    đŸ‘« In Love With A Church Girl Episode Four:

    But later realized when she told me she is doing a well paid job too
    Well interesting I said. In my mind I was thinking of other ways to get to her heart rather than money as the sharp guy that I am na
    And so we got into conversation and she officially invited me to their church the next Sunday, at first I said no as I couldn’t imagined myself in the church again but then I wouldn’t want to lose this fine wine without having a test so I later agreed

    Sunday morning came she was the one who woke me up I reluctantly dressed up enter my car and zoom off to church. I was a bit late, before I got there they started the service
    The ushers Walked me into the church and I was welcome by the voice of a lady singing worship song, in my mind I was like who is this angel with such voice only for me to look and see my Linda vibrating on the alter bringing down God’s glory
    The worship got intense and people were crying rolling on the floor I didn’t know what was happening as I haven’t seen such before.

    Not quite long I began to sense this heavy atmosphere, tears starter dropping from my eyes, I didn’t know when I got on my knees all I could remember saying was Lord have mercy on me for I don’t deserve to be in your presence. I remembered all my rough life it was as if I watched them on the screen and I cried out loud for Mercy

    After the worship I remain on the floor for 30 minutes before I got myself I didn’t just know why my tears couldn’t stop flowing, as soon as they called for alter call I was the first to go out
    But then I kept on wondering in my mind what was happening to me what has Linda done to me
    After the service I went back home not knowing what to think, a part of me regret going to Linda’s church but a part of me was happy

    I was stock in-between thought of what really happened to me
    Then I called Linda to asked what really happened and she said that the HOLY SPIRIT arrested me. Arrested me? Why? What does he want from me and.

    đŸ§‘â€đŸ’Œ The Man I Married Episode Five: 💞

    I summoned courage to return back to Calabar to pick up my job after much persuasion from my parents and friends. This marked a new phase of my life with a different environment and new friends. Janet returned back to Lagos after her service, while I came back to Calabar like Adam in the world without any friend. The spillover trauma from losing Preye did not allow me concentrate on my job but thanks to my supervisor, Mr Alfred who was very understanding. He came around to encourage me anytime I got depressed, to move on with my life and face reality.

    He took me out for lunch one saturday and made my day and I was able to forget Preye for at least the period we were together with. How about coming to pick you up for service tomorrow? He asked me. That would be nice sir, I subscribed to his suggestion. I know you are thinking he’s interested in me right? No, far from that. Mr Alfred is a married man – a deacon in his church. He loves his family dearly and he has invited me to his home on two occasions to meet his family and have dinner with them.

    Their church was nice and service was short but powerful. Mr Alfred introduced me to their pastor after the service in his office. I love your message sir,I said, I complemented the pastor’s sermon after we exchanged greetings. Bro Alfred told me some of the things you’ve been through but if you can trust God, he will make your story like the case of Ruth. Your Chilion maybe have gone, he’s surely preparing your Boaz, the pastor encouraged me and my soul was lifted.

    I started attending House On The Rock Church (HOTR) there in Marian road,together with Mr Alfred and his family. My commitment in church was noticed by everyone in the church including the pastor. Why would I miss church when I have no friend except Mr Alfred and his family, neither do I have anywhere to go to. In two months I didn’t miss any of the service even when Mr Alfred couldn’t pick me up I find my way to the church on my own.

    After the mid week service on Wednesday, Bro David walked up to me, ‘hello Sis Sobiefaa, I am Bro David in

.’ ‘
    I know you already.’ I cut in. ‘Who will not know the prayer leader of this church?’ ‘The Lord bless you my sister. I have been moved by the Holy Ghost to have a word with you if you don’t mind?’ He said while he speaking in tongues intermittently. ‘Go ahead sir, I am listening,’ I turned my right ear towards his direction.

    Before he could say anything he quoted about six scriptures to prepare for his statement. We just finished a Bible study, this was another Bible study with Bro David. I was patient because I already know where he was going. I like Bro David for his spirituality but I doubt if I will like to marry him for that. He is over-spiritual for my liking. That evening he did all his spiritual gimicks, shared a lot of revelations and spiritual insight but he never said anything about love or relationship. I doubt if he will be able to toast a woman because he is too hyper-spiritual to say “I love you” to a woman.

