BETWEEN DADDY AND DADDY

*******************9️⃣******************

I left Eka alone. And invested my energy into prayers for my marriage.

In the afternoon I spent some times with my daughter. I was surprised that we had nothing to talk about aside from the time I shared the word of God with her.

I often wondered what she and Eka were always busy discussing that you’d hear their inaudible sound from her room always.

At night when Bidemi returned, he was bearing my favorite bread, mega chicken chocolate bread. I wanted to rush it because I had missed it when I remembered that this is a plan by him and Ekaete to give me bread of sorrow and what better bread is better used to achieve that, than my very own favorite.

“Tolani, I bought your favorite bread and some nuts. I figured it’s been long you ate those too” Bidemi said.

Ahhh… I saw the serpent that wants to destroy me speaking through him.

Yes! I am a terror to the kingdom of darkness that’s why they are devising every means to get at me.

I smiled. Went into my room and said a short thanksgiving prayer for my parents in the lord. They are a perfect gift, a lagniappe.

In the evening I ran to my parents in the lord and told them that their prophesy really came through. They encouraged me to share the testimony of how I escaped death by poisoning from my husband and his side chic living under my roof.

I was skeptical about it. Something didn’t feel right about it. How can I go and testify that Bidemi wanted to kill me with Eka, what if he hears of it. He can sue me and I have no core evidence. The law has no business with spiritual matters. But, who are my to disobey my father in the lord, daddy GO, God’s right hand man. The ororo of God’s kingdom himself, the oracle of God. How dare I even conceive such thoughts in my mind. I began to cast and bind that voice of the flesh.

“Where is my husband?” I asked Eka as I sank onto the sofa, tired from so much prayers.

“He is not back yet”

“Till this time? Let me call to find out what is wrong” I called severally but his phones were off.

I went inside to pray for his safety. Though I was sure he’d either be in traffic or had late night scenes to shoot. Whichever one, he needed prayers and God’s protection.

After praying, I didn’t know when I slept off.

I woke up and glanced at the wall clock, it was 11:34pm. I searched our room with my eyes, there was no sign of Bidemi, my husband. I ran to the sitting room and found Eka sitting there panting.

“Is he not yet back?”

“No madam”

“And why are you still awake and worried?”

“If I go to bed now, who’d open the gate for him, serve his food and run his bath incase he decides to have a ceremonial soak”

I looked at her in dismay, how did the illiterate I employed end up knowing even morethan me in my home.

“I’m going back to pray for my husband. You can go to bed, I’d be vigilant Incase he knocks”

She hesitantly went in.

I wondered if this girl now loves my husband morethan I do. She cares extremely for him, even a blind man could tell.

I know she’s soft, attentive and very caring to every one. But, it’s a little extra on the side of my husband.

I know Daddy had given me the prophesy of her affair with my husband and as I looked as her that night, I felt like strangling her. How dare she? under my nose!

I got angrier when I recalled that my husband is going to give her all our resources and give me bread of sorrow instead which has already happened. But, thankGod for mummy and daddy Go. If they hadn’t looked into my future, I would probably be cooling off in the morgue by now. I shook my head.

Though, I have not blown things out of proportion because I still have the tiniest of doubts that my husband can try to poison me.

I immediately felt the urge to pray and shut down the spirit of doubt in me. Why must I let that tiny part of me doubt my parents in the lord

I went in and started cancelling every evil projection over my life.

I was in prayer when our bedroom door flew open and my husband walked in in one piece.

I was startled and confused at the same time. How did he get in? How come I didn’t hear him knock or even hear the honk of his car?

I rushed toward him.

“Baba Anu, what happened, where are you coming from?”

“There was a problem between my crew and some council boys on set and it landed us all in a police station”

“And you couldn’t call?”

“If I had a means do you seriously think I won’t? Our phones were seized”

“Oh dear! So how did you get in because I didn’t hear you honk”

“Eka was outside waiting for me. I espected you to be right where Eka was”

“That girl has no respect for me at all. I told her to go and sleep. I don’t even understand what this whole you and Eka thing is all about. I was here praying for you. Doing the spiritual work and….”

