The Witches novel Chapter 16

I made my way through the hallway over to the library when I saw Tamzyn walking my way with a little girl wearing a long black dress and a black headband. I stood before the library door and waited on her to make it up to me. She grinned when she reached me and pulled me in for a hug which I returned.

"Kelsey. This is my baby sister, Jade. She's not my biological sister but I sure do love her like she is,"

I grinned. That's cute. Everything about Tamzyn was so refreshing. I looked at Jade, why is she a black witch when Tamzyn isn't. Some black and white witches still don't mix because this is all too new for everyone and so no one trusts the other. And where do I fall? Black or white? Last night's dream had me fucked and I don't know with whom to share it. I low-key feel embarrassed to go to Mr Winston or Mrs Voss because I don't know what to make of myself.

"Nice meeting you, Jade," I grinned at the little girl who stuck her tongue out at me, it came as a surprise.

"Jade!"

"I'm on my inside. I wanna use the Jay-Moon to find a job, I live alone and want to find a way to make an income so that I can take care of myself,"

Tamzyn raised her eyebrows and leaned closer to me. "What's a Jay-Moon?"

I couldn't help but let out a small smile. "It's initials. Lemme show you,"

I led they followed.

"If it's initials," Jade replied, "then I'm Jay-Moon too,"

We walked in silence. The library is huge, eight storeys high and very wide. It has a variety of magic books, different types of magic including magic from the other dimensions including earth. I've never had an interest in another type of magic because it's useless studying it. Many witches can't even do it because we're built different or just different in general. How on earth can I do gnome magic? I'm not a gnome.

We walked to rows upon rows of large tables each having a built-in Jay-Moon, many students sat there and did their research. I sat down a grey block. It looks like a neatly carved block-shaped stone. Tamzyn and Jade sat down next to me and I proceeded to start the Jay-Moon. I pressed it down and a large white shinning moon popped up.

On the screen was the guide, Jay-Moon, she was inspired by the real Jaydan Moon whose idea the whole thing is but she couldn't create it so she told the other Mayhems to make it for her. They even named it after her and built it up from her essence. Jay-Moon greeted us like she is supposed to. Jade greeted back which caused Tamzyn and I to chuckle.

'How may I help you?'

"I'm looking for work. No experience. I'm Fifteen if that'll help,"

'I'm on it,'

She did her twirl which causes a whirlwind to blow on the soft screen. The gentle breeze blew on our faces which seemed to intrigue Tamzyn, I personally love winds. Especially strong ones. The whirlwind ended and Jay-Moon stood there with her hands behind her back wearing a soft pink maiden dress.

"Why don't you come work with me at the orphanage?"

I sunk into my seat and looked at her. Visible disgust on my face.
