After the long hour of prayers, I remembered Sunday was going to be Valentine’s Day.

“Dave, Sunday is Val’s day o. I haven’t seen you preparing anything for me” I said, arms akimbo and shaking my head. He smiled.

“Hmmm, my love, preparation is on. It would be a blast” he said. I raised my nose and widened my eyes.

“Blast ke! Na lie o. I don’t want any blast o. That’s how he would give someone bomb blast” I said and he laughed loudly.

“Bomb blast bawo?” Mummy asked in a ‘Yoruba mum’ way. I pulled mum to the bed and started the tale.

“See, my husband promised last Valentine was going to be the bomb. I was enthusiastic and wondered that what surprise did he have and so on. When I woke up that day, hmmm…Dorcas, you are hearing too abi…”
She nodded, smiling and obviously enjoying the tale.

“That was our wedding day, you know?” I asked to be sure that everyone remembered. Mum’s mouth opened in remembrance.

“That is true o. Your wedding will be one next tomorrow. Many congratulations o. Awesome! I had forgotten totally” she said

“That day he sent me a ‘I love you’ text. Just, ‘I love you’. I forgave him and got him a pair of very beautiful and costly loafers, exquisite perfume, a YSL bag and a complete suit. It took me a fortune then. How much was my salary then” I laughed and everyone joined.

David gave me a ‘You are washing my dirty linen outside’ look but I didn’t care because I had to finish this story.

“When I would see my husband’s delivery at around 6am by the courier, it was a chocolate cake, really beautiful and a bible. Imagine!”

“Ah! David o!” Mummy exclaimed, beating my laps with excitement. I must really be good story teller! Mummy enjoyed it so obviously.
David covered his face.

“Over spiritual brother. Very ‘unromantic’!” I said again

“With the numerous Bibles she has Dave!” Mum laughed

“I am making it up for you this time around dear. You’ll love it” he tried to defend himself.

“Hmmm…I hope so o” I said, widening my nose.

“Let’s hope so together dear daughter. If it’s not nice, then we will pounce on him together” Mum said again. I hugged her. She was like my mother.

“My gift should be nice too o.” he said and charged at him.

“What other gift do you want? I have given you my body”

“I have given you my body too”

“I have given you my love”

“I have given you greater love”

“Eh eh! Wonders shall never end o” Mummy clapped her hands together.

“I gave you Blossom” he said

“No! You only gave me the seed” I said

“Well, I have given you care”

“I’ve given you care too plus my heart” he said. I smiled but I won’t give up.

“I also went through pain for you.”

“Pain?” his eyes widened

“Yes, pain! The pain of child birth” I said and he raised his hands up in surrender. Mama jumped up and clapped for me.

“That is it o. Women always win” she laughed and Dorcas also smiled weakly

“Dorcas please go and sleep in the guest room. I will prepare you pepper soup and bring it to you. Sorry my dear” I said and she nodded and left.

“Now Dave, I have a special gift for you. I will give it to you that day” I said. He smiled happy and before I knew it, he carried me up and swirled me round. Sweet mum smiled and left the room, closing the bedroom door behind her.

Dave put me down. I covered my eyes as I felt very dizzy. Then, he held my hands and looked at me with straight eyes.

“Liz, I will always love you. I will cherish you and care for you always!” He said.

My Dave wasn’t shy! He wasn’t hiding his face. He was looking at me with sincerity. It felt strange as I looked into his face.

“Dave, where is the guy I married?” I asked him again.

“Hmmm…you want to know? I will show you where the guy you married is on Sunday. It’s going to be a good day!” he said as he pulled me to himself and then I was rest assured!

The guy I married was resurfacing and then he is changed- beautifully!

CONTD...

“Mum, I am all ears” I said looking into her face without blinking, smile glued to my face.

“See, in a chapter, Jesus asked his disciples that who do people think he was. Different answers came from different disciples but Peter said ‘You are Christ’. Jesus was glad and he said it was the Spirit that had revealed it to him and that on him the church would be built and the gates of hell shall not prevail.” She preached and I really watched on with keen interest. I wanted to see where my mother-in-law was going to land.

