Chapter 5- It's in your hands
Marcus stood up and got out the ring. He knew that he was partly to blame
for all this, but it wasn't his fault that he had never loved anyone nor
had anyone genuinely loved him before not even in his childhood.
"Childhood" Marcus sighed as he turned the lights off and walked out of the
Yard and towards his bike.
Rikishi helped Manny into his house. "Fatu, is that you?" A voice came from the living room. "Yes uncle Sabu." "I sense that you are not alone, a girl with a troubled mind is by your side." Sabu replied as Manny looked at Rikishi. "I warned you." Was all he could say. "Bring her in here, where it's nice and warm. She's hurt as well as cold." Sabu continued as Manny and Rikishi did as they were told "Ahhh, Manny. How are you, my dear?" Sabu asked as he stood up. Manny smiled and was just about to speak, when Sabu held his hand up. "I know my child. Come sit by the fire. I tell you what is troubling your mind and soul." Sabu said as he led Manny to the fireplace. Rikishi sat on a chair. Sabu held Manny's hand in his. "Awww child, I see that two men seek your heart. One assumed he had your heart and the other kept his feelings hid away in his heart." 'Kevin and Marcus' Rikishi thought as Manny felt tears pricking her eyes. "You don't want to hurt them both, but one will have a broken heart." 'Marcus' Manny thought as she knew how strong Kevin was. "But wait." Sabu said as he looked closely at Manny's hand. "I see that during this troubled time; happiness will show its beautiful face in the form of a gift. I can't see what the gift is. I think that only God knows what the special gift will be. That's all I know." Sabu finished as he stood up and headed for the stairs. "Rikishi, give Manny some food and show her to one of the guest rooms. She will stay here for the night. I go to bed. See you in morning Manny." "Good Night, uncle Sabu" Rikishi replied. Manny, who was still sat by the fire, looked at her hand. "Oh my God, I...it's just, I mean..." Manny said as Rikishi kneeled next to her. "What he's trying to say is that it's in your hands. He's told you what to expect, it's up to you as to how you go about doing it." Rikishi said as Manny looked up at him and tilted her head. "Now are you hungry? 'Cause I am." Rikishi finally asked. Manny nodded her head and they headed for the kitchen. 'It's in your hands, Manny.' A voice in her head said. She smiled although she didn't know how she was going to get this special gift or what it was or who this gift is going to be from.
