My sister and I were both trained witch doctors. We got our training from our mother. Our powers weren’t real, but our mother taught us that if people believed our powers were real, people would heal themselves. Yes, we made a profit but we were also helping people. I was walking down the street to the witchcraft supply store when I tripped and broke my leg. “Help, can someone call me an ambulance,” I shouted. “I know you, I’ll call your sister,” someone said. My sister came, but her spells couldn’t heal my leg because I knew they were fake.