Dave remained silent all along and watched on like the culprit!

“Can you imagine that the next chapter, just few minutes after, another thing happened entirely” she said on. I had never really heard that story before.

‘I really need to start reading my bible’ I thought to myself. Dorcas was still on the floor, looking lifeless. It was her constant sniffing that showed me that she was still alive.

“Mum, continue with the story please” I said with enthusiasm.

“Jesus was telling them again about his imminent death and Peter said ‘God forbid!’ Jesus, being so wise realized that it was not him that was talking. The devil only wanted to use someone that Jesus loved against him. He rebuked him instantly.”

“Wow!” I exclaimed so loudly that Blossom stirred. Dave also nodded, obviously being inspired too.

“If Peter could almost be used against Jesus, how about Dave? How about Dorcas? How about I, your mum-in-law?”

“Wow wow wow” I looked up at the ceiling and blew air from my mouth in total surrender.

“My wonderful daughter, to err is human…”

“…to forgive divine” I completed it for her and sighed as I stood up.

“Forgive everybody and then start your family anew. Silver and gold I have not but what I have I have given you my children” she concluded, hands up.

Dave stood up, laid Blossom in his mum’s arms and walked towards me. He hugged me and pecked my forehead again.

“Liz, let’s do it. Forgive your cousin. Forgive me too” he said as he pulled me closer to Dorcas. I paused and turned to look into Dave’s face.

“Where are those pictures now?” I asked suddenly. Dave arched his face and smiled.
“I have long deleted them from my phone. I don’t do all those again. I am a changed guy” he said.

“Hmmm! Mum, thanks for this eye-opening sermon. Now I know that one has to be a guard against the enemy because he can possess anybody to torment us. Unfortunately for Dorcas, she was a ready vessel. God have mercy!” I shuddered.

Suddenly, the potency of prayer dawned on me.

“Dearie, oh what thing we often forfeit…” Dave started a beautiful chorus

“…oh what needless blame we bear…” I continued as I nodded thoughtfully.

“…all because we do not carry…” Sweet mother joined the chorus

“…everything to God in prayer” I concluded and moved close to Dorcas. I bent beside her, pulled her to a kneeling position and hugged her. She was fragile as I held her close and she shook violent with great fervor as she wept. I wept too as I pecked her cheek severally.
My sweet teenage cousin!

“Dorkie sweerie, it’s okay” I said, pulled her back gently to see her face and she looked away as the cries went on. I could see her efforts to stop crying but the brake had failed.

“Dorkie sweerie, look into mama’s face now. If not I will be angry o” I said and she looked at me briefly.

“Now smile” I said but she couldn’t until I sat on the bare floor and tickled her so greatly. She fell at my side with great laughter mixed with her tears and constant sobs.

Sweet mother pulled Dave to her side and they joined us on the floor. We sat down, held our hands and there and then we prayed fervently for greater restoration, forgiveness and mercy.

>>>>>>>>>>>>IT CONTINUES...

Episode 6

THE PENULTIMATE

Sweet Mother went out of the room to open the main door for Dorcas leaving Dave and I inside the room.

I concentrated on Blossom that was feeding quietly while pulling at my weave. I was trying to pull myself together. I swallowed several times perhaps the liquid can quench the burning that had started in my chest.

Dave’s arm coiled round my neck and he pulled me close. Blossom looked up and smiled so heartily at the union but my baby’s smile didn’t do me anything.

What is Dorcas coming to do here? Is she perhaps coming to confront me? Over my own husband?

“It’s not going to happen” Dave said as if he knew what was going on in my heart. I looked up at him and faked a smile.

“Nothing you are thinking about will happen. Now, give me your hand and trust me” He said and even when I was reluctant and slow, he laid hold of my hand and held it with confidence.

“Let’s do this together” he said and I swallowed again before sighing deeply.

“But must she come into our bedroom?” I asked, almost with disgust. My husband smiled and tickled me briefly on the cheek.

