VICTORY

I had expected our journey to be full of obstacles and disruptions from the Goddess but our journey was so peaceful and nice that we arrived at Abariba at exactly 8 Am just as mum said we would.

"Firstly, we need to get a coffin," mum said and we searched and got one.

But then I felt we were being attacked because after purchasing the coffin none of the people had the sacrificial offerings mum said we needed or if they had none accepted to sell.

We tried and tried till it got really late. The time was already 8 pm. We had spent all day long trying to get things but succeeded in getting only the coffin. It was so hurting to my soul.

"Thought we told you we will be back. Well, we are back and we came but in a bad luck way," a voice whispered in my ears and I stared around but saw no one.

"Mum, can you write the list of the things needed for me" I mumbled, taking a second to look at mum who looked so weary and exhausted. Her breathing wasn't even steady anymore.

"But for what son?"
