“Aunty, I know it is fear and love for Morayo speaking right now, but Idon‟tthinkweshouldletitpushusintocommittingmurder,Abortionis murder...”

“Evenwhenthepregnancythreatensthelifeofthemother?”Libraasked

“Aunty, Let us pray till daybreak...Whatever God tells us to do , we will do.We should not be afraid of what a mere man like Lefty can do and sinagainst the Great God. Bible says, those that know their God shall be strongand they shall do Exploits. Our God can not let Lefty kill Morayo and thebaby, If we tarryinHisPresence.”Adasaid
“ OK OOO, Assistant HolySpirit...To think I was planning to fly you both toAmericaimmediatelyaftertheabortionsoyoucangostartyourlifethere...”Librasaidangrily.

Ada realized the game; Wisdom and Osas could not convince them to abortthe pregnancy,   they passed the work to Aunt Libra who nurtured them fora while to gain their trust just like the dog trusted her owners. Aunty Librawaitedfortherighttimetobring upthetopicofkillingthe baby.

“ Then she must be in danger, we must pray for her. She must get out ofthere. Remember when Peter was in Prison, the brethren interceeded forHim and the Angel of the Lord brought him out of the Prison.” Chinedusaid.

God expressly told them to stay put and pray. They were told not to reachout to Morayo and Libra. Bayo was able to overcome the Masturbation. Hestruggled at first but Bible Reading and prayers helped a lot. Anytime hehadthe urge, he wouldrise upandprayin tongues.

Librahadnotbeenveryactiveinhergamehunting,becauseofhermother‟s health. The paralysis had affected a lot of organs importantly her speech.Morayo had insisted she would keep the pregnancy and nothing was goingto happen to her. The next seven months after that night, the two girls tooktheirChristianlifeseriously.MorayokepthopingLeftywouldcallhersomeday, but it never happened.Ada had consoled her telling her shewouldbe fine.

Libra had gone back to default setting, she was going to patiently wait forthe arrival of the baby. Libra was not as friendly as she used to be to thegirls,infactshehadwithdrawnherplansofINTERNATIONALsponsorship from Ada saying she could not go through with it anymore.

Ada had on several occasions wanted to leave Libra's place, but whenevershe prayed, she will hear “ HOLD YOUR PEACE & KNOW THAT I AMYOURGOD".
Morayo was quite cooperative with Ada, as Ada kept encouraging her tellingher Aunty Libra was not their god, If Aunty Libra was not going to helpthemanymoreGodwasgoing to raise upsomeoneelse.

Evil 1

-
Evil 1 ……………………………….. Ruth walked along the pedestrian way with bags hanging from her hands. She dragged her tired feet with her mind focused on reaching her destination; her home. She’d gone out as usual to sample some textile materials to people and hoped they would buy. That was her business and the family depended majorly on the income from it. Her husband, Tunde, had become almost dependent since after losing his job in a bottling company some years back. Since then, he had refused fo seek for a permanent employment and only engaged in ‘adhoc’ employments which came once in a while. Sadly, she made no sales that day after trekking around the town under the scorching sun. As she walked carrying her bags of textile materials and hoping to get home before her tired legs would give way, a mad man walked briskly past her. It was not a thing to worry about as mad people were common sights around the town. But after taking a few steps forward, the mad man ran back and tapped her on the s...

COMING TO LAGOS      CONTINUATION. . . Coming To Lagos. . . Ep 12 Anita. I haven’t called her yet since the dream I had. I decided to try her number. “Hello! Hello!!” I said into the receiver as I couldn’t hear anything from the other end but she had picked the call. I had to put my phone on speaker to support the normal speaker and that was when I heard it. “What’s wrong, Anita? Are you crying?” “He wants to kell me.” “Who? Who wants to kell you?” I asked sitting up on my bed. “My boyfriend. . . He. . He wants to kill me.” “Where are you?” “I’m inside and I have locked the door. I heard him stepping out and once he returns, he’ll kill me.” “No matter what us happening, you can’t sleep there tonight. Have you called anyone whom you can stay with?” “I just called two of my friends but the said they’re not around. I’m dead.” She begins to weep again. I couldn’t help but wonder what must have happened but he’s just her boyfriend, why would he hit her? After few minutes of si...

My mother married my husband 6

My mother married my husband Episode 6 I didn't have anywhere to sleep, I couldn't go back to the village. People will begin to ask questions, I sold all the jewelry Femi bought for me since we got married. I used the money to rent a small apartment, got a bed, and other little things I needed.  The compound wasn't much but I had to manage knowing it's my starting point in life. I never got rid of my son's clothes, I made sure they where still safe in his boxes. Sometimes I sleep on them, imaging he was there with me.  I got back to the hospital for my son's body, I wept so much when I saw jimmy cold and stiff in a white dress. I took to the general cemetery and buried him, my tears that day knew no bounds.  I felt like dying with Jimmy, I felt like all hope was lost. I sat close to his grave singing his favourite gospel song, telling him how much I miss him and love him.  "Jimmy I promise you on this day January 3rd 2015, I will never forget you, I will ne...