    For three weeks, anytime he sees me it’s either a Bible study or a prayer meeting until I started getting pissed off. This was one reason I will not accept his proposal. I know if I marry him my spiritual security is guaranteed but that’s not enough for a successful marriage. I need a man who will be my friend and playmate and not this spirit being.

    After Sunday service, our pastor sent a note to me through the chief usher about his intention to have a word with me in his office. I quickly rushed to pastor’s office after I read the note. Knock! Knock!! Is that Sis Sobiefaa? The pastor asked, yes sir, I responded. Come in, when I opened the curtain of pastor’s office I met Bro David already seated in front of the pastor. If not for the respect I have for the pastor I would have turned back immediately. So he can’t talk to me himself, he has to involve the pastor? I thought. I took my seat as I pretended as if he was not there. ‘You are welcome Sis Sobiefaa, the pastor greeted. ‘I am sure you know Bro David,’ as he pointed towards his direction. ‘Yes sir I do’, I responded. ‘Will you like to marry him?’ The pastor asked me frankly, but I was dumbfounded for a minute

    (Holy Sinners)

    “What, I can’t do that, what kind of dare is that?” Henry asked.

    “You will have to do it or take the shot” Hailey said.

    Summer grinned from where she was standing.

    Summer winked at Hailey secretly.

    “Do it twin bro” Hilliary said but Henry spared him a dangerous glare.

    “What are you waiting for? take the shot or kiss her for three minutes” Recce said.

    Henry eyes darted to the bitter drink on the table, to be sincere he can’t bring himself drinking that bitter thing and at the same time he can’t kiss Summer.

    He ran his hands through his hair and walked to Summer.

    Tiffany started feeling sweaty as Henry got closer to her, her heart pounding like a pestle in a mortar.

    Austin folded his fist wishing to just give Henry a punch on his face.

    Henry bent and went for Summer’s lips, he was about kissing her when he stopped.

    Tiffany took her eyes away, Hailey noticed her reaction but she didn’t give in much about that.

    Henry smiled crookedly.

    “Do you think I will possibly kiss this rotten lips of yours, I will rather kiss a zombie” Henry said and pulled away.

    ” Should I kiss her on your behalf?” Hilliary asked and came over.

    ” Since you’re looking for someone to kiss you badly let me help you” Hilliary said and kissed her unexpectedly.

    Summer eyes widened.

    đŸ‘„ OMG he is crazy

    đŸ‘„ He kissed her

    đŸ‘„ He is a real pyscho

    Lex and Blake started laughing, almost everyone.

    Austin felt his hand getting sweaty as he glared at Hilliary dangerously.

    “Savagious statement ever” Hilliary said, laughing.

    Summer eyes kept looking at Hilliary.

    Henry took the bottle and gulped it down.

    “Shit” He said after drinking it.

    He smirked at her and went back to his seat.

    Tiffany felt her heart calming down.

    “Let’s continue” Lex said.

    Henry spun the bottle and it pointed at Austin”

    ” T”

    ” Why did you chose to be stupid?” Henry asked.

    đŸ‘„Gawd!!!

    đŸ‘„ Henry you’re bad

    ” I won’t stand here and let you insult me, you will regret it” Austin said and walked out.

    Summer also walked out.

    “Those two are the same, but she got the ass tho” Hilliary said and Henry hit his head.

    “Let’s continue the game”.

    ONE HOUR LATER

    Many of the students are drunk already, they are busy talking gibberish.

    Henry and Hilliary are somewhere drinking, it’s like those two are twins, cos they so tolerant to alcohol.

    Lex and Blake left already since they started feeling tipsy after having some couples of beers.

    “I can’t believe those two got drunk just by drinking some bottles” Hilliary said drinking directly from the beer.

    “They are not up to the drinking task” Henry said and stood.

    “Where are you going?” Hilliary asked.

    “I want to use the restroom” Henry replied and left.

    Immediately Henry two girls walked up to Hilliary.

    “Hi can we sit here with you?” They asked

    “Who am I to say no?” He replied, looking at their visible b**bs.

    RESTROOM

    Henry finished using the restroom, he buckled his belt and walked out, he began walking back to the pool side when he suddenly heard someone shouting from the next door.

    “Help, help” The female voice cried louder.

