Death Wish

Karen was on her death bed. The Djinn approached kindly. He said “Can I have a word. I would like to tell you that the fortune you acquired was due to me. I wished it upon you in your hour when you were very poor. Now that you are in your death you fortunately have grown up according to Satan. Can you give me three pieces of valuables items. Or you will go on my rent bookand i will go away".

Karan being the evil person she was saw some benefits she could receive. She was in a war with her child. The Djinn advised her, she would go on his rent book and there will be hell to pay. The truth bieng in the scenario she was already on the rent book by what her family did years before.When they become of a certain age all the family has to pay back what they took. Karen wanted her child obliterated and saw the Djinn as a way to do this. After many days of conversation, she signed his rent book for revenge. No amount of pleading by the Djinn did she back down.

Karen died. Karens husband and other daughter did same when they came to age of grown up.

The child didn’t know why she was met by so much misfortune. The Djinn had conferred with Satan how much punishment to give the child.

After 33 years he approached the child and said same. As she was of the same family and owed money. The child paid for herself and her children without any qualms. As Satan had ordered she had grown up and needs to pay.

It was three portraits she had designed.

Now Karen, husband and other daughters souls are in hell not knowing how to pay the Djinn back.

Moral of the story when Djinn approach, ask what he wants and how to pay and the consequences of your actions. Djinn perceive you the way you are and are under no obligation to do something for you because you become a sinner.If you at the point of signing say you seek revenge When knowing you already on rent book owing money.