“She is still your cousin and you are not even so strong now to move here and there? Let her come in”

“Ok o” I said with mixed feelings. I wanted to do God’s will of forgiveness and look beyond Dorcas’ fault but I didn’t want to set my eyes on her.

Or better put, I didn’t want Dave to set his eyes on her.

What would be on his mind when he sees her? Won’t he remember the nude pictures? Dave is also human o. I hope he won’t be imagining things!

The door opened and we heard some footsteps

“And here we are!” Sweet Mother announced and I really could not look back to see the duo.

“Liz, my dear, should we leave both of you alone so that you can fight and settle as cousins?” Sweet Mother asked and I quickly looked back at her.

“No mum.” I said so firmly and Sweet Mother laughed

“Omo mi o. See how you screamed as if I asked you to stay indoors alone with an armed robber. She is your cousin o. Dorkies sweerie”

Dave squeezed my shoulder and patted me. I saw on his face a very faint regrettable smile. I felt a pang of pain in my heart.

I should not make Dave feel like this anymore. I had to do something.

Blossom had dozed off, so it was easy to take her off me. I laid her into Dave’s waiting arms and then I stood up. I took in few breaths of air

“Holy Spirit, what should I do? Give me the wisdom to handle things.” I muttered and sneaked a peep at Dave who smiled somehow. I am sure he was not happy about the stress I was going through. I gave him a reassuring smile and looked towards the door when Dorcas was.
She looked very haggard and hungry.

“Come inside Dorcas” that was the first time I would call my baby cousin Dorcas. It was always ‘Dorkies sweerie’ or simply ‘Dorkies’. She staggered into the room, her eyes red from a long period of crying I presumed. My heart melted as she looked at me with fear and anguish. She looked very weak and famished and I almost started to cry.

“What’s wrong with you?” I asked with a great concern. Dorcas fell before me and reached for my legs.

“Aunty, I am sick…I’m very sick” her hands were scaly on my soft feet and her voice was husky.

“What’s the problem?” I asked, very scared.

‘Hope this girl has not come to die o’ I thought. I looked at Dave and Sweet Mother, searching for the answer in their faces but they were as clueless as I was.

“Aunty, I allowed the devil to use me. I tempted Uncle Dave by sending my nude pictures to him on a daily basis but he never yielded to me. Since I left, I have never peace. Something was telling me to come and tell you but I refused. I have been bedridden for two weeks now in school. I could tell nobody. See me now my sister and forgive me. I have been seeing you in my dreams for many days now chasing me with different weapons shouting and crying that I should leave your husband.” She cried on and on very weakly.

“Hmmmm” Sweet Mother sighed out deeply and shook her head.

“Holy Spirit!” I exclaimed as the realization of everything the Holy Spirit had been teaching me reached my comprehension.

“Daughter, I said I was going to fight for you and you shall hold your peace. Now pull her close to you and bless her just like Abraham prayed for Abimelech and his household” The Holy Spirit spoke audibly into my ears.

I shook my head in awe as I fell back into my bed. I thought aloud.

‘So, this is how God fights for His people! I sleep here very unhappy and God takes up the rod and other objects and allows my enemies to be pursued about, giving them sleepless nights? Awesome God!”

Sweet Mother came close to me, put her hands on my shoulder and smiled.

“Daughter, I know how you really feel right now but you have to forgive” She said and I smiled.

“Mum, I have truly forgiven her” I said with all sincerity but my mother in law was not convinced.

“It’s easier said than done my dear. Now, listen to me as I give you a biblical illustration. Are you listening to me?” she asked me, nudging me so that I was jolted back to reality as I was really lost in the wonderland.

IT CONTINUES STILL....

>>>>>>>>>>>>CONTD....

I sneezed so loudly that it felt like my ribs were rubbing against one another.

“Oh, my love! Liz, can you see me?” My husband’s shaky voice rang in my ears. He was holding my hands so tightly.

I sneezed again and his hands helped me up. I opened my eyes and saw faintly the face of my one and only husband.

He was sweating profusely.