    He turned back and walked to the door, he kicked it and entered.

    Immediately he stepped in he slipped and fell on his face.

    He heard a voice laughed.

    He looked up and saw Austin with ten boys holding batons.

    He got what really happened, he was tricked.

    He tried standing but fell back, the portion of the floor he was, was slippery with a slippery liquid.

    “You can’t stand up there, I told you, you will regret messing up with Austin” Austin smiled.

    “Are there others behind or this is the guys you came with?” Henry asked.

    Austin laughed out loud.

    ” You will regret it soon.

    “Guys teach him a lesson” Austin said and sat on a nearby chair crossing his legs.

    Henry quickly rolled on the floor to the other side which was void of the slippery liquid.

    The ten guys surrounded him in a circle with their batons in hand.

    “Lord of Roman reigns descend on me” Henry said and quickly turned his elbow hitting one of the guys behind him.

    The guy fell and he quickly took the baton from him.

    “Babies come to daddy” He said and the guys attacked him.

    The two guys that first came at him were so unlucky, he hit the baton on their d*cks.

    “Oh no!!” They cried felling on their knees, he kicked their faces and they fell on their backs.

    A guy came at him from behind but he quickly raised his leg in an acrobatic move hitting the guy on the face, the force of the kick drove the guy to the wall, he hit his head on the wall and passed out.

    The door opened and Hilliary came in, when he saw the scene, he used his two legs and kicked Austin who was sitting on the chair.

    Hilliary got worried when Henry was taking long to come back, he stood up and followed the direction he took, immediately he got there, he heard noises in the next door like people fighting, his instincts triggered him and he went there.

    Austin together with the chair fell to the floor.

    Six guys were already on the floor whining in pains.

    Two guys rushed at Hilliary but he raised his legs hitting them at the same time, he fell back on his hands and started delivering hunch punches at their faces, in no time they were bleeding badly.

    Henry was beating the other two with the batons, hitting it anywhere it landed on their bodies.

    Austin finally stood and his eyes widened when he saw the state Hilliary and Henry put the boys in.

    “Don’t be too shock” Hilliary said.

    The ten guys were so weak to even moved their bodies.

    “The mistake you did was sending guys to beat my twin bro”.

    “And next time send battalion of Chinese fighters, these guys are to weak” Henry said.

    Hilliary delivered a punch at Austin face and before he will react another punch came from Henry.

    They took turns in punching his face, bruises soon rented Austin face as their apartment.

    “Next time you won’t mess up with the H twins” Hilliary said.

    “H twins, I like that name twin bro, let adopt it, wait you can fight well so why did those guys beat you up that day” Henry said and Hilliary smiled.

    ” Maybe it was destined for you to meet me that day cos I couldn’t believe they overpowered me” Hilliary replied.

    They smiled at each other.

    They left the room and went to their cars.

    “Twin bro” Henry said and Hilliary turned.

    “Thank you”.

    Hilliary hugged him before entering his car.

    The both drove out.

    NEXT DAY – HAILEY’S HOUSE

    Some guys can be seen tidying up the house, Hailey hired them to do the job.

    Austin and his boys were rushed to the hospital after the thorough beating the twins from different mothers delivered to them.

    The students all left already.

    Hailey walked to her room with a cup of coffee in hand.

    Summer slept over and she was just waking up.

    “Baby” Hailey said and placed the cup beside her.

    “Good morning” Summer said rubbing her eyes.

    “Where is Tiffany?”.

    “She left yesterday” Hailey said and sat down on the bed.

    “I’m sensing something, since Henry started schooling in our school, Tiffany attitude is getting kinda weird, she no longer contributed to anything concerning him, she was the ringleader of ideas” Hailey said.

    “Why am I noticing it now?, our plan failed”.

    “She looks at him differently, could she be in love with him?” Hailey asked.

    “That can’t happen, I want to get back at him by dating him and dumping him, but I guess he is hard nut to crack”.

    ” Are you giving up already?” Hailey asked.

    ” What should I do?, let’s go back to our normal bullying style and about the new guy, I can’t believe he kissed me” Summer said.

    ” What are you planning?” Hailey smirked.

    Summer grinned and took the cup of coffee gulping it down.

    KITCHEN MANSION**

    “Henry what happened to your lips?” Joyce asked.

