MY LATE SISTER CAME BACK HOME ALIVE ,10 YEARS AFTER HER PASSING .
I believe everything I read here, I have seen the very worst and no one can ever convince me that witchcraft is not real. So we lived in a very small village that's government abandoned. See,we do not have tar roads, no tap water nothing just electricity now.
So we used to fetch water from a river far from home. And we would do our laundry there,we would go there on weekends mostly. We would go very early in the morning and come back late in the evening. We would wash our clothes,hang them to dry so that they are not heavy. If we washed and took them home immediately then they would definitely be heavy and home was very far.
So now while waiting for our clothes to dry up we would swim in the river too. On one very fateful day while we were swimming,the sky just out of the blue went from very sunny to grey. Well there were rumours that there was mermaid living there and the more we make noise and pollute the water there ,the angrier it got.
But no one had ever seen this mermaid. It was just a heavy rain and strong wind that would come once in a while in our village and people just assumed it's the angry mermaid. So from the grey sky came a few lightnings not too scary and a very strong wind. It didn't last that long,must have lasted two minutes or less.
When the wind passed we realised that my sister was missing. We screamed for her and looked for her with no luck. No one saw where she went. After looking for with no luck we decided to go home and tell the elders what had happened.
My father rushed to the headman and told him this,the headman immediately called for a community meeting and a search begun. It was dark but everyone went on a hunt for my sister at the river. The hunt went on for three days with zero luck.
A week later she was found by a header. He ran to the headman and within minutes the river was crowded with people and the police were called. My sister's body was found floating in the river. I still have an exact picture of her floating.
She had no shirt on,she was grey and her belly was huge and she looked wrinkled all over her body. I cried so much that day,my mom fainted and she was admitted immediately. At that time my sister was 17 years old and I was 24 years old.
The police arrived and obviously certified her dad,we had to identify her body. I mean all those procedures and it was a very quiet and heavy week at the village. People were even scared to go to the river. My sister's burial had to happened and everything was done accordingly.
I saw my sister in that coffin and it was her,no doubt. I can safely say without a doubt that it was her that we burried that day. It took us a while to live with that pain of losing a loved one. My dad suffered the most because the two were very much inseparable.
Years passed and we made peace with our loss. Her death also pushed the municipality to provide us with water tanks. But after a few months the tanks ran dry and it meant we had to go back to the river again.
When we had moved past the pain and accepted the situation for what it was,the worst thing happened. One evening while we were sitting in the fire but having supper. My sister showed up like she's never left. It was her ,I also don't know how but it was her all grown now.
My father had passed away too when she returned. So it was just my mom,my siblings and our kids. None of us had kids when she passed away so they didn't know her and the kids were shocked to see us screaming and running away.
They also ran with us and she ran away with us. We went to the headman house and the community was summoned urgently. They tied my sister and sprinkled her with some salt and some even used their anointing oil and she was unshaken.
She was very much alive and well which to this day we don't understand how. We reported the matter to the police station and they helped us with DNA tests and she definitely had our DNA so it was indeed her. But the question still stands "who did we bury"?
As much as we loved and missed her, we just couldn't take her back home to live with us. Her stories are even scary. She said she lived under water all those years she was taken by an mermaid who wanted to k!ll her but ended up being fond of her so she kept her there with them.
She says under that river there's a very beautiful village with beautiful people. Anyway because we couldn't take her back as we are still very much scared of her. She now lives with our village sangoma. We only go visit her but even the visits are always very uncomfortable.
We are all very scared of her and she's the village topic to this day. It really scares me how she's just back from the dead and she acts like it's normal. I am here because I'd like to find out if there's anyone who once experienced this and how did it go? Is my sister a safe person to live with? My mother seeks to want her home eish I feel like I'd rather just move out.
