After this, Miss kaur revealed something more. She was acting that way to make Sallos believe she wanted to hurt me. Sallos used to be a fallen angel so he gets connected to kids really easily and would never really try to hurt one. But as a demon, if he doesn't find something appealing he would not think twice.
"And so I was behaving rough with you that time, you see currently, sallos's untrue form, he made to make you scare so that you don't try to talk to him since beginning is still inside you. His consciousness is trapped in the mirror, when it broke apart back then I knew he had done something, transfer some of his consciousness inside you while taking away your memories of his fake illusionary black body."
"Wait so he's still inside me? Can he hear us?"
"Not anymore, remember I fed you burning medicine? That was to make Sallos get outside of you completely, I've trapped him inside", she took out a small mirror "this, now you only have some of his words in your mind and nothing else, but he can still use it to control you a bit."
"So…what should I do?"
"You see, your family made a red thread, it could repel anything that's coming to you, if it's hate, it'll turn into love and if it's love it'll turn into hate."
After that she took a pause and gave me the mirror
"Your family created it to even remove sallos"
"To remove sallos? But this red thread is for emotions right?
"It is, that's why if the demon starts hating you, and your soul, he would volunteer in getting out"
"Will it hurt me?"
"It would, that's why I was trying to make it hurt you in the Beginning so that he develops guilt and leaves you"
"Oh…"
"I'm sorry again ojas, I just couldn't find time to explain"
"It's okay miss kaur, i understand you"
She smiled at me, i could feel the original miss kaur again, the warm smile, with a little guilt his inside
"So ojas, I'll protect the mirror, would you like to go to a place where your family hid the thread?"
"It's not in my house?"
"No. I think i told you that your ancestors died before they could tell everyone about the curse"
"Who killed them?"
"Sallos"
"But…"
"I know what you're thinking, you see… sallos is a fallen angel who deals with relationships, men liking women and vise versa, your family denied his rules."
"Wait were they ga-"
"Shuush! Let me explain! Keep your genz terms with you"
"Ah alright i'm sorry miss kaur"
"As I told you, sallos was once an angel in those old books my family used to read, once my ancestor awoke him using some spells, to guard my family and it's heritage. Years later his daughter fell in love with your family's son. Everyone was happy thinking it was all normal but sallos started acting weird. He used to attack your family every time they came to our house. The elder who awoke sallos was not able to understand this, so he used some spells to understand sallos."
"So what did Sallos say?"
"That family's child is not a man, it's a woman. A woman wanting your daughter"
"Oh then that's why they started fighting?"
"No, the elder was a good man, he was okay with the marriage as long as his daughter was okay with it and she surely was. But sallos wasn't, the elder tried explaining sallos but he never understood. So he locked sallos inside a vessel and got his daughter married with your family's daughter. But sallos got out of the vessel, when sallos found the women, he tried killing your family's daughter but my family's daughter came in between and died. Sallos was still going mad, your family's daughter was doing her best to defeat sallos but she couldn't, so she used her wife's bracelet which was made up of mirror and trapped sallos inside. When she took the body back to our home…"
"Then…?"
"The elder thought that your family's daughter used his daughter to protect herself as the bracelet was a gift from elder to his daughter, so he cursed her that sallos will reside inside you and kill you internally, and every 7th generation after your family will be cursed by sallos, and the seventh child is you…in your ancestor's body sallos resided inside her only for a short time and he knew that woman was against his morals but now for him you are the perfect person, you are following his morals, that's why since birth he's been with you, maybe he has hurt you a few times but that was just to see if you're like that woman he hated. But you know he'll only be good to you, he'll cause trouble to your family for years until the next 7th generation comes and if that child isn't following sallos's morals, he'll kill that child instantly."
I was shaking…so this was sallos's true nature? Does he still want to kill me? I wanted to ask miss kaur more questions but I got so many answers already
"That's why ojas, I want to finish this curse that was made by my elder, i learnt everything saying I'll punish the 7th generation's first child but inside I knew, it was not your family's fault"
Miss Kaur was really nice, I was always right about her. Now I was ready, ready to bring the thread and help her finish this curse for real. To break this generational curse of our families for good, to help our elders rest in peace. For my ancestor who fought for her love. Even though I might not be a LGBT supporter.
I now know whom to believe. And whom to not.
