JUST A LITTLE SIN
Episode 42
By AMAH’S HEART

I can hear mumbling voices, I wondered who John was talking to
Isn’t it too early for him to be up, and who is he having in our room? I wondered to myself
John has occu-pied my thought must part of my sleep, I guess is because he’s my roommate, the only one I’m close to.

I wish he can stop talking loudly with his visitor so that I can sleep.

I said something to him, I asked him to stop with the noise because I’m struggling to sleep but my words didn’t even make sense to my ears when I said it out.
It was as if I was whimpering like a wounded goat.
I felt pain, serious pain all over.
My head felt heavier than it should.
I try to move my legs but it was stiffened
My body didn’t feel like mine anymore.
I was struggling to open my eyes but there was still a lot of darkness.

What have John done to me? Did he place bags of cement or heavy wood on me as I slept off last night.
Why am I feeling this way?

I try to call John to help me but no noise came out.
“Tomasi, you’re so de@d” I heard his voice
John does not know when to play
What’s the meaning of this

“..Madam want you to come and ma-ssage her body..” John said again and began to laugh with a husky scary voice

“No..no. I can’t, tell her that I can’t.. please..” I try to plead but only a rumbling noise filled my ears.

“… she’s is coming to get you Tomasi, look at her approaching the door. You’re d0omed, you’re so d0omed ”

This time I looked up and saw Madam, I managed to escape as my legs can Carry me.

As I was running towards the gate, I heard several voices running after me.
Zee, was next to me asking me to stop running.
She said she will like to teach me how to prepare coraba de capy.
She almost caught me but I was fast enough
John asked me something about Madam’s money. I was running and didn’t pay much attention to him.

Madam called out to me for a body ma-ssage.
I wondered why everyone was after me.
I heard John said again like a whisper to my ear “you’re do0med Tomasi..”

Zee kept calling me to wait so that we can make de capy
I ignored and ran off, I ran into Chumi right outside the gate.
She was laughing, she was seriously laughing hard with a fang in place of teeth.
Those were very scary.
I was still wondering what she was doing outside the gate, how did she get to my work address?
She pushed me hard and I fell, I try to get up but couldn’t.
Something was pining me down
Chumi brought out a knife and came at me for-cefully, she stab me but the knife missed.
“You want to exp-ose me, you think you’re smart right? I got you now..let me see how you will escape from me..” she said as she raised the kπife high to st@b me.

She st@bbed severally again but kept missing.
She groa-ned angrily as she missed again.

I couldn’t still get up as I began to crawl away like a child who can’t walk.
She was coming after me, I kept crawling but I realized that the more I applied speed to get away from her, the slower I become
I was trying to move but wasn’t even moving at all as she kept laughing

A gh0stly wind blew around me, I felt serious chilled and became weak.
The cold was freezing me up.

“Hey Tomasi, my love. Are you cold? take this and cover up..”
I looked up and saw Oni, she looks tattered, her dressing was that of rag, worn out and thorn in different parts.
her face had different w0und marks, her hands where half skel€ton and half human.
She was offering me a leaf cloth

“Go away from me, you’re d€ad. Please leave me alone.
I said while trying to get away but she was everywhere
In front, back and beside me.

“Take it my love, I want us to be one family, I love you and want us to get married. Will you marry me?

“No, get away from me Oni, you’re d€ad. I can’t marry you… leave me alone please, please I’m tired, I don’t want to d!e. Go back to the dead and let me be.

She began to laugh and it was more scarier than that of Chumi who wanted to att@ck me before but I can’t see her anywhere again

“I want to help you Tom, you’re the love of my life and no one can break us apart. We’re meant to be together, you’re mine and I’m yours. My whole love is yours and yours is mine. I want you to lay with me, get me with a child so that we can have a little one. Make out with me my love..is been a little while you cuddled me up, you don’t like cuddling me, you’re breaking my heart, you’re hurting me, you’re not loving me enough…”

She began to cry but instead of tears there where blood.