    “I fell mum” .

    ” You can’t lie to me Henry, you fought in that party, what did I say about you avoiding fights, you even promised me to stay out of trouble” Joyce said and grabbed his left ear.

    “Ouch!! mum, they started it, the bible said we should run from temptation but what if temptation directly comes to you? you can’t run mum” Henry said.

    “Stop misquoting the bible, today is Sunday” Joyce said adding pressure to his ear.

    “Mum, I am going to church today, I need to get ready I don’t wanna be late”.

    “Henry is going to church” Thomas clapped as he came downstairs.

    “Why did you repent?” Thomas asked.

    “The lord spoke to me yesterday” Henry said.

    “It’s all an act to escape punishment, he fought yesterday” Joyce said.

    Henry started ticking her and she had no option but to released him.

    Henry quickly ran to his room.

    Joyce faced Thomas with a glare.

    “What?”.

    “The only difference between him and you is that he isn’t a playboy, why did I even marry you? I hate you Thomas” Joyce shouted.

    Henry came downstairs with a Bible.

    Joyce and Thomas looked at him then bursted into laughter.

    “May the lord forgive you, children of the world” He said and left.

    A CHURCH

    Hilliary and Henry cars stopped at the church.

    They came down and began walking to the church entrance but Henry quickly stop and frowned at Hilliary.

    ” What’s it twin bro?” Hilliary asked.

    ” Idiot remove those earrings, don’t you know this is a church” Henry replied.

    Hilliary smiled and gave his Bible to Henry, he then took off his earrings, he pocketed it.

    ” And remember, we have to pray to the Lord for fighting yesterday and for drinking alcohol, you even spanked some girls asses” Henry said.

    ” Let’s go” Hilliary said and they entered the church.

    Henry and Hilliary occupied the third seats on the fifth row.

    It’s a prayer session, someone was on the altar leading the prayer.

    “Remember the prayer points I gave you” Henry whispered to Hlliary.

    He nodded.

    The prayer session ended and the choirs took over.

    Everyone stood up including Henry and Hilliary.

    The drummer and the pianist started making the beat for praises.

    Soon songs filled the church as everybody sing.

    “What are they doing, everything is dull?” Hilliary asked.

    ” I’m not feeling it either the pianist is doing his thing differently while the drummer is going his own way same with the guitarist” Henry said.

    ” Can you play any instrument?”.

    ” Yes the piano” Henry replied.

    Hilliary raised up his hand in the church.

    ” What are you doing?” Henry asked.

    ” Trying to save God from embarrassment” Hilliary said and shouted.

    Everybody turned to him, the choirs and the instrumentalists stop.

    Everybody started looking at him like a demented person.

    ” What have you cause?” Henry said holding his head.

    ” It’s time to worship the lord but rather we are making the lord angry, I’m sorry to pause the praises but I think we should go on something different” Hilliary said and dragged Henry to the altar.

    ” He will take over from the pianist and I will join the choir” Hilliary said.

    They kept staring at them.

    Henry began playing the piano, the sound coming from it now was different, the other instrumentalists joined.

    Hilliary took the microphone and started a song.

    đŸŽ¶ Yahweh, your name is Yahweh

    đŸŽ¶ You’re the miracle working God

    đŸŽ¶ Your name is Yahweh

    The way his voice was sounding started making everyone happy, the church soon joined in the praises.

    Henry playing the piano while Hilliary sings.

    Looking at Hilliary while he sing will make you think he is someone responsible and holy. He look so calm and innocent.

    They began giving a thrilling performance.

    MONDAY ≈ BLAKE’S PLACE**

    “Son, come and see this ” Mrs Baldwin called out to Blake.

    “I am coming mum” Blake replied.

    When he got to his mother, she gave him the phone.

    Blake eyes widened as he saw Henry and Hilliary leading praises in a church.

    “What!!”

    “Look at Hilliary behaving like a responsible person that guy is a pervert, Henry” He laughed as the two guys were so serious.

    “I can’t believe this” Mrs Baldwin joined him in the laughter.

    “Those two should have been twins for real, good bye mum” Blake kissed her cheek before leaving.

    “Ion know” He shrugged

    They began walking to the class when Lex and Blake cars entered the park.

