- 0:04I got to see a witch one night when I was coming back from work.
- 0:08At that time he lived in the municipality of Tlajomulco, when it was
- 0:13not yet so populated. I moved in without thinking too much about it because
- 0:17I could buy my house. The bad thing about the situation was that he
- 0:20had only been able to buy a house that was very far away, because
- 0:26we had to wait a few years until it started to populate. Still,
- 0:29there were many places without people on the side of the road. There we
- 0:34saw only unused land and some houses in black work. In those days there
- 0:40were no normal food stalls on the street, neither were many locals and very
- 0:45few areas were cared for, so it was a dry area with many empty
- 0:50houses. The good thing despite the distance was that the transport of personnel from
- 0:55the factory where I worked left me on the avenue right at the entrance of
- 0:59the Erra Colonia where I lived. I had to walk a few blocks about
- 1:04ten to fifteen minutes walking until I got home. But that walk was a
- 1:10dangerous thing, even though it had lit up public, because there were too
- 1:15many lonely places full of zacate. Then raised several neighbors who arrived at the
- 1:21same time. We agreed to come back together and prevent something from happening back
- 1:25to our homes, especially the women, we were the most interested in having
- 1:30company so we could walk safely through the empty lots. One night, when
- 1:38the factory transport had left me at the usual drop point. I knew that
- 1:42there was no one to accompany us to cross the lots alone, since I
- 1:49had doubled shift, so the night had already fallen and my companions on the
- 1:53way were already in their homes. It was a bit late, about ten
- 1:57o' clock at night and I remember saying I' d have to see
- 2:00the lights of the houses in the distance, but they weren' t there.
- 2:04I just saw a few little flashlights going the same way as I did,
- 2:08and I thought they' d be the cell phones that light the way.
- 2:13I didn' t see anything wrong with following those lights. I figured
- 2:15there were more people walking back to their homes just like me, so I
- 2:21started walking around hoping to join someone who didn' t look suspicious within a
- 2:27few minutes I couldn' t see well where I was stepping. My eyesight
- 2:30was pretty bad and that darkness didn' t help me focus well I pulled
- 2:37out my cell phone to light my feet, because I didn' t want
- 2:42to fall, but its light wasn' t enough to clear the way,
- 2:45so I slowed down. The path was darker than normal and I instinctively looked
- 2:50up at the sky I realized it was a new moon. That' s
- 2:53why it was harder to see where I was going. Although at that time
- 2:57I felt the darkness deeper than other times, then I didn' t imagine
- 3:00it was because of lack of light. In the houses, my cell phone
- 3:05rang and I stopped in the middle of nowhere to answer as I looked from
- 3:08one side to the other to see if someone came or came out from among
- 3:14the grown herbs from somewhere as they were alone. Many places only had land,
- 3:20but others had tall herbs. That' s why it was dangerous to
- 3:23walk through that place. The one who called me was my son. I
- 3:28wondered if he had come to the avenue to go for me, for there
- 3:31was no light in a section where we lived for a few hours, and
- 3:36I thought it would be more dangerous because I already listened to those who were
- 3:40on motorcycles from side to side waiting for their chance to take money from people
- 3:45in the dark. It was well known to everyone that some of the bikers
- 3:50who were riding two by two and without helmets were usually going to assault people
- 3:54at night or when they had the chance. So the fact that there was
- 4:00no light everywhere made me more likely to get mugged while we were talking there
- 4:03was no one who came walking from the same place as me, Although I
- 4:09lasted about five minutes on the call, I didn' t see anyone else
- 4:14going the same way in the distance. They were already missing some lights that
- 4:19I had seen from the beginning and which I followed to stay alone on the
- 4:24road. My son had told me to go back to the avenue and wait
- 4:29for him in the twenty- four- hour store on the corner, but
- 4:33he gave me a slack return. The store was too far away, so
- 4:39I told him he' d better keep walking so he could meet us somewhere
- 4:44along the way, both of us. I walked as fast as I could
- 4:47in spite of the darkness, but realizing that I was alone, I took
- 4:51my purse from the backpack to hang it on my back with my underwear.