“Dear, it is well with you in Jesus’ Name. Forgive me of all my errors. I am so sorry dear. I have always loved you and I will still love you. You can’t die now because we do not have a covenant to die prematurely. You can never ever die now…” he continued on and on and I could only smile as my tears freely flowed. I hugged him as weakly as I could, placed my head on my firm pillow- his muscular chest and sighed with relaxation and relief.

“No one takes my husband away from me. I have carelessly left my gate opened but now the gate keeper is back.” I said clearly as if the devil was visible.

Dave pushed me gently to see my face and sure he did. His face shone with delight as he pulled me back to himself.

“Let’s do it together love. Let’s guard our marriage together” He said

“Yes, lets do it. I will grow now. Grow up from being Dave’s number one fan spiritually to being your mother, your sister, your lover, your teacher, your everything after God”

“Then, I David Anjolaoluwa will be your Father, your brother, your lover, your husband, your friend, your teacher, your everything. So help me God!” He prayed with strong sincerity and determination. I sat up well, still feeling dizzy.

I faced him squarely and smiled heartily. I was ready to play. He didn’t know what I was up to but he smiled

“Dave, are we good to go?” I asked and he laughed loudly

“Good to go! Good to go! Good to go ma!” he played along remembering our NYSC Man O war chants.

“It’s still sir jhur! In the military world, a woman is a man, so its sir. Okay?”

“Ok! ok! ok! sir!” he replied obediently, giving me a salute.

“Are you motivated?” I asked on.

“Motivated! motivated! motivated sir!”
I pulled Dave up then I staggered under the weight of the pull but he was there to hold me up.

“Morale!” I shouted as far as the little strength could carry me, lifting my right hand.

My husband looked into my face with astonishment and laughed. He joined his hand with mine and shouted.

“High!”

We both laughed together heartily and I knelt down before him.

That would be the first time I would do that since we got married after our engagement ceremony.

“Dave thanks for loving me with the love of God. I am sorry for my past negligence. I will love you, treasure you, serve you, and reverence you as I have been called to do. I love you so much dear” I said as I held his two legs, bathing his feet with my tears.
He knelt beside me and pulled me from my bowing position, tears on his face too.

“Instead of me standing and you bowing in service to me, why not lets kneel beside each other in service to each other? Liz, look into my face and watch my lips.”

I did!

“I will treat you like a princess that you are so that you will know of a surety that I have been raised by a queen” he said without mincing words.

I smiled because for real, my mother in law was a queen! A very good one at that!

“Amen my love. Thank you so much”

I said and we embraced each other.

He concluded the intimate exercise with a peck on my forehead.

“I adore you!” said a female voice behind us.

We turned back and at the door stood my able, beautiful and outstanding mother in law with Blossy strapped to her back. I smiled

“Mummy!” I called out as she walked inside. I stood up and went to her. I knelt down beside her and she laughed loudly

“I am happy for you my children. Liz, do you know that when a guy pecks your forehead, he says, ‘I adore you, not for sex, not for pleasure, that is why I am not kissing your mouth, but for being you, I peck your forehead. Blessed be the womb that bore you’ that is the long message that brief peck is passing across”

I never knew that was what it meant and I was really grateful for this knowledge.

“Mummy, thanks” those were the only words I could say.

“Now my daughter, though I appreciate the fact that I came to carry Blossom yesterday…”

“Today mum…” I tried correcting my Sweet Mother as I called her when she laughed aloud

“So, you didn’t know that since you fainted last night, we have had a vigil beside you, praying for you? Its morning already dear, its six o’clock”

“Wow! So its morning! That’s serious.”

“Thank God you woke up before Valentines day” Dave said and I laughed

“How could I have fainted for that long Dave! Anyways, have you eaten your pounded yam and Egusi soup?” I looked into his face. Sweet mother laughed

“Eat indeed, when his missing rib was really missing, sleeping almost lifelessly on the bed?”

“Awww…see, in this house I won’t make you anymore pounded yam. You wasted my efforts” I acted a kid again.

