RUFUS REVEALED THE TRUTH

Rufus went to the van, but then the rain started drizzling. returning to the mill Rufus ponders with Martha's word, that was stuck in his head.

'She is her child, what does she mean by that, I know she calls me her son, does it mean because Courtney is my wife, she also calls her her child. That could be the only explanation.'

As he drives Rufus thought, "This is odd, a while ago the sun was blazing hot, now suddenly the sky is black. and it is early in the day.

Rufus recalled the first day after he brought Courtney to the Island, the same thing occurred.

This day had started out so perfectly, then it changes from the disappointment of hearing her spit out her rage, to me on the beach, now this?

Now she is being attacked once again by this evil force. Wondering if that evil force has really been controlling the weather as Courtney said?"

Ma and Pappie were looking out over the waters, "I have never seen the water like this before, Pappie, I am worried" saying a word of prayer, "Oh Lord, please helps me to know exactly what is going on?"

"I don't know Mother but from what Rawlings has been telling me, it seems the weather has been changing regularly."

"Pappie, from what I am seeing my son is right, look at how the waves are vicious, and the skies are darkening slowly."

"I don't know Mother, but let us go to the big house I don't like this and Rawlins said the last storm the water had reach the house."

"But Pappie the water had never cross the bank."

"I know but let us be on the safe side, Rufus said the child get sick this morning mother. Something is not adding up.

I don't have the faintest idea what to think right now, and look the rain had started and the wind is blowing strangely, and is worsening by the minute. I don't like it, let us hurry the water is rising at a faster passé."

Covering our head to get to the van when this loud bang occurred, holding Mother, seeing the branch burst through the van glass on mother's side. "Dear God, if you had only sat in that van a minute ago, she would be dead."

Returning inside, "Is Carlos's wife pregnant with an heir Mother? This Island only experience this sort of weather when a Dawson woman is carrying an heir."

"Then Pappie we are safer here, that evil will only attack the house where the mother is in."

Seeing Rufus coming, "Come quickly the sea is angry."

"How do you know that Son?"

"Martha, told me that earlier today."

"Have you seen Martha, Son?"

"Yes, this morning."

"Thank God the child is away." Mother responds.

Hearing the evil force cry, "Rufus, how did you know to move Courtney?"

Feeling grandmother touch my hand, "Son what is going on?"

"I am sorry Grandmother, all this is happening because Courtney is pregnant."

"What are you saying, Son? Is she pregnant with your child?"

"Yes, when I met her in the mainland we got married."

"Then we must be with her."

"She is safe with Martha, Martha has been keeping her eyes on her."

"But Son, the child must have gone through a lot?"

"She has, but she know how to fight it now, Martha has join forces with her. Pappie, you know that feller Peller who has been roaming the plantation and we can't seem to stop him."

"Peller!"

"Yes, do you know Courtney said he is that evil spirit."

"No Son, he is my friend."

"No Pappie, he tried to kill Courtney in August when the storm destroys this half of the plantation, Courtney recognizes him and Martha agrees with her.

Pappie from a child I know Peller, and he hasn't aged a bit and this morning he alone was in the water when it almost drowns Courtney.

It was only her prayer that saves us. I didn't believe her at first, but she prayed and apply the blood of Jesus on him, Pappie he disappeared, then the water subsided."

Relating a few other incidents that occurred, when suddenly a branch came flying through the air, "Stop Son." Pappie said, when Grandmother screams out, I mash the brakes only to see the branch pass over the hood flying at such speed. Dear God if that branch had hit the van we would have all gotten hurt

"Grandmother, Martha said he will become angry."

"I see Martha is right as always, so we have to do more praying."

Reaching the house, "I need to go to her."

"No Son, from what I observe he is confused and looking for her, wherever she is, he cannot sense her presence and if you go, you will be leading him straight to her, when Mother here was having your Dad, we had to do a lot of praying."

"Pappie, I have been praying."

"Then don't stop Son."

Inside the house, Rawlings was sitting on the sofa relaxing. "Dad you have come."

'Yes Son, the water is rising rapidly, so I didn't want to stay at the cottage with your mother, hearing what had occurred when the last storm came.

"Come, Mom, what will you like to eat?" Rawlins asks politely.

"Now is not the time to eat Son, we must pray."

"Mom, it is just a freak storm."

"No son, we only experience this sort of weather when a Dawson heir is on the way."

"But Mom that is not possible."

"Listen to me son, this weather is not natural." Mom said.

"Then we must keep Risha safe." Rawlins reply.

"Risha Dad, why?" Carlos ask.

"Because she is pregnant with a Dawson heir Carlos," Cheryl responds.

"But Mom that is not possible, Risha and I haven't slept together," turning to Rufus, "It is you, little brother?"

"Did you lie to us, Rufus?" Cheryl ask.

"Now is not the time to say who is lying Cheryl." Mother replies.

"It is Courtney Mom, when she was angry she said she was a Dawson. How could I be so stupid, that day by the grove she said her husband work on a plantation. It is Rufus, have you gotten married little brother?"

Turning to his parents, "Mom, Dad I am sorry, I am a disappointment to you, but Carlos cannot upkeep the plantation."