    The two came out and started laughing.

    “Why are you guys laughing, what is happening?”.

    “You don’t know” Lex replied.

    “Know what?” Hilliary asked.

    “The madness you two displayed at a church” Blake said and showed them the video.

    Unknown to them that what happened in the church was recorded and the video is trending with lot of reactions and comments.

    Henry and Hilliary began laughing.

    “So you two repented?” Blake asked.

    “Holy sinners” Lex said.

    “Kinda we went to confess our sins to the lord” Henry replied

    “Let’s go to the principal office” Henry said and left with Hilliary.

    They got to the principal’s office and entered.

    “Good morning ma’am” Henry said.

    “Henry” Mrs Barrett replied.

    “Good morning” Hilliary replied.

    “A new student right? Damola A. Hilliary?” Mrs Barrett asked.

    “Yes ma’am” Hilliary replied.

    “You’re welcome to this school, be a good student, stay out of trouble, will you?”.

    “Yes ma’am, I will be a good student and I will stay out of trouble” Hilliary said.

    Mrs Barrett smiled and took his locker key alongside the school rules and regulations, she handed it over to him.

    Hilliary collected the items.

    ” I didn’t know we have a cute woman as a principal” Hilliary said.

    ” She is the most cutest woman on earth” Henry said.

    Mrs Barrett stared at them, she thought it was only Henry but this one is not different.

    “You two can go” Mrs Barrett said, smiling.

    Hilliary went closer to her and pecked her cheek.

    Mrs Barrett gasped with her eyes widened.

    The minister was ready to preach to the people, he started talking on some reason why Young couples are having problems in their marriage that lead to divorce, why young couples cheat on each other…. Why many families fell into temptation that have ruined their lives…..

    The minister was preaching in spirit but half of the church were getting annoyed with him because of the video they saw…
    Suddenly when he said, ” self control is not something that will just happened to us, it’s something we practice again and again until it becomes part of our lives”. A young woman from the choirs stood up while the church was still going on and asked the minister, ” since he knew that why is he still romancing other people’s wife in his office?”. (She is a sister to the husband of the woman in the video)

    On saying that the church was shocked and those who already knew about the video start telling other’s that it is true, the minister have no shame at all….

    The minister try to say something but some women distracted him by saying, “they don’t want an adulterer as a minister, he has nothing to preach to them but lies” .

    At that moment they uploaded the video on social media everyone in the church saw it and they called the minister for discipline….
    He was later dismissed from his duties as a minister and his wife force for a divorce. His own children will not believe him because the world saw him as a minister who goes around with people’s wives.

    He moved and left the town and went far away somewhere else and continue with his minister.
    This is his first words to the church, “a minister is not a judge who looks at people and pass judgement on them, a minister is not a fashion designer who direct people or tell people how to dress.

    A minister is a messeger, a preacher who has the primary responsibility of saving people from the kingdom of darkness leading them into the knowledge of knowing God..

    🧛 Impregnate Me Or I Die Episode Four: 💚

    My husband practically dragged me to the hospital. He made all the complaints to the doctor as I was economical with information about my health so as to avoid any treatment that will jeopardize my chances of conceiving that month.
    Immediately the doctor asked me to lie on the patient stretcher so he could observe me. He did I quick scan on my abdomen, ‘madam you may
    stand up.’ He said after the scan. My eyes were fixed on his l-ips, anxious to hear his diagnosis.

    ‘Sir, madam is having an infection and that is the cause of the pain, I will place her on medication for two weeks. I will also treat you so you won’t pass it to her again through s€×ual intercourse.

    Does it mean I am not pregnant? I asked myself and unknown to me my silent question was loud enough that the doctor heard it. ‘No madam, you are not pregnant. Even if you were pregnant I would prefer we take care of this infection first.’ At that moment I hated my husband for bringing me to hear this bad news, I hated the doctor too for giving me this bad news. For the period we spent with the doctor I was quiet all through. in,side the car while going home I didn’t say a word to my husband neither did I reply any of his conversations.

    We got home and my husband gave me the dose for that night. ‘I won’t take these drugs because I know I don’t have any infection. Even if I have an infection, my God will heal me.’ I told my husband.

