Ichabod was confused.. How could this? How could Harmony be Dennis all of a sudden? Still, he helped her up into her gown. She kept looking at him in wonder and surprise until she was fully clothed…

“My love you don’t believe me do you?” she asked him.

If he didn’t believe anything, Harmony had never called him that before except Dennis.

“I don’t understand, ”he replied.

“I don’t understand either but…”

“She was trapped between the past and the present by me…” said a voice behind them and they turned around. Ichab found the witch, Tonia except, for now, she was fast changing into the face of the witch that had cursed him so many years ago.

“Oh my God!” Harmony shrieked, running towards Ichab….

Now a fully grown old woman in a flowing black gown and a magical wand,  Tonia laughed.

“When I put the curse on you for breaking my daughter’s life I put a hex on her to stop her from dying or living or turning into a vamp like you . It was too kind for both of you to just suffer just a little agony and then forget it. I had to bring you through time to live It again….”

“Yes, but I won didn’t I?” Ichabod said.

“You cheated…” the witch said angrily, spitting

. “I guess you can say the bond between a father and daughter is really powerful….”

“But Tracy is not my daughter….” Ichab stated.

“Oh, Denis, you didn’t tell him you were pregnant before the wedding day?”

Ichab frowned, “ I don’t understand,” he said to Harmony/Dennis who looked guilty all of a sudden. “I found out some days before the wedding, I wanted to tell you after…”

“So the hex I put on her stopped the child from growing as well, it stopped everything and I personally brought the coffin I put you in right to this country because you were going to find each other here…I removed part of the hex from her when it was time for her to build her career. I gave her a fake parental background. She doesn’t even know what is real… “ she laughed more. “She had clues though, but those clues, she made them into movies….and now she is a celebrity…”

Ichab looked at Harmony again and he knew that he had been right. All the time he had called her Dennis, she was actually Dennis and Tracy was..Tracy was…

“Still, my daughter died a painful death, the curse is over, the hex has been removed, I cannot allow both of you to live still…”

The couple gasped.

“But I won, please, don’t do this…” Ichab pleaded but the woman was busy chanting some words but all of a sudden she cried out in pain and collapsed to the ground. Standing behind her was Rashidat, dropping the two wires in her hands. She had used part of the wire that was left hanging nakedly (which Odin had earlier used)to strike her from the back. Tonia lay lifelessly on the ground.

“Are you two okay?” she asked.

“Yes Rashidat, thank you,” Ichabod replied quickly.

“Thank you so much,” Harmony/Dennis quickly said.

“So Odin is gone right?” Rashidat asked a bit sadly.

“Yes he is but part of him is still here somewhere, “ Ichab replied with a smile before he and Rashidat hugged.

“Now, let’s go see Adams. He would be really shocked,” Ichab suggested.

“What about Tracy?” Harmony asked.

Quickly, Ichab looked at where Michael had been lying down but discovered he was no longer there.
“Mummy!” shouted Tracy behind them and they turned around only to see Michael, holding Tracy and pointing a gun to her head.

Ichab knew he was suffering a great deal with the way he held the gun for he had almost broken all of his fingers earlier. He was also dripping blood as he had been badly injured.

“I do not know what kind of madness this is but I am telling the whole world…” Michael threatened, “If you try to stop me, I will put a bullet in her head…”

Ichab looked up and realized that the current from the disconnected wires was still passing through and some wires may still drop with the way everything was hanging way above them…the next one that would drop would be in between them and that would happen within few seconds.

“Go back ladies…” he whispered to the two ladies and they moved back. So it was now between him, Tracy and Michael.

“Tracy, listen to me, everything will be fine. You remember the last part of the dance we did?”

The girl nodded.

“Good, I want us to play that part again. Trust me okay? I will count to just 5, do it on number 4…okay?”

Tracy nodded.

“What nonsense are you saying?” Michael demanded but Ichab was already counting…by the time he got to 4, Tracy spun right from under him, twisting his hand so fast that Michael cried out in pain and then ran toward Ichab who lifted her up and threw her into the air, just that this time, while Odin had waited to catch her, he quickly shouted to the ladies…” catch her!” and instead, he picked up a wood on the floor to hit the dropping wire, causing it to fall on Michael who immediately touched the naked mouth out of fright, electrocuting himself…..

Ichabod rushed out of the place as there were too many sparks….

“Do you have Tracy?” he shouted at the women,

“Yes, yes, we do..” Rashidat replied.

He turned towards michael, "this is what happens when you fail to master a simple dance..."

“We need to get out of here…” Harmony cried..

Quickly they began to run out of the place before the whole house would go up in flames…

**

Many weeks later….

“So this is a goodbye right?” Rashidat asked Ichab as they all waited at the airport a few weeks later.

Ichab nodded with a smile, “yes it is. We are officially a family, we need to start all over but not here,” he replied.

“But what about her career?” Rashidat asked.

“She doesn’t need it anymore, she has a new career now and that is to take care of her family. Once we land, we will find something else.”

“Okay, glad to hear that.”

“We will, thank you so much for everything.” Ichab said with a smile before they both hugged.”

Finally, she turned to Adams who also embraced her.

“Thank you so much Rashidat, for everything. Take care of my friend.”

“I will,” Rashidat replied before waving at Tracy and her mother who was standing close by, talking to Vivian who was practically losing her mind.

“Harmony, I cannot do this. How could you give me access to everything? This is your story, you should it, direct it and everything…”

“No. I am done Vi. Besides, I know you are capable of that,” Harmony replied.

“No, I am not okay.

Read " Bleeding Petals " by the same author ( Tobi Loba )

. This is all so unreal. So I don’t even know if to call you Dennis or Harmony…”

Harmony laughed, “Call me Harmony, that is who I am to you. Dennis only belongs to one person.”

Vivian sighed. “So you are leaving all these behinds?”

Harmony nodded. “It was only an unreal part of my life. My family is my life now…”

“I still cannot believe this…” Vivian kept on.

“That is why it’s a fiction, isn’t it? Write it out, act it out, people will think its just another movie…oh here comes my husband.”

Ichab turned to them…” are you two done?”

Vivian shook her head. “I am yet to hug and kiss my goddaughter…” she said and took Tracy in her arms, kissing her. Then she put her down and hugged both her friend and her husband.

“I hope I will see you again?” she asked Harmony.

“Yes, invite me to the premiere of the movie when it comes out…” Harmony replied as they went on their way…

“So, what should I title it?” she shouted aloud…

Harmony and her husband exchanged glances and she replied….”You will figure it out!”

“Okay, I hear you,” Vivian shouted looking at them as they went further inside and she could see them no more…

She looked at the book in her hand..it was the screenplay which Harmony had drafted out for her…

“I think I know the best title for that…” said a woman close to her whom she recognized as the woman that had hugged Ichabod earlier.

“Oh really?”

“Yes…why don’t you title it-Ichabod?” she suggested.

Vivian thought for a while and smiled. “That will be so good. I am Vivian…”

“I am Rashidat, I think we can work it out into a grand movie together…”
“Awesome…I believe we can do that. So, I need a friend so badly, do you think we can be best friends please? My bestfriend just left.”

Rashidat laughed, “of course,” she said before the two went together, walking out of the airport the same time when a particular flight took off…..