- 4:56I just kept some tickets and some change in the bag of pants to pretend
- 5:00they took everything in case of assault. While doing these maneuvers, he looked
- 5:06from one side to the other trying to be alert. I kept walking in
- 5:11a hurry for a few minutes when I was scared to see in front of
- 5:15me stuck on the left side of the road, a lady in broken black
- 5:21clothes who was walking slowly in the shadows without lighting up with anything. I
- 5:25ran a little to snatch her away from the fear that caused me and saw
- 5:30for a second her gaze covered in a gray tone, as if she were
- 5:32blind. Then I stood up dry to see her again. She looked down
- 5:38on the floor, hiding from the light coming out of my cell phone without
- 5:43saying anything. I felt that it was best to leave without talking to him
- 5:47I returned to my path scared to death. As the intense cold began to
- 5:49feel in the environment. My sweater wasn' t enough to cover for me.
- 5:56I hugged myself and started running. I had no choice if they wanted
- 6:00to meet me soon with my son Jorge. Like I' ve never had
- 6:04a good physical condition. I stopped a few meters later to drink. I
- 6:09saw air on the sides and the mountains of land were just opposite. That
- 6:13was a sign that he was close to reaching the first rows of houses.
- 6:18I walked fast, even though my legs hurt, I lit the way with
- 6:23my cell phone, trying to be attentive in case I saw my son nearby.
- 6:28When I reached the earth mound, I looked back to see if the
- 6:31woman was coming after me, but nothing was visible. What became really strange
- 6:34to me was that I saw some small lights going towards the road. Although
- 6:41I hadn' t run into anyone who came in the opposite direction to mine.
- 6:46I waited a little while as I was getting ready to start walking as
- 6:50fast as I could, despite the time I was standing at that place,
- 6:56the woman I had seen back on the road never arrived. The dogs around
- 7:00were barking hard. The ice air kept blowing, making me tremble. I
- 7:06started walking again as I put my cell phone in my ear, I was
- 7:11going to tell my son that I had already come to where the earth was
- 7:15gathered for construction, but the call did not come in. He sent me
- 7:18the phone straight to the mailbox. When I walked through the first houses,
- 7:24I felt that I was already safer. I wanted to keep lighting the way
- 7:28with my cell phone, but a voice from a woman who seemed to speak
- 7:31nearby scared me. I turned off the screen of the phone waiting for the
- 7:36woman to pass and leave, but when I paid attention I realized that the
- 7:41voice is not heard so close. It was a woman' s voice that
- 7:45was heard bouncing from the echo of some abandoned house, and I thought it
- 7:48was my imagination, because no one in their right mind could be stuck in
- 7:54those empty houses in the middle of the blackout during a dark night of new
- 7:57moon. When I heard the word take it away, I got a tingling
- 8:03sensation in my stomach. The woman was a little hidden in the dark,
- 8:07where no one came in, because the houses were unfinished. I thought I
- 8:13was probably doing something wrong, since I didn' t see my son,
- 8:18nor did I get his call. It was better to continue until we found
- 8:20him. Besides, there was only one way to get to the first apple
- 8:24separation, so I had to find it. Anyway, I slowed down without
- 8:31turning on the cell phone screen. I was almost groping because I couldn'
- 8:35t see exactly if there was a hole or something dangerous down the street I
- 8:41was walking in. The woman' s voice grew louder and louder as I
- 8:45prayed inside so she couldn' t see me pass. I began to think
- 8:50that it would be best to run to everything my legs could give to avoid
- 8:54seeing something illegal they might be doing. Imagine the worst, I was surprised
- 9:01to see that she was just a woman for god' s sake there was
- 9:05no one else, nor was there any car or motorcycle. She was just
- 9:09standing in front of a kind of bonfire that lit up a little darkness inside
- 9:13that house in black work. I walked slowly relieved that I did not meet
- 9:20dangerous people, but the feeling of tranquility did not last long when I saw
- 9:24that she began to move strangely as she went down and leaned forward. I
- 9:30stood still and couldn' t stop looking at what I was doing. It
- 9:33was unclear what was in front of her, but the little bonfire was able
- 9:37to illuminate her. When she approached and returned, the woman murmured ununderstanding words
- 9:45bouncing off the walls of that place, making her hear it, but not
- 9:50understand it. Little by little I saw the fire dancing in a strange way,
- 9:56as if the air was pulling it, but it was not making wind,
- 10:01Only the atmosphere was getting colder and colder. I looked around and there
- 10:05was no one else. Dogs kept barking in the distance. Neither was the
- 10:09public lighting on, so the light was still not coming. That woman began
- 10:16to say words in a language I did not recognize, but alternated it with
- 10:20Spanish saying clearly take it back and forth she repeated that over and over again.
