BURN for Better or Worse (COMPLETED)

Chapter 61

“What’s going on?” Amara questions the two sisters.
“Amara, go… go back inside.” Sandra stammers, fearing that her secret has been exposed. She can’t lose her son and she knows Amara to be as loyal as a dog to Randall.
“Who is this?” Her eyes fall on Barbra, sure she heard everything, but wants to hear it from Sandra.
“That is non- of your business.” Sandra snaps at her son’s wife suddenly annoyed by her insistence. “Go away from here.” She commands firmly, but Amara is just as stubborn. Her husband was mentioned, hence she is bent on finding out the truth.
“No, I’m not going anywhere till I know why this woman says she is the mother of Randall.”
“That is rubbish” Barbra pipes in, Sandra is not the only one who has something to lose. Duma has no clue that Nqabayomzi is not his biological son and the man fell in love with his so called son from the moment he laid eyes on him.

Barbra grips her sister’s hand and begins to lug her down the driveway, Sandra is oblivious to where they are going, but follows still. And Amara? There is no way she is going to let them leave without an explanation.
“What is wrong with you? I said mind your own business, you should be taking care of Liyana in there.” It can’t be so easy for Sandra to lie her way out of this one, she knows it hence the anger that has risen inside her.
“I will tell Randall about this, let him be the one asking questions.” Due to their rudeness, Amara finds a need to throw in a threat.
“You wouldn’t.” Oh Sandra, why the shocked expression? You’re talking to Randall’s muse.
Amara folds her arms across her chest, boldly glaring at the twisted sisters. Barbra doesn’t take threats lightly, she is a witch and does not bow down to anyone.

The witch steps back, crouches down on the ground. Her hand finds soil in the midst of the grass, she draws a circle and a triangle in the middle. Amara observes with wonder, her mind ignorant of the supernatural.
“Creatures of the night arise and…” Sandra nudges her sister when she realizes what she is about to do. This will not only kill Barbra, but her entire family.
Everyone who has Barbra’s blood running through their veins, that includes her second Okolie twin who hasn’t been introduced to his ancestors. Nqabayomzi Biyase... the Okolie ancestors can only reach half of him because of the twin bond between him and Randall, otherwise he needs to be fully introduced to his ancestors.   
“Do you know who she is? The future queen of Ashanti.” Sandra whispers to her sister, Barbra shows no care. They have been found out and they had promised to keep this secret. Her sister saved her in there and she feels a need to return the favour. 
“What is she doing?” Amara’s voice quavers, a smidgeon of fear finding her, she turns back to the house as she thinks of calling Neo. “What’s going on? Who are you really?”

“I can make her disappear, no one will know what happened to her.” Barbra is as stubborn as the devil, the sisters ignore Amara’s questions as they are engrossed on keeping their secret covered. 
“Are you deaf? She’s an Okolie, a queen in the eyes of the ancestors. If you’re ready to die then go ahead, but you are not taking me down with you.” Sandra argues, Amara is glazed in confusion. She can’t hear the words uttered by the duo. Barbra rises to her feet, hatred fills her eyes as she ogles at Amara.
“What exactly did you hear Amara?” Sandra.
Trying to see if they are safe or not.
“That you two have been lying to Randall his whole life, you are not his mother, this witch is...” Amara points her head towards Barbra who has birthed a new hatred for her daughter in-law.
“Who are you calling a witch? I am not Sandra, you stupid brat. Don’t try me because when I’m done with you, this luxury will seem like it was all a dream.” The witch throws a threat of which Amara is not fazed by.
“You’re not God, you can’t touch me.” Daunting and daring, Amara stands head to head with Makhafula’s co-conspirator.
“Stop please.” Sandra slips in between them, she knows how the fight will begin and end. Amara won’t even lift a finger because the Okolies are at her beck and call. “Amara, you can’t tell Randall about this.”
