The Darkside of the Moon
“Granny Minama!”
The old woman rushes upstairs to her room; Demika’s eyes sharp and knowing as they land on her granddaughter. Granny Minama is a thick furrowed brown-skinned cheerful fellow in her 70s, her size as an old woman will tell she was ginormous plus-sized woman at her young age. Her presence has a way of comforting the most troubled heart. She exudes an aura of ancient wisdom, a calmness that belies the storm raging within Demika. She’s Demika’s solace and refuge whenever the storms in her life arises.
“Yes, Meenu?” Granny Minama’s voice is soft, but there is a steely undercurrent to it, a reminder of the power she herself once wielded, as an initiated witch.
