
I shuffled through the clips of last night and saw her walking through the hall way. She looked awake but the way she walked and bumped herself into objects suggested that she was still sleeping.
I followed her movement till she entered my room and stood in front of the same drawer I locked the necklace in.
She seemed to linger there for a while before opening the drawer with ease as if it wasn’t locked. But I locked the drawer, I’m very sure I did…
Then I saw my daughter in her half asleep state put on the necklace.