- 10:26At first I was afraid of what I was doing. Then I was
- 10:31curious. I figured that poor woman might be crazy or maybe she was trying
- 10:37to do some weird ritual. Believing that those things worked, I thought it
- 10:41would be best if, coming to the light, I called the police to
- 10:46control that woman. She didn' t look dangerous, but doing those things
- 10:52she couldn' t trust me. That' s why I tried to follow
- 10:56my path to ignore at once what I was doing. I was barely back
- 11:01on track when I saw clearly that he took a bundle of branches with rags
- 11:07tied between his hands. He began to lift him up by stretching his arms
- 11:11as he looked up moving what he had in his hands in circles. He
- 11:16threw the branches into the light when he stopped turning them around and spit on
- 11:20him. I don' t know where he got a couple of birds.
- 11:22I just saw her bend down later I was already taking them by the legs
- 11:28with both hands while muttering again, things I couldn' t understand at the
- 11:33time. I sneezed through the cold and immediately she looked where I was standing.
- 11:39She saw me in the dark. I was sure he' d seen
- 11:43me because his eyes stuck in mine. I barely realized I was in danger.
- 11:50I started walking fast looking forward so she wouldn' t feel offended because
- 11:54I had seen her. At that moment. A roar similar to that of
- 11:58a cat was heard all over the place. The dogs in the distance began
- 12:03to shun and my heart was going to get out of my chest of fear.
- 12:09I just saw something I shouldn' t have seen. I felt that
- 12:13this woman was coming after me, I could feel her close to starting walking
- 12:18fast to get away, I started to run when I heard things crackling behind
- 12:24me the movement of my hands bounced off the light of my cell phone,
- 12:31making it impossible for me to see where I was stepping, so I went
- 12:33down on my knees against the floor. Despite the pain, I tried to
- 12:37get up to reach the phone that had flew out of my hands and was
- 12:41away from me with the light from the screen up. When I put the
- 12:46first firm foot on the ground, I felt my leg creaked, but the
- 12:50terror of knowing that the woman was coming after me made me ignore the pain
- 12:56by renching I walked to where my cell phone was at that time had started
- 13:01to ring and I could see that it was a call from my son.
- 13:05When I bent over to answer the call one hand pulled me from behind making
- 13:09it fall completely backwards. Because of the lack of light. I couldn'
- 13:13t quite know who he was, but that woman' s voice sounded like
- 13:18an echo, even though we weren' t inside somewhere closed. I felt
- 13:22his breath with a disgusting smell near my face. I also think he rubbed
- 13:28his hair on my arms as he told me that I was going to regret
- 13:33seeing what I had seen. I felt his hands holding my shoulders as I
- 13:39dropped a huge weight on them, making me scream out of the pain,
- 13:43I told him I had seen nothing. Then I no longer felt his hands
- 13:46or his hair on the skin. Nor did I listen to her or smell
- 13:50her It was as if she suddenly ran out or disappeared with the pain of
- 13:56her legs and back from the falls. No or no or I could get
- 14:01up, so I lay on the floor crying. Cell phone rang again.
- 14:05The screen lit up, so I came to see in the dark as a
- 14:09silhouette, approaching to take the phone from the floor. Fortunately, it was
- 14:16my son who had arrived. I was worried, so I asked her if
- 14:20she' d seen a woman while she came looking for me. He ran
- 14:24over to where I was, started checking me out. I wondered over and
- 14:28over again what had happened to me or what had been done to me.
- 14:33I calmed him down and told him that a strange woman had chased me down
- 14:37the street, but it seemed to be one of those women who were crazy
- 14:41and lived on the street, so maybe she had been scared with me when
- 14:46I saw myself in the dark. My son didn' t believe me,
- 14:50but I couldn' t tell him the truth either. I couldn' t
- 14:52expose him to go after her to get revenge for what had happened to me.