“Oni, I’m sorry. I love you, but you’re dead now. We can’t make out, lay together like husband and wife or even have a family…”

“Why? Why will you say a thing like that? We can and we must or I will take this kn!fe and k!ll you and also k!ll myself. We’re meant to be together and nothing should come between us my love. You’re mine and does not belong to another. You’re mine, mine alone. No one should come between our love or I will k!ll the person..” she screamed and her voice thun-dered into my ear drum causing me to shake all over
I began to shake as she raise the kn!fe up and approached.
“Please don’t k!ll me I pleaded as I try to get up and get away from her but I was stuck.
Something was holding me to the ground.
“..Oni, please don’t hürt me, don’t k!ll me Oni. I’m sorry for everything, I regret my actions everyday ever since you’re gone. I wish I can save you from dying, I wish we are happily married and living as loving couple. I wish nothing was powerful enough to separate us. Forgive me Oni, don’t k!ll me, I need to be alive to take care of onmi, the daughter you left behind for me. She’s in Mama’s care. Do you remember how much you love Mama? If I d!e, Mama will be devastated, and Onmi will grow up without a father figure. I never told anyone of the secret you confined in me. The real father of Onmi, my li-ps have never spoken of it. I promised you that I won’t and I never did. You entrusted her to me and asked me to be a father to her and I’m trying all I could to be the best dad. If I d!e, if you don’t stop tormênting me, I won’t be able to do all of that. Please Oni, forgive me I beg thee, be kind to me just like I have been kind to Onmi. Stop tormënting me… don’t k!ll me.. please..”

I pleaded with my two palms together in a pleading fashion.

“I have been lonely too long, you’re my companion and my love for you is stronger than before. We’ve to live together as one. You’re all I want and if you oppose again I will k!ll you and k!ll myself. Take my hands let’s go to my room now..”

“No..no, I can’t..”

She came at me with the knife, I crawled up into myself and kept screaming.

“Tom..Tom.. what is the problem..” a gentle tap and a sweet and calm voice made me look up

“Omie..” I shouted, i suddenly rose, ran to her and held her like a frightened child.

“Is all going to be alright, don’t be frightened. Jesus loves you, he paid in full at the cross so that you will no longer be tormènted. He d!ed so that the power of de@th will be defeated in your life. Jesus is the answer, those who trust in him will have everlasting life and won’t be put to shame..” Omie said.

I loosened from my ti-ght grip on her.
She was really beautiful, she is just like Oni facially but totally different every other parts of her being.

Suddenly, a bad wind blew into my ears. It came with a whisper and it was Onis voice whispering into my ears
“I’m still here, you’re wanting another woman, I will end you. I will k!ll you and k!ll myself. I’m your only lover… you’re mine..” the voice was echoing de-eperly into my ears

“Please take me along with you, I’m scared. Oni is here is and she wants to k!ll me. I don’t want to d!e, she is here right now, she can see us… she will st@b me to de@th if I don’t do her bidding. Take me away, I will follow you..” I cried out to Omie.

“I may not know who is Oni but I’m very certain that you’re not dying, not today or any other day. Your burden is lifted off, your heart is mended and tears are wiped away. God has come through for you Tom, you will be totally liberated if you accept him as your Lord and savior..? Omie said

“Accept who? Who are you talking about? I queried

“Jesus, the son of the living God, who became man and live among us, he was unjustly arrested by those who h@ted him, he neither argue nor vent out in anger. He was k!lled by the same people he came to save yet even the gr@ve couldn’t stop him or his glory. He rose again triumphantly, defeating de@th, powers of darknëss, sicknëssês and disēasës, të®rors of this present world. He defeated all so that you will be free from them, none of those things have any power to to®ment you because you’re born of Christ, you’ve overcome them. God, who is a compa-ssionate father, saw how much we needed salvation and he sent his only begotten son to subdue all the tribul@tions in this world so that you can walk in freedom without fêar knowing who goes before you and stand behind you. God watches us always and he cares de-eperly about you even when you are yet to know him. Taste and see that the Lord is good, the Lord is a deliverer and redeemer, our saviour. He’s ready to deliver you if you will believe and trust him. So Tomasi, do you believe?

“I don’t know how, what do I have to do? I want to believe… please, show me how to believe..” I said still looking around if Oni was hiding anywhere.
I held her hand as she lead me.

“Follow me, let me show you the way..” she finally said

I followed her

Something cold and w-et suddenly splashed on my face.
I blinked severally before trying to open my eyes.
My eyes were very heavy, I can’t move my limb
My body felt numb and my head bang heavily.
People where hovering over me

Somebody threw water on me, followed by more water.
I wanted to get up and fight whoever was doing that, why are they throwing water at me like a vegetable
Can’t they see me, do I look like a leaf in their eyes?
I looked around me and saw I was lying among the bushes.
“What am I doing?
“..why am I here..?
I have been dreaming all this while.

“He’s alive, he’s not dead like you presumed. He’s alive..” somebody said to another

“Hey, young man can you hear me… who are you? Can you remember anything? Some people dumped your body here last night…” A man in his late forties said calmly as he bent over to lift me up from the ground with the help of another

They were three men and two women bending over to watch me like a hawk