He pouted his lips apologetically

“I am sorry love” he apologized

“I go love o” Sweet mother laughed out loudly

“I ate it for him so it didn’t waste” she added and I nodded affirmatively

“Mo mo mo mo…tah tah tah..” Blossy babbled as she signaled at me, trying to fly from Sweet Mother’s back.

“That’s true o. my baby!” I cried out as I scurried to her side.

“That is exactly what I was trying to say. Thank God I came for her yesterday at least all differences is gone but again, the baby is famished. I pray there still remains more food in mummy’s jug” Sweet mother said as she eased Blossom off her back and we laughed.

“That’s true o. I pray it’s not sour yet” I said as I pecked my baby’s cheek. I really have missed her and no wonder my chest had been so heavy!

As I set Blossy down to feed her, the doorbell rang. Dave was near the receiver in the room, so he pressed the hands free receiver.

“Who is at the door?” he asked

“Its me, Dorcas!” we heard and we all looked at one another knowingly.
I sighed deeply and looked at Dave. Dave twisted his lips in a ‘I don’t know why she is here’ manner.

My heart started racing again as the Holy Spirit whispered so tenderly

“Calm down daughter! Calm down!”

Episode 5

The darkness was as thick as anything!

I could see nothing but darkness!

I could feel nothing but darkness!

I even tasted darkness!

Then, fear set in, then insecurity, then anguish, then the sudden realization that it might be that I am in hell and then, I screamed so loudly I felt I was going to vomit my internal organs.

“Where am i? Can someone please talk to me?” I cried out and listened for any response.

My voice reverberated in the darkness as thickly as the darkness.

“You want someone to speak to you?”

A light flashed from behind me as the voice spoke. I looked behind me but saw nothing but the same darkness.

The voice sounded so familiar that it hurt my heart that I couldn’t place the owner.

“Who is that? And where am i?”

“It’s a pity that my daughter doesn’t understand my voice again ” the voice came again, there was light briefly again.

That’s the voice! The voice of the Holy Spirit and I was so joyful.

“Daddy, I have missed you but what’s this darkness? Am I dead?” I asked with misgiving.

“Daughter, you are in bitterness. You are embittered against your husband, your cousin, yourself, your marriage and even your Lord. The darkness you are inside right now shows how dark your bitterness is. Bitterness is darkness!”

“Really! So I am going to hell?” I asked as my heart started beating fast.

“Daughter, today is not the day of judgment so be grateful to God. God really loves you daughter. He wants you to love Him as much as He does”

“Daddy, I was just so disappointed at everything. I didn’t bargain for this when I agreed to marry Dave. My marriage isn’t working out”

“That’s true daughter. Your marriage isn’t working out but you have not failed yet. You should not be embittered against anyone but the devil.”

“Ok daddy, please just get me out of this darkness first” I said desperately and there and then, light shone.

The brightness was just too much. It radiated round where I was. I was on my face and my hands grabbed the two legs before me.

“How do you feel now dear daughter?” he asked in His sweet voice. I spoke and my voice sounded angelic in my ears.

“It’s much better. It’s very bright but I prefer it. I prefer it to that darkness”

“Now, let me explain certain things to you daughter” he said and helped me up.

He put his arms round me as we walked through the beautiful environment that gave way as we approached.

“Dave has been a very great son of God since being in the university, working miracles and signs through the power of God. He has really stepped on the toes of the devil and he is bent on destroying him”

“Hmmmm. The devil is sure a wicked man, doomed for hell!” I cried out

“Take it easy daughter. Just calm down and listen first!” he said firmly
I became silent.

“The devil was ready to confuse him when he was to choose his life partner when sisters from the fellowship would stick to his side doing this and that for him but by God’s grace, he overcame. He was not shaken” he paused again.

I nodded as I listened carefully

“He chose you, married you, prayed for you and he has loved you greatly till date. Even when his heart was drifting away due to sins, he still loved you.”

“Wow!” I exclaimed. I had always known he loved me but I was happy that the Holy Spirit confirmed it.