- 14:56When Jorge made sure that he only had his knee wounds from falling,
- 15:01he helped me get up to walk to the clinic, because he had blood
- 15:05on his knees and soaked my pants. I insisted on asking him if he
- 15:11had not seen a woman in rags pass near where he was when he came
- 15:16to look for me, but he repeated to me again and again that he
- 15:20had not met anyone on the way when he was looking for me. I
- 15:24have to admit that, despite the pain in my knees, I felt total
- 15:28relief knowing that he had not seen her. That made sure I couldn'
- 15:33t hurt her in case she looked for me. Then the crazy one was
- 15:37walking slowly and just when we got to the block, where we were going
- 15:41to turn to get to where we lived. The light returned and lit the
- 15:46whole street along with the interior of the houses, but the dogs did not
- 15:50stop their barking and howling. That night the madness had broken loose in all
- 15:56the animals of the place. All night we listened to them data and some
- 16:02others I didn' t recognize kept making noise. The next day I didn
- 16:07' t go to work, I had to go to the hospital because of
- 16:10my inability. His legs were so swollen that he could barely walk or talk
- 16:15about working all day. I stayed at home for three days to rest,
- 16:21but those three would result in a nightmare, because I felt so bad because
- 16:26of the fever that was beating me that I barely remember what I did during
- 16:32the recovery at night, I dreamt that I saw that one. Ma'
- 16:33am, when I was awake, I got that smell of smell that came
- 16:37out of her. It was impossible to feel calm, but I tried to
- 16:42disguise it so that it would not affect my children Jorge and Luis. On
- 16:47the third day, my legs were better. They had managed to get me
- 16:52out of bed alone, but I had the feeling that my body was too
- 16:56heavy on all my shoulders to relax I laughed to bathe in hot water.
- 17:00When I left when I was drying, I saw that one of my shoulders
- 17:06had a huge ball. When I went to check up, the doctor told
- 17:11me that I had on my shoulder that there was an infection process due to
- 17:15some scratch or cut that I could make days earlier at work. I didn
- 17:19' t say anything, but I was sure it was the woman who attacked
- 17:23me. Maybe she was sick. Again I was given a few days of
- 17:30incapacity, but they had become a real torture. I was in pain.
- 17:33Besides, it was impossible to forget about that terrible smell, because I often
- 17:38smelled it again, even though it said nothing. My children were worried about
- 17:44how to help me. Jorge asked me again and again that he had spent
- 17:48the night of the blackout without being able to hide from him more what he
- 17:53felt. I told her everything, but I asked her to let things happen,
- 17:56because that woman was sick. She told me she was sure she was
- 18:03a witch, that there were many stories circulating among the neighbors. More than
- 18:07once they had seen strange things among the waste people who were outside the border.
- 18:11There were also stories of women going into rituals of abandoned houses. We
- 18:18began to ask among the neighbors and it was true what he was telling me.
- 18:22Jorge was well known that there were witches outside of where we lived.
- 18:27As Luis was smaller. I didn' t think it would be a good
- 18:32idea to tell him what had happened, so we didn' t get him
- 18:36into the matter, but he too had begun to ask among the neighbors about
- 18:38those women. My health was slowly getting better. Only the shoulder seemed not
- 18:45to heal, even though I had taken all the treatments that had been sent
- 18:48to me the month of the meeting. The pain was still increasing. It
- 18:53was unbearable sometimes, but I was resigning myself to being that way because I
- 18:59didn' t want to do anything to investigate that woman further. You always
- 19:04have to obey your instinct, and mine told me that leaving things the way
- 19:07they were was the best. If she was a witch, as everyone said,
- 19:14it was better not to make her angry at being looking for her.
- 19:18My ailment spread for a few years. I' ve been working and doing
- 19:22my normal life for over a year holding on to the pain, but I
- 19:26didn' t care about that. My children were the first, so seeing
- 19:29them well made me feel better always surprisingly one day. Just like that,
- 19:36the pain slowly gave way until it disappeared without realizing it for some time.
- 19:41Later, Luis told me that he knew who had taken away the pain in
- 19:45my shoulder, that his brother had gone with a man to find a way
- 19:48to end what they called the touch of the Witch. My son told me
- 19:55that Jorge had bought what was needed to help me and that he had been
- 19:59working for half a year in the United States to pay for it. Luis
- 20:04told me he was telling me to know the sacrifice his brother was making to
- 20:08keep me. Well, it hurt him a lot when I complained, because
- 20:12he had gone too far leaving us alone to date. It' s been
- 20:18six years since my son left. We can' t see each other except
- 20:22for calls. I' ve asked him every time I can what he bought
- 20:27so he can help me. He doesn' t say anything. It just
- 20:29changes the subject, and that makes me think he had to pay for something
- 20:33unnameable. My son Luis keeps me secret where he' s going to leave
- 20:37the money he sends his brother to pay for the work the sorcerer did him.
- 20:42Despite my attempts to help him pay, I have not been left because
- 20:45that job is only paid by the person who asked for it. Anonymous account