“And she was there doing the brain and physical work. That’s what any sane person would do in such situation”

“What do you mean by brain work?”

“While you were here disturbing God, Eka used her brain. She logged onto Instagram and checked my recent set post and the tags. That’s how she got through to one of my artist who explained everything to her and gave her a number to call. Luckily when she reached me, we were already on our way back. You see? Everything is not prayer Tolani, that’s why God gave you sense to think with”

“Don’t talk down on my prayers ooo. If I didn’t pray to the holy spirit for directions will Eka have come up with such idea?”

“This your confused holy spirit again? I wonder how it is that you pray to him for directions and he goes to direct another. Are you even still on social media?”

“God forbid. The things I used to do when I was in the world, I do them no more for light and darkness has no comparison. Social media is from the pit of hell and I won’t be caught dead partaking in it”

He looked at me disdainfully

“E Pele ooo deputy Jesus!” He went into the bathroom to take his bath.

Something stroke me. This man has never debunked the allegations of sleeping with Eka. He either laughs it off, or say something else. He has never defended it or tried to counter it as expected. Does it mean he’s admitting doing it indirectly? I thought to myself.

I related everything that happened to my daddy in the lord, he prayed for me and asked me to stop eating at home or make sure Eka leaves because they’d poison me one day. He assured me that he can see Eka and Bidemi making out on the couch.

I was shocked and broken.

I began to cry.

“Daddy please help me, I don’t want to lose my marriage”

“You married the wrong man. Your husband is evil. You don’t even know who you have been living with for 6years, just thank God for protecting you all these years”

I couldn’t believe it. Bidemi Temi, a man I called father… A man I called daddy… I man I fell in love with and married, trying to kill me because of Eka. How? I was in doubt. So, I needed closure, I needed a clue apart from the prophesies to ascertain how this could be.

I called Bidemi immediately.

“This one wey you call me today, has holy spirit said another one?” He said humorously.

“Lol… I’m on my way back. How is work going nau? I hope you’ve been able to resolve the issue with the council boys?”

“I’m just driving out of the house now and I’m heading straight to the station before I go to the location”

“What? Just heading out by 12:16pm? What were you doing at home?”

“After yesterday’s stress I was damn tired. I slept till 9 then I helped Eka with some cleaning. She’s working too hard these days. You know Anu is growing, so it’s nolonger as easy as it used to be. I even think we should increase her salary. Anyways, let’s discuss that when I get back. Greet Jesus for me ooo. Tell am say him boy dey loyal oo” He laughed.

I began to think.

Everything is playing out as prophesied before my eyes.

He’s planning to increase Eka’s salary which is a step into giving everything he owns to Eka.

He’s been home since morning. My husband that leaves house latest 8:30am. Kaaiii my father in the lord is just too much. With these proof, I nolonger doubt my Daddy in the lord.

All I need now is solution. What do I do? How do I get Eka out of the way? Well, I’d have to take the bull by the horns… Eka must leave my house today.

I got home and angrily threw the idiot out of my house.

I threw her rags at her and shut the gate behind her.

Anu was crying and begging me to spare Eka… But, I didn’t listen. When Eka left, Anu went into her room and started crying. All my pleading fell on deaf ear.

Well, Anu is the least of my problems right now. I need to go and pray for God to fight my battle and soften my husbands heart and deliver him from all spells casted on him by Eka. I prayed and spoke in tongues till evening. I then left for church.

I was expecting my husband’s call to enquire about Eka. But, the call didn’t come through. So, I assumed he wasn’t back yet or God has answered my prayers by softening his heart and clearing all the spells off his eyes

As I walked in by few minutes pass 9pm I saw his car parked and another car too. I recognized the car, it was Clara’s car.

I walked in to see Clara and my husband chatting in the sitting room. Bidemi had changed into his night wear. I wasn’t happy to see a sinner comfortably seated on my couch, drinking my wine and laughing.

