Zuri wanted to know about her father's death. She knew Aunt Ebele would tell her the whole truth. Zuri was finally ready to hear the whole truth. Zuri and Aunt Ebele found themselves in a prolonged silence, punctuated only by the occasional cooing and laughter of Minkah. A spring storm had unexpectedly arisen, its ferocity evident in the unrelenting sway of the trees under the onslaught of wind and rain, visible through the window.
Breaking the silence, Zuri turned to Aunt Ebele, "May I pose a question?" she asked. Aunt Ebele, with her characteristic grace, responded, "Of course, my dear. Feel free to ask anything."
Zuri, struggling to articulate her thoughts, finally managed to ask, "What transpired with my father?" The fate of Ike had always been a convoluted topic within the family. Zuri had scant knowledge about her father's demise.

Zuri was determined to investigate every possible avenue to uncover which faction of her family had placed a target on her child’s back. Regardless of the outcome, she was resolute in her decision to raise Minkah, instilling in him a blend of motherly wisdom, common sense, and trust. She was acutely aware that the issue of trust would be a challenging one to address.

She also recognized that growing up in Mississippi would pose its unique set of difficulties for her son. Her burdens were already substantial, with the assassination of her father Ike, and prominent leaders like Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, and Medgar Evers weighing heavily on her mind. The safety of her son was an additional concern that she now had to bear.

In the midst of these challenges, she found solace in prayer, hoping that Aunt Ebele would provide the guidance she so desperately sought.

Upon the revelation that her son possessed the third eye, Zuri’s initial joy gave way to apprehension. Instead of savoring the moment, she found herself consumed by thoughts of the potential envy and animosity her son might encounter. Moreover, she feared that his unique gift could make him a target for violence at the hands of white supremacists. The question lingered: which side of the family had unwittingly bestowed this mysterious and perilous curse upon her child?
