Location; Lady Of Hope Hospital
Continuation from the last scene
 
Mrs. Ajah was shocked as her eyes fell on her long lost husband but she tried not to show it.
She turned her gazed to the doctor and pastor Eric.
“Good afternoon dear, you are finally awake,how are you doing?” The pretty fair doctor asked wearing a smile.
“I am fine doctor” Mrs. Ajah replied coldly
“Good,” The doctor used her stethoscope to check her heart beat.
“You are alright now, just need alot of rest, are you having any headache?”
“Yes,a slight one” Mrs. Ajah responded
“Ok,is nothing serious,I will ask the nurse to bring you some paracetamol ok, excuse me” The doctor said walking out on them.
“How are you Mrs. Raymond, sorry Mrs. Ajah?” Pastor Eric asked drawing near to her while Mr. Ajah slowly moved to the other side of the bed.
“I am fine pastor, please what happened to me? How did I come here?” Mrs. Ajah asked
“Oh well,we gave God the glory. Mr. Raymond attempted to kill you and he thought you were dead,so he took you along the road to dump your body there,but as God could have it,he was caught and arrested by some police men. He is currently behind bars at the police station” Pastor Eric explained.
“And where are my children? All of them?” She asked again
“They are currently at your husband’s house including the two kids you had for Mr. Raymond” pastor Eric spoke again
“Thank you pastor but please I don’t have any husband” Mrs. Ajah said
Pastor Eric looked at her,then to Mr. Ajah and shook his head.
“Honey, please forgive me” Mr. Ajah spoke for the first time since he entered the ward. He tried taking her hand but she scre-med at him.
“Take your filthy hands off me, you irresponsible unrepentant beast!”
Pastor Eric was shocked but he refused to say any word.
“Honey, please,I know that I have greatly sinned against God and you,and I am not worthy to be called your husband,but please find a place in your heart to forgive me. It was the work of the devil. Please,I am sorry for everything I did to you. Since you left,my life has never been the same, though I am now a rich man but is not the Same”
“Of course,it can’t be the Same. Have you forgotten that I am a witch? Have you forgotten that I was the one responsible for all your misfortunes? You see, since I left, you became a rich man.” Mrs. Ajah replied sarcastically.
“I am sorry honey” Mr. Ajah cried as the tears ran down his cheeks. “Though I am a rich man but I cannot find happiness. I can’t find peace. I missed you so much. The children, your children, our children,we all missed you. We are not happy. Please forgive me”
“Forgive you? Did you say Forgive you? Everything that I am going through today is because of you. Where did I go wrong? Samuel,what was my fault? Is it refusing to listen to my parents and running off with you? Is this selling all my wrappers and jewelries and giving you the money to play gamble? Is it bearing beautiful children for you? Is it choosing to love you and not giving my body to another man? Where exactly did I go wrong? Is because of you,I met that heartless beast! Samuel,is because of you,I am in this condition! Just go! I said leave me alone!” She cried
“Honey please. I have never been a better and faithful husband to you but I promise to do everything I never did.” Mr. Ajah said.
“Oh really? Samuel, the only thing you never did was to kill me but you abused me, insulted, humiliated, disgraced,beat and trampled on. You should have just kill me”
“Mrs. Ajah, please calm down” pastor Eric spoke. “I know how you feel but you can’t continue to keep this in,side you forever. We all have made mistakes and God is ever ready to forgive us,so we should also try to forgive others. Your husband might have done the worst deeds ever to you but he is sorry. Please forgive him as Christ did for you. We both were contacted since your incident,and for five days that you have been in comma,he has refused to leave your side. He cried and blamed himself for everything and sworn to take his life if anything happens to you. Please I beg you in God’s name, forgive him, accept him back and start over with him”
Mrs. Ajah raised her voice and wept louder as Mr. Ajah drew closer to her. They both engaged in a hug as they continuously cried on each other.
*********
Location: The church’s auditorium
It was on Wednesday,the mid week service.
The church was less crowded but still contain a medium amount of people.
Brother James has travelled to South Africa in fulfillment of the archbishop promise to him.
Angela is in the hospital fighting for her life.
Mrs. Ajah is yet to be discharged from the hospital though she and her husband has reconnected.
Rose sat on the first row facing the altar while others members were sitting too.
Pastor Eric is on the pulpit preaching.
He doesn’t look happy but try not to show it as he preached the sermon though his mind was far away from the church.
Something isn’t just right but he can’t placed his hands on it.
Few minutes later,half through the service,a shadow appeared by the doorway leading into the church. The chairs were arranged in way that members backs were turned towards the door,which makes it impossible to see someone walks in.
Pastor Eric head was bent on the Bible as he was focusing on the scriptures he was reading so he didn’t see the person walked in.
The shadow became clearer as the person drew near the altar and it turned out to be Steve.
At that moment, pastor Eric raised his head from the Bible and upon seeing Steve in church,his heart skipped a beat.
Steve gave him a mean stare and took a seat on the first row near Rose.
“My God! What is he doing here?” Pastor Eric asked himself in fear.
He tried to focus on what he was saying to avoid suspicious among the congregation but he couldn’t as he kept repeating and stammering.
The curious congregation began to throw questions among themselves asking what’s the issue was.
In an twinkling of an eye, Steve quickly got up, brought a few photos out from his pocket and began to share among the people beginning from Rose.
“Jesus Christ!”
“Holy Moses!!”
“Blood of Jesus!!!”
“Unbelievable!!!”
People scre-med,cried and got up in the unimaginable shock ever as the photos keep circulating from one person to another.
This was the worst thing ever a human eyes could see.
Steve angrily threw a photo at pastor Eric and it fell in front of his feet.
He bent slowly and couldn’t get back up as his eyes saw the unimaginable.
There he was in boxers with Steve on the bed as they k-ssed deeply!
His legs could no longer carried him as they trembled.
He sat on the floor and bowed his head in shame.
“Calm down people” Steve spoke
“This man is g-y as you can clearly see. I am a young student,I came to him for help in order to pay my school fees but he offered to have s€× with me first and then take care of me.
I agreed cos I was badly in need and then we started a relationsh¡p.
He used and destroyed me and refused to treat me. So as you can see, there’s no perfect man before God”
“So you are g-y!” Rose scre-med at him as the words the archbishop told her continue to make sense now.
The members scre-med as they began to leave the church one after the one.
“I told you Eric,is either you give me the money or we go down together” Steve said walking out on him.
Pastor Eric shamefully got up and walked out of the church.
As he stepped out,he met few members standing outside murmuring about the surprise they just saw.
He shamefully walked pass them as they hissed, insulted and rained curses on him.

There’s no one righteous
Yes not even one in this world.
This story wasn’t written to mock any church or man of God but to create a heart of repentance in us.
All those we see that behave like they are some Angels and when we see them,we condemned ourselves,do you know what they are hiding?
Before you try to copy someone
Ask yourself,is their life worth following.
Be yourself and be the genuine you.
You are a limited edition
No one is like you.
Thanks for reading friends.
Chichi loves you always