“You got pregnant immediately you got married according to God’s will but the devil determined to kill you. Dave was always praying for you until Dorcas came in. In love for you to be taken care of, he accepted Dorcas into your home and that was the mistake. He didn’t pray about it. He didn’t even have anyone to pray for him. You were too weak to pray for your husband – your own mistake but God has been faithful”

“Hmmm…thank you Lord o” I said with gratitude

“You case is like Abraham and Abimelech. You were Abraham and you gave your husband Sarah, to Abimelech which is Dorcas. Now, Dorcas working under the influence of the devil kept on enticing Sarah but the Lord did not allow them to touch each other”

“Thank you father. But God, I have really noticed a great change in my husband towards me”

“You have not really been there for your husband my daughter.”

It was like a shock to my ears. I thought I had given all I had to Dave.

“See, if you have a husband that is 90% sound spiritually, I tell you that you have to be 80% sound or more. This is because if he slips, he falls into your ready arms and it’s easier to help him go back higher. Imagine the wife being 20% spiritually sound and the husband falls; that would be a brutal fall”

The realization dawned on me. I had never taken my spiritual life seriously. I only depended on Dave’s spiritual life. I was his fan!

“The devil came in the hour when Dave was not watchful and the gate was opened because the Gate keeper which is you were sleeping”

“Ah! It’s my entire fault. What should I do now my father?”

“First, Dorcas isn’t your enemy. She was only used by the devil against you. Your husband needs you more than before. Pray for him, join him in fasting, cherish him, love him, attend to his needs and also work on your appearance and the neatness of the house as Dave loves it”

“So, I need spiritual, emotional and physical refurbishing?” I asked

“Exactly my daughter. That’s what you need”

“Help me Lord”

“Also my daughter, never silence me when I try to talk to you. It grieves me”

“I apologize my Lord.” I cried out

IT CONTINUES STILL....

“Those 3 weeks were like numerous years to me. But before then, all sexual activities between us had come to an end. You were in a pitiable condition. Eventually, three weeks to giving birth, you were admitted in the hospital and I was also busy with the end of the year reports in the office. Mum went for checkup in America and your mum was in France with her ailing mother. They had to employ Dorcas, you cousin to come over here to provide food for you and I”

He stopped and covered his face with his hands. He sniffed wetly and continued.

My heart started racing as if a thousand soldiers were in pursuit of it.

“It had always been like that until a particular day, three days before Blossom was born. I was in the Hospital parking lot. My head was on the steering. I was not too happy about the medical report that the baby was still breech.” He said again while I watched on. I was scared than ever before.

What then happened?

“Just then, a hand touched my shoulder. I was scared but I looked up anyway. It was Dorcas. She smiled and I smiled too, as per, my wife’s cousin showing me care.

Then her hand travelled to my chest and she asked subtly, almost seductively ‘How have you been coping?’ I looked up at her and saw the dangerous look on her face. I was scared and threw her hand away” Dave stood up and moved to the window side, his arms akimbo. I followed every of his gestures and movements.

“Then, she looked straight as if she was hurt. ‘I was only trying to be nice’ she said and I looked at her with concern that what does a fifteen year old girl knows?

She started crying that I misunderstood her. I stretched out my hand to pat her back when she came close and placed her head on my chest…” he continued and I just couldn’t believe my ears.

My heart started pumping as I brought the story to life in my imagination.

“Then she asked me so seductively ‘don’t you want me as much as I do?’ that was when I knew that it was a dangerous trap. I pushed her off me, opened the door of my car, closed the door and then leaned against the car. It was a real temptation but I didn’t know what to do. I put her in a taxi and I drove home locking the door of my room. I couldn’t believe what happened to me” he said again.

The realization dawned on me. My husband was seduced by my cousin while I was away!

I started feeling the pangs of attack in my chest again. It tightened the more but I fought it.

I gat to listen to this story to the end!

