Stucks Between The Two Alpha

I picked everything I needed in my new home and put them in my luggage. Pick some books and photos and arrange them neatly in the luggage. I dragged the luggage out of my room and went downstairs to the sitting room where all my family stood to bade me goodbye.. I bade goodbye to my family and went outside to see a carriage waiting for me outside. I got inside and carted off my belongings.  

I'm Susan Theodore, a human girl, who was blessed with the gift of prophecy in the town of Kansas. It was believed that everyone who was born with this gift is possessed by a demon including me. So my parents decide to sell me out to Father Antoine of the Catholic Church when they find out I have this gift of prophesying.

I remember telling them about a vision I had which is related to a woman in the next villa close to us and that's how they found out about my gift. 

In the vision, I saw a flash of light and the woman was in labour. She died in the labour leaving the child behind. 

I couldn't keep it to myself so I decided to tell my parents about it during breakfast. Unfortunately three days after my prophecy came to pass and the woman died in labour leaving her son behind. With that my parents were so furious and decided to sell me to father Antoine . It was believed that whoever was sold to a Reverend father for a period of seven years would be free from the demonic spirit.

 This was so strange that many of the gullible have been sold out to different Reverend father's and I Susan Theodore is not an exception but also a part of this circle.

Not less than 3 Hours the carriage came to a halt in front of a villa close to the Catholic Church and father Antoine came out to welcome me in with a smile on his face. 

" Welcome child" He said with the rosary in his hand and I bowed my head slightly to show respect.

" Thank you Father" I replied and I followed him inside. I look around if I will see another person who has the same gift as me but find none. Seems like I'm the only one who has been sold to the Reverend father. The first prayer that came to my mind was for this place to be comfortable and be like a home to me .

He showed me around and I settled in my room which was painted with blue paint and the portrait of the virgin Mary hanging on the wall with other different portraits. I arranged my stuff in the room and went into the bathroom to have a cold bath. I'm so exhausted from the trip that I immediately slump on the bed after bathing. The bed looks comfortable and soft like the one I'm using back at home. I heard a gentle knock on the door and I quickly slipped on a purple gown and went towards the door to open it. 

" Do you like the room?" Father Antoine asked and I nodded with a smile.

" Alright come downstairs and have dinner. I also have some things to tell you" He said with a pair of glasses on his face.

" Alright father. Give me 5 minutes I will join you shortly" I said and he walked back to the sitting room. 

I joined him shortly and dinner was served. Meat and vegetables were served and he said a brief prayer and I started digging on my food.

" Are you that hungry?" He asked and I smiled in embarrassment. I should have taken it slowly.

" If you need more you can tell me " he said, eating his food gently and I nodded.

" What's your name?" He asked

" I'm Susan Theodore and you're father Antoine" I said and he nodded with a smile.

" Seems like you already know my name" he said

" Yes my parents told me about you" I reply calmly with my green eyes complementing the green dress I'm wearing and my Burnett falling loosely on my back.

" Then I guess you already know why you're here" Father Antoine said and I nodded.

" Yes father " I replied

" All you have to do is tell me about your dreams and I will set you free from the demonic spirit" He said and I drank water from my glass.

" All my dreams?" I asked and he reply with a " yes."

" Okay father" with that the meal came to an end and I went back to my room and had a rest.

Everything was going so smoothly that I even forgot I'm here to be set free from the demonic spirit that everyone believes it's the reason behind the gift of prophecy . I didn't even miss my parents that much because I was allowed to do things kids of my age do . I felt comfortable without any worries and to me this place is like a home far away from home. Father Antoine is so kind and nice, he got me everything I needed and even taught me how to pray the rosary but things started changing exactly three months after.

I went to bed so early and had a dream as real as breathing. In the dream, I saw the father having sex with a woman called Lily Wolfe. I remember seeing her at a time when I just came into the house. She was so pretty and always seemed to be in a hurry anytime she visited. I woke up from the dream and sat down on my bed for sometime. I couldn't keep the affair in my head owing to the fact that father Antoine had informed me to always tell him about my dreams and that it will help him to deliver me from the evil spirit quickly.

The next day after confession on a cold Saturday, I summon up courage and talk to the father.
