Black Jade (2016)
“I had packed for everybody and our suitcases were in the living room. All the children sat on the couch, waiting for transport.
‘Oh, you stupid woman, why did you pack up the other kids?’ the King said. ‘I never said they were coming. They’ll come later when I bring their mothers down to take them.’ She glared at the children. ‘Take their bags into their rooms and unpack. They’re coming later.’ Didn’t the King say the other kids were coming? I asked BJ.
Processing . . . yes. But she didn’t say ...when. She’s trying to make you distrust your memory. She’s brainwashing you, Aunty Emma, be careful.
The small demons picked up the other kids’ bags. One of them grabbed my striped canvas bag and I stopped it.
‘That’s mine.’ ‘Nothing’s yours,’ the demon said, and backhanded me away, but left the bag.
‘All right, Frankie, are you ready?’ the King said, her hands clasped in front of her with forced delight.
‘I want my friends,’ Frankie said, unsure. ‘I don’t want to leave them here if it’s dangerous.’ ‘They’ll be fine,’ the King said.MoreLess