“Liz, when I got to the room, I knelt down to pray against it all but the thought started coming to my head. I couldn’t resist it. I prayed and cried to God but my dear, I was weak. That night, she sent me one of her nude pictures and that was how everything started. I sent her a text message that she should not allow God’s wrath upon her for sending that kind of picture but instead of deleting it, I started mesmerizing myself with it.

Every day, she sent more and more and though I never allowed her close to me, I anticipated more of the nude pictures every day.” He sat down again and supported his chins with his palms as tears rolled down his face.
My wheezing had started but I tried to suppress it so the story teller wont end his account.

“Dear, I was forced to barge in on her one day while she was bathing. She was very happy to see me and she signaled for me to come closer. I ran out of her bathroom but the picture remained in my head for a long time”

“Jesus!” I cried out with pain.

My tears were as hot as a hot pack against my face as they streamed down. He cried too but continued.
“You were discharged and I looked forward to meeting you as a husband to a wife but your stitched tummy couldn’t allow me. Then, I resorted to watching porn and masturbating” he said and fell on his knees.

“Ah! Oh God!” I cried out. I didn’t know who to get angry at.

Myself for getting sick, God for making me pregnant with serious discomfort, Cousin Dorcas that seduced my husband, or Dave that was only responding to human urge since his wife was not available.

Who should I get angry at? I cried and cried.

Dorcas!
Devilish Dorcas!!
Demonic Devilish Dorcas!!!

I fell into the bad and cried very hard.

“God, why couldn’t you keep my husband for me?” I asked on and on.

I was embittered and very angry.

As I pulled at the pillow angrily, the stress was too much for my little heart.

I wheezed harder and phew! I passed out!!

I was flushed down through a pipeline or sort. I saw thick darkness as if i could touch it.

Where am i?
Am i dead?
Where is Dave?

==Watch out for Episode 5==

“My wife! My lovely wife! I know my God will keep you for me but please don’t die! Please don’t die my dear. I can’t imagine living in this world without you. Please” He cried on and on.

“Ohhhh! Dave, come on, talk!” I gave out the command as if my time on earth is already measured and almost up.

“I didn’t have an affair outside our marriage nor do I have any child out of wedlock. You are the first woman I would meet and Blossom is the first and only child I have” he said and I tried to be calm but my wheezing didn’t agree with me. I heaved a sigh of relief though.

“So, can I get you your inhaler?” He asked, still very concerned about me.

I nodded in the affirmative and he brought it to me. He signaled for me to open my mouth and I obeyed.

As he delivered the dose into my airways while holding my nose, a tear ran down my face. He saw it, looked into my face, cleaned it and hugged me tightly as if his life depended on it.

I needed the hug badly. It really helped me to calm down. I wheezed on and on till it totally subsided. With my head still on his chest, I let out a deep breath.

“I am okay now” I said as I cleared my throat.

He withdrew and stood up from his sitting position. He helped me to sit down on the bed. Then, he took few steps backwards and sat in the armchair.

“Lizzy! Whatever I say here today requires your anger, your tears, your disappointment but please whatever I have done does not worth your tears. You are too precious for those” he said, tears welling up in his eyes.

I was too weak to say anything so I just nodded as tears welled up in my eyes too.

“It all started in the third trimester of your pregnancy. You were not too strong and all and my mother came to take you to her place for 3 weeks. I really missed you and I was always coming over to check on you.” He shook his head, bowed his head and breathed out so loudly.

I could only watch on.

IT CONTINUES.....

CONTD...

Dave made an attempt to hold me round the shoulders but I refused the offer.

My chest was on fire. It was burning so fiercely.

“Since, its death you want me to die, I’ll say yes! I will die but before I go, tell me what you have to tell me” I forced the words out of my mouth.

It wasn’t convenient sitting down any longer, so I knelt with my chest on the bed if that would ease my pains.
It intensified.

“Lizzy, I can’t tell you anything at this point. Please” He was saying with great concern on his face.

I threw him a dangerous look with my mouth suspended as I struggled for air.

“Then, there would be problem. Tell me now or there would be problem in this house” I threatened.

