Chapter 5 The repayment

"What are you doing here?" Mokee asked with a frown as Nana pulled her to a shaman tent.

"What else, to check out your luck for this year, you have to prepare beforehand, don't you? Come on" She pulled her inside while Mokee only cussed beneath her breath. They entered the tent and met an old ragged woman sitting behind a small desk.

"Woman!" She calls as Nana and Mokee came inside scaring them both.

"Me....or her?" Nana asked gesturing to herself then to Mokee.

The shaman said nothing but only shut her eyes.

"I don't think this is a good idea, let's leave" Mokee tries pulling Nana out but Nana refused.

"Just sit and shut it" Nana make her sit opposite the shaman. Nana Sat beside her also.

"Hand" The shaman requested, her eyes still shut.

Mokee reluctantly gave her her right palm, the shaman took it rubbing on her palm. Then she started murmuring some incoherent words to herself.

"What do you see...?" Nana asked slowly and curiously.

"I see them" The shaman's rough voice came out.

"Them? Who?" Nana asked again.

"Men" The shaman replied. Nana's eyes went wide.

"Me...men???" Nana faces Mokee with a large grin.

"She sees men, not just a man girl but mennn!!" Nana squeals at Mokee who only rolled her eyes.

"Who are those men?" Mokee asked carefully.

"Your doom!" The shaman says.

"What??"Mokee frowns.

"You!! It'll come again! I can see it! It's coming again...it's because of you!! It's all because of you!!!"

"What the hell is she saying, Nana let's leave" Mokee remove her palm from the Shaman's grip and held Nana's hand getting her up.

"But...but wait...we should_"

"It's better to run away now, if you don't want destiny repeating itself. I can see it, You are a poison to them! Child, run away!" The shaman's voice stops them.

"Come on let's leave now" Mokee says dragging Nana out without giving a reply to the shaman.

"It's such a pity, that child is going to suffer again. Just like thousand years ago" The shaman mumbles to herself.

"Mokee! Mokee wait!! Wait!!"Nana called running after Mokee who keeps walking away in a fast pace.

"Mokee come on!" She eventually caught up with her stopping her.

"Are you pissed?" Nana asked.

"You think I'm happy to hear some shit early in the morning??" Mokee shot back.

"Come on, don't be like this. I was only looking out for you."

"Well then, thank you. You've succeeded in ruining my morning Miss Rowena Park!" Mokee gave her a bad look walking away.

"Ugh! That brat. She's damn temperamental...what the hell is that old woman talking about!" She sighs out.

~DREAM BIG AGENCY~

"Sorry I kept you waiting" Cody says taking a sit opposite Mokee who was sitting on a couch in his office.

"It's okay, you must be busy"

"Well you know. I have tons of Actors, Actresses, Models a lot of celebrities under my wings I'm looking after. I'm a really busy man..." Cody reply proudly.

"Hmm" Mokee gave him a small smile.

"I'm not trying to brag, don't misunderstand. I'm just stating the fact" He says again.

"You've really done a great job over the years, it must be hard" Mokee says.

"It was. But it's okay now. So, are you feeling any discomfort, do you have the medical result with you?" Cody asked.

"Umm Cody...the thing is...um..." She shutters, fiddling with her fingers.

"Do you want something cold to drink?" Cody asked with a smile.

"Uh? No...I'm...I'm okay" She replied slowly.

"But Mokee, you're amazing. I know you've been always pretty but even after seven years you're still as pretty, considering what happened you should look really rough and haggard but you...you look like an Angel. Innocent and cute" Cody compliments.

"Ahh...do I? Thank...you" She smiles slowly.

She was actually putting on a simple white dress, a light make up and her long shiny black hair fall freely on her shoulders.

Even though Nana had tried her hardest to coax her into dressing foxy and all to seduce him, Mokee decline saying she doesn't want to.

So, she dressed as herself. Simple.

"Do you have something to say, it seems like you do?" Cody asked

"Um...I..."

"Do you perhaps need my help, like a job?" Cody asked, Mokee looks at him in surprise.

"Don't be surprised I know that. I know the situation you're in right now and I know how badly you need help. Things doesn't seems to be going well and I can tell that from your face. Seeing how it's hard for you to say it, I know it must be that. You're in a lot of debt right?" Cody asked.

"How...how did you know that?" She raised a brow.

"Here. Look at this" He gave her his tablet which she collected. Her eyes widened on seeing the news there.

"That's you right?" Cody refers to the news of her vomiting on Cove.

"You came for an audition and ended up doing that. Of course I know it's an accident."

"This...this was..."

"Initially I was going to sue the person who did this to my actor but then discovering it's you, I withdrew. You're my old junior I should be considerate at least" Cody smiles.

"Cody about that I..."

"I won't sue you don't worry, and I'm going to give you a job also, a job with a hefty payment how about that?"

"I_"

"You don't need to be thankful, you can just repay me back another time. What do you think of being a manager to the one of the famous actors?"

"A...a manager?"

"Huh. Be a manager, for my actor, Cove Lee" He let out a big smile.
