Letter

" To Reynard, we'll known as Rey among his peers ... Amasa and Amunet. Kaimi and Zera as well. "

That's how the letter I found started. On my eighteenth birthday, I, Amunet, had found my mother missing and next to all the sweetly wrapped gifts is a damned letter from her.

" Five children, that I've raised and treasured, whom I now have to leave, I want you to know ... understand something. You were born with a purpose in literal sense, your births were planned, and Kaimi's plus Zera's adoption was structured. Your very existence this day has nothing to do with fate. Twenty years ago, a gruesome ordeal occurred, and at my mental death did the idea of you form. Now, a mother's love is deep and true. However, there is much more to be fulfilled and achieved.

Five names have been written on the paper attached to this letter. These five were involved in the ordeal, three directly and two indirectly. I distinctly remember one chuckling and whispering into my ear,

' Isn't your situation gravely? '

Well ... gravely it was, except at the end of it, we'll all be six fit deep in this cursed world. Your purpose is to bring these people down in the cruelest way possible, and to do this, you must all use your ɗarƙsıɗes.

PS. It's useless to look for those gone far away.

Love: mum. "

I flinch at the use of dark sides. How did she know? I'm I not the only one, and if so, what have the others been hiding? A myriad of questions that causes me to scratch the skin across my wrist in frustration. This is bad for me.

I hold my bated breath as I turn the letter to look at the paper with the listed names.

" Alex Jordan ... coach of Blaze basketball team, the most upcoming and promising team. "

" Richard Woods ... CEO of Mirrored company and a major sponsor of Blaze basketball team. "

" Chris Rixel ... founder and owner of Zzz Tech Organisation. "

" Dave Reeds ... businessman with the second-largest luxury hotels chain in the world. "

" Zelda Kart ... wold famous model and influencer. "

I say all their names softly to afraid to pronounce it loudly. Click! Photo taken and sent to the rest. I wonder how they'll react.

I pace up and down the kitchen, tracing my steps around the island table where the life altering letter had lain.

Kaimi is the first to come. He is simply dressed in a white shirt and light blue sweatpants. His cloudy grey eyes, which appear and disappear behind his hair, are piercing in the morning light. His struggling to keep his short, shaggy, furry hair out of his eyes. His strong build outlines itself under his shirt and his face is blush pink from sleep.

" Happy eighteenth! " He practically growls as he swings the open the fridge. " Eighteen things on me today. "

Rey is behind him, all perfect in the morning as usual. His hair is extremely short, if anything the shortest among the boys. It's still curly though.

" Happy Birthday Amunet and many more years stuck with me! " His laughter rings all around us. It makes me think of the dew falling from the leaves and blades of grass, sparkling in the sunlight. His in a jovial mood ... so far no-one has seen the photos of the letter. How much will their moods change once they do ?
