The Reverse Psychic

By Kulvinder Kherteru

Can you imagine? Someone who could look back into your past life and bring out into the open the good parts and the bad parts of your story? But to share it with the rest of the world...who would want that? How dangerous and scary is this? This was neither a rumour nor a scam; it had been proven to be true. No one really knew for sure how far back she could actually go, historically. She went by the stage name Xubia but was known worldwide as ‘The Reverse Psychic.’
Politicians, Judges, Doctors, Policemen to name but a few, were all here for safety reasons. It was common knowledge that many arrests had been made at these events. It also wasn’t set in stone that your story would come to light, yet many came for the experience, others searching for truth and justice. The five friends had waited for this moment all their lives. They sold what they had to in order to save their money just to be here at this time. £10,000 for a ticket was nothing compared to what they got in return.
The friends just prayed that at some point maybe they might get lucky and their story will unfold for all to see. They finally found someone who could help them with their terrific trauma and perhaps put an end to all their suffering.

Acknowledgement

I would like to take this opportunity to thank my late father-in-law, Chaman Lal, (1943-2019) and my mother-in-law, Kamla Devi, for giving me the time to create and write freely. Without your love and guidance, I would never have come this far in our journey. I love you Papa Ji (Rest In Peace) and I love you Mummy Ji, always.

A massive thank you to my sons, Rajan and Karam, for their humorous wise cracks during my moment of blankness. This lifted me up, inspired and motivated me further to reach my goal. Without their input, I could not have completed this book.

Love you and thank you.

Chapter 1

Hope and Faith

The lights flashed around the screen. A woman in a black cloak stood with her arms out on both sides, dominating the whole board. The hood covered half of her face, and her long black hair cascaded over her right shoulder. The top of the hood covered her eyes, but her lower face was visible. Her face as white as a sheet and her lips blood red; her silver hooped nose ring shone brightly. This woman had caused more than a stir; her ability to look into the past lives of people and tell their stories was a miracle.

When she first appeared on the scene, people were sceptical. How could she possibly know anything about anyone’s past life except the individuals themselves? But she had proven, time and time again that this was no gimmick. She had been given this gift from God himself, as many had said. But this even went beyond being a gift from the Lord, nobody knew the scale of this but it was much bigger than anything in the world.

She had gained respect and loyalty from the masses over the last five years and her gift was indeed real. Her popularity rose but also set fear in those who looked for answers. The price, £10, 000 for one ticket, was mere pocket change; people had sold their life belongings to be here. It was the one year wait that intensified it all. You couldn’t put a price on this phenomenon. The Clairvoyants and Psychics who could possibly predict your future were all at a loss over the years; they themselves had witnessed something beyond anything that they had known. It just blew people’s minds as there was no doubt about the capabilities of this gift that was bestowed upon them.

Before any of the shows, individuals had to sign a contract of being there of their own free will and to respect whatever the outcome may be. If it came to light that they were part of anyone’s story, they were responsible, ready for any good or bad consequences that might occur. After many of her shows, people went into shock or passed out; others were arrested for crimes committed in their past, which they thought were hidden but had now
