What Karma Can Do

Lorren stared at him in surprise, “This isn’t a prison; not really,” she took another step closer, “You can open the car if you want. It’s ok, I know about your gift.”

Glancing at the flashy red vehicle that had brought him there, he considered his options. Deciding to remove his belongings, he released the latch after a moment of concentration and lifted the lid to reveal the empty compartment.

“I already got those for you, mate,” a deep male voice informed him.

“Kari,” Lorren smiled, a light flush coloring her cheeks. “This is Charlie,”

“Hullo, Charlie,” the young man spoke again, his accent hard to miss as he offered his hand.

“You’re from Australia, or England, or someplace like that,” Charlie grinned, despite his recent revelations.

“I am from Australia,” his new friend smiled widely. His dark ebony skin gave his teeth a vivid white sheen, and he placed his hand flat on his chest as he introduced himself. “I am Kari, which means smoke.” When he nodded his head, his thick braids of coarse black hair shifted in clumps. Holding his hand out to indicate the missing baggage, he wafted it towards the house, “I have transported your belongings to our room.”

“Our room,” Charlie shifted slightly, “You’re my roommate!”

“Yes, roommate,” Kari nodded his agreement. “Come; let us have dinner and rejoice in the gathering.”

Perplexed, Charlie followed the pair into the house, noting that the girl appeared quite smitten with the young man who bunked in his quarters. “How long have you guys been here?” he asked when they had made it inside.

Opening cabinets, Lorren bit her bottom lip for a moment, furtively glancing at Kari. Together, they produced hamburger meat, noodles, and vegetables for a salad once the sauce had begun to simmer and the water to boil. Showing Charlie where to find the plates and flatware, the girl informed him, “It’s just us tonight; the three of us, Karma and Phil. Everyone else is away on business.”

Counting out the plates and silverware, Charlie set one of the tables for the group to share the meal they had prepared. He felt angry at being tricked into coming there, but after having met some of the other residents, a sense of curiosity emerged. I did want to find the Forgotten Angels, after all, he rationalized; and here Karma has pulled me into their midst. Could he learn about them before he made his escape?

“You said this isn’t a prison,” he spoke to the girl softly when his chore had been completed. Glancing around anxiously, he could feel the tension radiating from the pair of them, “So why are you afraid to talk to me about it?”

Shaking her head, Lorren stirred the pot of long noodles, “It’s not that I’m afraid. I’ve been here since I was a little girl. Karma brought me here after I drowned.”

“You died,” Charlie gasped, leaning in closer. “What about you?” he shifted his gaze to Kari. The other man only blinked at him a few times, so he pushed, “Look, I got hit by a car, two summers ago.
