It was a stormy evening. Charles was driving in a small neighborhood, with his wife Jessie sitting in the passenger seat. They were on the way to Lilly Wilson’s house. Because they had an appointment with her that night.

After a few circles to locate her house, they finally spotted it in a distance. But they were not sure if that was her house. Because it was very hard for them to see outside the window, with that heavy rain. Even that, they decided to go to that house, to ask where Madam Lilly lived.

So Charles parked his car beside the sidewalk and they grabbed their umbrellas on the back seat. They stepped out of the car, cover themselves, and ran on the porch.

Charles rang the doorbell. “Do think there’s someone home?” He anxiously asked Jessie.

Jessie soughed, “I don’t know love.” She looked at the time on her watch, “We are two hours late, I hope she lets us explain ourselves.”

“Huh, me too.” He rang the doorbell again.

A few minutes after Charles rang the bell. The door unlocks and opened slowly. An old woman with short grey curly hair, in round glasses and a pink flower dress on her, glared at them in a half-opened door.

“Hello, good evening ma’am," Charles said to her, at the same time he was getting closer to the door.

That old woman answered back with a serious voice, “Good evening, can I help you?”

“We are looking for a woman named Lilly Wilson. Do you know where she lived, please?”

She smiled and said, “Well, I think you are at the house talking to her.”

“You are Madam Lilly Wilson?” Charles asked her with an excited voice.

She nodded her head slowly, “Yes, am her, and who are you, please?”

“My name is Charles Jones and this is my wife Jessie Jones. We have an appointment with you.”

“Oh, you are the Jones couple who booked an appointment with me two weeks ago?”

Jessie replied, “Yes ma’am, we are them.”

“Your late.” Madam Lilly said with a furious voice and gave them a disappointed stare.

Jessie came closer to the door and started to apologize, “We are very sorry for being so late ma’am. We got lost on the way here, because of that bad weather. Please, forgive us.”

Madam Lilly made a smirked face and rolled her eyes. She step aside, opened her door wide, and told them to enter inside.

They said thank you and walked inside.

Madam Lilly told them to put their umbrellas in a blue bucket behind the door, remove their shoes, and put them beside that bucket. After that, they follow her into the living room. She said, “Please, take a sit.”

Charles and Jessie sat beside each other on a two-seat sofa. Madam Lilly sat on her armchair, crossed her arms and legs, and asked them, “Tell me what is going on? And why do you want to see me?”

Jessie started to explain to her with tears in her eyes, “Ever since we get married eighteen years ago. We lived a normal, quiet, and happy life together. We are been blessed with so many things in our lives and we are very grateful for it. But one thing we have never been blessed with and until now we are still seeking one is our very own child.”

She wiped her tears on her cheeks, Charles embraced her and she continued, “We are been trying to conceive a baby for many years. We saw numerous doctors and do all sorts of treatments. But unfortunately, nothing has been worked. So we came to see you, to ask for your help please.”

“But...who told you about me?”

“A friend of mine.”

“What did tell you?”

“Well, she told me that you are the best Sorcery in the world and she guaranteed me, that you are the only one who can help us.”

“How long have you been trying to get pregnant?”

“For about sixteen years, ma’am.”

“So what do you do for a living?”

“I have my Coffee Shop and he's a dentist.”

“But what the doctors told you and your husband about the complication you are facing?”

“Well, they all said there’s nothing wrong with us, maybe it’s not the time. But, you know, am not getting younger, my chances to get pregnant begin to fade away.”

“But if the doctors are not able to help, what made you guys think, that I can?” Madam Lilly was very curious.

Jessie looked a Charles with white eyes and bend her head slowly.

Charles quickly said, “Many people said that you are the best Sorcery in the world. You help many people in need and most of them come successful. So we were thinking, maybe you can help us too.” They begged her, “Please help us, please. You are the only hope. Please help us.”

Madam Lilly very well, that she needs to evoke the Demons just to grant their wishes. However, the results will never turn out perfect. Because that child will be born cursed and grow up as an evil person, because of the sacrifices. But when she heard the desperation in their voices and saw the sadness in their eyes. She felt so bad for them, so agreed to help them.

They were so overjoyed and started to thank Madam Lilly. Because she said yes, she will help them.

Madam Lilly said, “Ok, now we are going to work. She pointed her finger to a door beside the staircase and said, “Go inside that closet on your right. Remove your clothes and accessories. Leave everything inside and come back here.”

“Do we need to remove all our clothes on us?” Charles asked her with a shy voice.

Madam Lilly chuckled and shook her head. She said, “No, I don’t want to flash with your hockey stick. What I meant to say, is both of removing everything. But stays only in your clothes.”

They felt relief the way Madam Lilly said it. So they got up on the sofa and walked inside that closet.

They removed their clothes and accessories. Just put their accessories inside her handbag and hang her bag on a coat stand, with their clothes on it and they walked out of the closet.

“Are you ready?” Madam Lilly asked them.

They nodded their heads with her.

Madam Lilly stood up and said, “Ok, good. Come with me.”

They followed her upstairs to a room on the second floor. She held the door handle and warned them, “Do not touch anything.” She opened the door wide and told them to enter inside.

Their hair stood up on the backs of their necks when they looked around that room. They are so surprised to see all those things. Madam Lilly said with a loud tone of voice, “Do be afraid, had faith in me and everything will be ok.”

She made them kneel-sitting with their faces turned to each other. She told them to keep their eyes shut, don't speak, relax, and had faith in her words.

She put a black robe on her and tied a red rope around her waist. She lighted up two black candles and put them in the middle of Charles and Jessie, with two teddy bears, one pink and one blue. She starts doing her voodoo things and her procedures go for about three hours.

Madam Lilly sent them to a bathroom on the first floor to clean their selves. Because they were covered in blood chickens and birds feathers.

She took their clothes and shoes to the bathroom and told them when they are finished, come back to the living room.

After Charles and Jessie clean their selves, they go back to the living room. Madam Lilly gave them a small bottle of medicine that she arranged herself and instructed them, “Drink this for two weeks, two times daily. But starting tomorrow morning and you will all see your results. You may go home now.”

Jessie took the bottle in hand, wrapped it up in a plastic bag, and put it inside her handbag.

“How much is arrived, please?” Charles asked Madam Lilly.

Madam Lilly thought and said, “15k.”

Charles removed his wallet from his pocket, counts the money in front of Madam Lilly, and gave her.

Madam Lilly said, “Sorry, I don’t money in my hands. Put inside that gold bowl on the table, please.”

Charles put her money inside that bowl, they thanked Madam Lilly for everything and left her house.

For the whole two weeks, Charles and Jessie did exactly what Madam Lilly instructed them to do and they wait for their results.