As I stood there I observed these too candidates of hell.

Clara had her hair fixed with a deep curled weav-on, she had artificial lashes on, nails, make up and jewelries on.

Well, Clara has always dressed classy and sexy but she never goes naked. She’s always well covered but in the classiest and sexy manner.

What does it matter? She’s still going to hell with all these nonsense artificial she adorns herself with.

I hate her, I hate sinners.

I stepped forward to where they’d see me. My husband threw a casual ‘good evening’ to me.

Clara hurried up on her feet and gave me a tight hug.

I could perceive the fragrance of her hellish perform. It smell really expensive.

All these things are vanity!!! Hmmm, she’ll still burn up in hell, if she likes let her spray the best perfume that has ever been made.

“How are you… You look… Ehhmm… Tolani, is this you or is my eyes playing pranks on me?” She asked taking a thorough look at me.

Her hands on my body was irritating me. A sinner should not be touching me with her physically clean but spiritually filthy hands.

“No gurl…. What happened?”

“Christ happened. I got saved. Clara I met Christ”

I said to spite her and belittle her. But she didn’t buy it.

“No Tola… This isn’t how Christ leaves the people who meet him. He leaves them better, finner, fresher, happier, he leaves them glowing”

“What are you now staying?”

“Babes…”

“Don’t! Don’t call me that worldly nonsense” I cut her shut.

She smiled.

I expected her to be offended and feel insulted and get the heck outa my house. But I was surprised that she smiled

Clara has always been a very blunt girl. She says it the way it is. I remember how she told a woman that her makeup was scary the first time I met her, through my husband when we were still dating and she was just a year into her marriage then. We had gotten pretty close after our first meeting. I loved her classiness, sexiness, choice of words and sense of fashion and her fierce, blunt and confident attitude then, same reason why I hate her now.

“Okay. Sorry for calling you that. Tolani…”

“It’s Iya Anu to you” I said eyeing her. All in a bid to offend her. Yet again, she smiles

“Okay, Iya Anu, you look 60, you look malnourished, look at what you’re wearing. Look at the kind of big scarf on your head. Tola… I mean, Iya Anu, this isn’t Christ that you met, you met doctrine. What you met is a doctrine fixed by a man who I’m sure isn’t living up to it but will force gullible ones like you to live his doctrine”

“E dake! Kilemo? What do you know about true Christianity and being born again and baptized with the holy spirit?”

“I know alot my dear, morethan you think you know. Don’t let my looks confuse you. Don’t let those men on suit that calls themselves men of God deceive you. I am a repented child of God, I am a church worker, a staunch bible student and that’s how I know that you’re on the wrong track”

I ran my eyes all over her in disdain.

“Your kind of repentance is evident in your worldly appearance. It is your type that brings shame to the body of Christ. Why am I even wasting my time and energy on a sinner. When the bible said in the book of 2nd Corinthians 6vs 14 ‘do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship hath light and darkness?’ I eyed her and left.

“The bible said in the book of Ecclesiastes 10:10 ‘if the iron be blunt, and do not whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is profitable to direct’ she shouted towards my direction.

I would have been worried that she quoted a bible verse correctly because I wasn’t expecting her to know any verse. But I won’t worry, what she quoted is a very simple and popular verse. She cannot stand me in quoting the bible…

From my room I could hear her and my husband speaking faintly. Few minutes later, she left.

“Where’s Eka…?” Bidemi asked as he entered the room.

“Why are you asking me?”

“Anu said you guys fought”

“Well I sent her packing. She cannot be sleeping with my husband and be planning evil against me under my won roof. and if you look for her, I will leave this marriage for you and her”

He stared at me for a long time and left.

That wasn’t my expectation. I was expecting him to throw a fuss. But, these two sinners have disappointed me today. But I am not comfortable that he didn’t say anything about this Eka issue because I wouldn’t know what he thinks or plans.

Is this the answer to my prayers or there’s danger? I couldn’t phantom it through his expression.

I went in to pray and wait for his next action. I wish I knew what he plans to do next.