“Ok then. Liz, please be well first. At least, use your inhaler first. I know how you feel.” He was saying but his preaching didn’t go well with me as I struggled to shift from the bed, caught him by his two legs and onto the bed he fell. He was somewhat shocked at my sudden power. I pulled him down the bed and held him by the neck. He looked at me with great fear.

“Will you talk now?” I wheezed on.

He nodded like an agama lizard.

I loosened my grip on his neck and he prostrated face down before me.

IT CONTINUES....

queenDD:
Yaay! Thanks alot for the invite, I'm so following.

Episode 4

I shook from head to toes.

Dave has finally succeeded in killing me!

Everything he is babbling about could be handled by a Christian wife perhaps but not me! My faith hasn’t reached that level yet.

He has been disgusted by his wife of just one year to the extent that he resorted to watching porn and probably masturbating. Now, he says there are more confessions.

He has an affair out of wedlock? Then I will leave him, forever!

He has a child outside?

Jesus, what would I do? I will kill myself

He has multiple baby mamas?

Ah! I will kill him, then precious Blossy, then myself.

“Liz, easy! Take it easy” The Holy Spirit started speaking again.
I reversed and sat on the bed. My two legs couldn’t bear the shock anymore. They started hitting each other.

I started having a mild chest pressure. I could feel air struggling to pass through my bronchi.

Another attack is looming! But abeg, let asthma stay aside.

As I let out a very dry cough and started wheezing, Dave rushed to me, tears still on his face.

“Liz, I am sorry. Should I get you your inhaler?” He asked me.

I saw concern on his face but my health isn’t the most important now. it’s the issue on ground.

“Tell me what you have to say to me then I will decide either to die or live” I wheezed on and on.

IT CONTINUES STILL.....

“Let me also read this passage to you my dear husband. Malachi chapter 2 verses 14. ‘You ask why? It is because the Lord is the witness between you and the wife of your youth. You have been unfaithful to her, though she is your partner, the wife of your marriage covenant.”

“Jesus! Liz, what are you saying? What are you talking about? When did I cheat on you? How?” He asked on, looking at me with such pitiful face that I felt like I was a mad woman. I shook my head.

“I am not mad! I know what I am saying!” I told myself loudly.
Confusion set in and I didn’t know what to do. I cannot believe its me teasing my husband with what rightly belongs to him.

Too much of some kinds of movies though! They taught me!

‘What is happening to me? Is this how to honor my husband? Isn’t this disrespect of the highest order? See his face, looking like he wants to cry!’ I thought to myself.

“I didn’t bargain for this Lord. I never ever imagined shouting at Dave. I am confused. I am so so confused. Why did he cheat on me? Why has he been unfaithful to me? Why?” I started crying again!

Oh my tears duct! It’s always falling my hands! It doesn’t obey me at all! The tears flowed.

Dave stood up from the bed and came close to me. He reached for me but I avoided his hands

“Don’t touch me! Your hands are filthy…Dave, they are so filthy…” I continued in my cries.

Dave started sniffing wetly too. I looked into his eyes- he was crying. I stopped crying. I tried to see clearly from the clouds of my tears.
“What is it?” I asked.

Why is he crying? Is he really cheating on me? As i Saw him crying profusely, i became afraid.
“Liz….” He was saying when he stopped again. He cried on and on.

Jesus!

Help me not to die from my anxiety o!

I am very mad because he was watching porn. Because of porn and nothing more! Can I bear him telling me he has a girlfriend or he probably has a child out-of-wedlock? In fact, I will die!

I looked into his face so deeply and he looked into mine. His stream of tears mixed with the small puddles of sweat on his face to make a sea!

I have never seen him cry before!

Everything is strange!

“Liz, I have a confession to make” he said and held my two hands. I started shaking. I was speechless.

“Please forgive me Liz” he said on shaking with tears so badly. I stood up.

Holy Spirit, is this also a storm that would pass?

I really needed strength!

I was weak. My knees couldn’t carry me.

I have never bargained for this

Where is the guy I married?

What does this guy want to say?

Oh God! I’m scared!!!
