Ertifferrah Written By: Elay Understood CHAPTER 14 OATMEAL FOR BREAKFAST... Elay TV Content Creator

 



Ertifferrah woke up feeling exhilarated!  She didn’t know if it was the potion she drank the night before or the dream she had.  She never had much of a love life for real, but in this dream, she sensed some possibility. Deep inside, she longed for the dream to become a reality, but so far, just having a dream of coming in contact with such a handsome young man, gave her something to look forward to today. Hoping maybe the day would go by a little faster so that she could dream again.


While getting dressed, she couldn’t stop seeing Octavious in her head. Strangely, she even felt as though she really did have a boyfriend. “Hey, a girl can dream!” She eagerly thought though, never the one to believe in finding truth in dreams. She decided to let that aspect of her religion go, openly neglecting her grandmother’s advice to heed to whatever her dreams told her.





Later that evening, she thought of the story her grandmother shared with her about dreams and how they were private confessions, like a diary for of the soul, and whomever she chooses to share them with would gain the power to do whatever they wished to alter the dream for good or evil.  


When two people got married, they become each other’s confidant. If the wife shared with her husband a shortcoming about herself, he would then have the power to go in and fix it for her. -Likewise with the husband. The beliefs of Akasha are that once two are one, the couple becomes an astronomical force.  It is said that they become what is called a ‘Deity’. 

The thought of it all was romantic to Ertifferrah, but she wasn’t too sure if she believed it though.

Exiting the bedroom, she smelled sweet cinnamon coming from the kitchen. “Mother knows best!” Ertifferrah said to herself. When she was home, her mother would always make cinnamon oatmeal for her, but these days, she was always busy working. Her job was somewhere in the headquarters where Lady Governess worked. She was the Chief Event Planner for the land of Akasha, which meant being unusually busy, especially now, because the upcoming gala required a great deal of attention. The closer the event approached, the more it was discussed with excitement by everyone around. She was proud of her mother for earning such a noble position in the office. Obviously, it paid well. 


“Ertifferrah, honey, breakfast is on the table. Sorry, I can’t sit and eat with you, but I have to go and finish getting prepared for work.” Now in the bedroom, her mother shouted out: “I checked in last night to see if you were sleeping well. It appeared so. I didn’t hear one sound from you, and you didn’t arise for your nightly glass of water either. I’ll be sure to thank Lady Governess for the sleeping potion.”


Resting her head on her palm, Ertifferrah stirred the oatmeal, smiling, and then let out a long sigh, thinking of Octavious the entire time. Huh? Yes, the potion worked, and I did sleep well.”

  The final arrangements are being made by Lady Governesses to obtain supreme power over both worlds. “Here lies the dawn of a new day!”  She wailed before her followers in a wooded location, far from the center of attention.  “Tonight, we get one more shot, at reconnecting with The Old Kingdom! “My dear sweet Deities, my friends, we need this moment like a child needs its mother's love. As you all know, once we proceed with the séance, there is absolutely no turning back.” Taking a look around at each person individually, Lady Governess proceeded with the rules and regulations of the night’s proceedings.  “There is no point in backing out now because whoever does will meet a grim death just beyond the firelight of this circle. My guards readily await anyone bold enough to impede our act.” In the shrubs, Nyah and her followers hid, waiting. “So, that’s your mother, huh? She’s very pretty but quite cruel.” Nyah’s closest friend answered. “Yeah, I know, and I’d hate t...

  Several days have gone by. Nyah and her devout followers prepare for the day when both formal engagements commence on the same night: in the land of Akasha, the Annual Gala, celebrating the birth of their nation and on Earth, where the Annual Seniors Choice Ball will commence. * It’s the night before the parties. The moment of pure peace, pure bliss, and equality. As the sun sets, the plots thicken. For the battle of the throne, the fight between right and wrong goes down tonight. * Nyah and her followers are at the Tarsus High Seniors’ Choice Ball, preparing for battle. “Okay, here’s the plan,” Nyah said, getting Erica’s attention before she headed on stage with the rest of Nyah’s friends, the ones that Octavious had described to her the day before. “Before the lights go out, I need you to be on that stage and ready to take the lead.  Now, do you remember the words?” she asked seriously. “Uh, yes, I do.” “Good, because they have to be sung verbatim.  No screw-ups or it...

  It was now the morning after, and all was well between Octavious and Erica as they held each other closely, enjoying the breeze as it blew the drapes gently above their heads. “I’m glad you said yes,” the soothing voice of Octavious said as he stroked her face, pulling her hair from around her eyes. “I wouldn’t have settled for anything less…” Amazed at how gentle he was with her last night brought her to tears as she thought about the moment again, wishing she could relive it. “See, there you go,” he cooed.  “That’s what I like to see from you—that smile, the look of satisfaction.”  Poking around at her face and then rubbing his nose on hers, he reached behind her pillow and pulled out a remote control. “Watch this!  I got the whole play-by-play of what we did last night recorded on TV!  Wonder how much money I’d make off this tape if I sold it…?  Betcha didn’t know I had a camera in here did you ?!”  He teasingly waved the remote in her face as a l...

  Assuming that nothing else could go wrong, Octavious headed to his bedroom chambers, ran water for a long, hot, shower, and prepared himself as best as he could for what was to come in Erica’s book. Thinking that if anything else went wrong, at least he would be ready for it.  On the dark chestnut brown couch, the cool feel of the leather gave him comfort as it soothed his skin.  In only boxer shorts, he finally opened the book, first studying the front page, which had a photo of Erica, and underneath, the name ‘Ertifferrah’.  Instantly knowing that this was her true name, he smiled and turned the page.  Each page had his undivided attention and, in a way calmed him.  It felt as if she was in the room with him.  Several pages in, something really caught his attention: Sometimes, I wish I had someone to talk to… Here I am, seventeen years old and still writing in a stupid journal! No offense to you, okay. But then again that couldn’t be so bad because...