    My husband was not happy about my attitude and I could see anger all over his face. The drugs were too powerful for an expectant mother and I didn’t wish to take such medication at the moment . It will suspend my plans of getting
    pregnant for two months. If I take the drugs now, it will flush out my pregnancy and will not allow
    me observe my ovulation time for the next month. I refused to take the drugs but kept praying to God for this month’s pregnancy to
    stay. I started vomiting some days later. I quickly rushed to the calendar to calculate the days I
    missed my period, it was the 29th day after the last circle. I quickly put a call through to Sally, ‘I think I am pregnant’, I told her on phone. ‘Have you gone for a test?’ she asked me. ‘I have been vomiting for two days now and I haven’t seen my menses for 29 days, do I need
    any test to know I am pregnant?’
    ‘Missing your menses for 29 days and vomiting are not enough to conclude you are pregnant.

    Dear friend, please go for pregnancy test tomorrow. I know it will surely be positive,
    congratulations in advance.’ she said. I couldn’t explain what I felt because of what Sally said and the congratulation greeting. My fear with going for pregnancy test is the fact that I will not be able to withstand “madam you
    are not pregnant” or “madam the test is negative”. I decided I won’t go to the hospital
    for a test until I see more signs of pregnancy. My husband and I had not been friendly terms
    because of my refusal to take the drugs prescribed for the treatment of the infection. I
    knew I was still in control of his heart because of the love he had for me, so I wasn’t afraid. More
    so, I know telling him that I was pregnant will change his attitude, all I needed was just to be sure I was pregnant.

    I waited on till the 36th day before I told my husband I was ready for a pregnancy test. He
    smiled and said ‘pregnancy test you will have.’ He quickly dressed up and we drove to the hospital. This time I was more optimistic
    because I had seen almost all the pregnancy signs I have heard of in my life. My blood sample
    was taken, ‘you may wait at the
    reception,’the lab lady announced to us. But this was not the method last time, I sat with the man
    while he did the test. Why is this lady asking us to go out first for a test that’s less than fifteen minutes? We obeyed and went to sit at the reception. Fifteen minutes later she called out my
    name to come for my result. My husband asked me to sit down while he went for the result but I
    pretended as if I didn’t hear him, so I followed him right behind. As soon as I saw the lady handing over a brown envelope to my husband I started feeling dizzy.

    Before my husband could
    collect the envelope I was down on the floor. All that happened thereafter was explained to me when I regained my consciousness.

    My infection had gone bad at this time, with whitish and creamy fluid coming out of my private. I knew I had no option this time other than to submit myself for treatment. The drugs were intimidating and horrible but I didn’t have any other choice than to complete the dose. I took the drugs in pain and bitterness. After two weeks I was asked to go for scanning to know the level of my responsiveness to treatment. The doctor wasn’t satisfied with my condition so he placed me on another two weeks heavy treatment. Those times were close to hell for me. One wh0le month of swallowing pills and heavy antibiotics.

    I became jealous of Sally as her pregnancy advanced by the day while I was battling with an
    infection. Three months later nothing happened, all my attempts to get pregnant never materialized. I became tired of life and wish I could just die. My inability to conceive turned into a nightmare. My husband had grown leaned for too much of s€× yet I was not pregnant for once. I
    made a lot of research on Google and other fertility websites all to no avail. I forced my
    husband to see a specialist on my inability to conceive but I was advised to calm down and that I had no need to worry until after one year.

    One year looked like ten years. I can’t wait for one year, I told myself. I must be pregnant next month by all means.

    My phone rang while I was in the bathroom twice. When I came out to check my caller, it was Sally. I called back, “hello Sally,’ ‘hello
    Maryam’, she greeted back. ‘I called to inform you that I was delivered of a baby boy
    yesterday,’ she said. I managed to congratulate her, I faked happiness but I was not happy deep
    inside of me. After we ended the conversation my body system changed immediately. Many evil
    thoughts took hold of me. My friend who we thought will not be able to get pregnant is now a
    mother, Maryam the holy V-rgin cannot achieve one day pregnancy.

    It was useless keeping my
    V-rginity all these years. I should have enjoyed
    myself like Sally did. All the years of denial were needless after all.

    My husband came back from work that day with a news of promotion in his office. He was so excited about it but I was indifferent, neither did I show any sign of happiness. “Sweet heart, you
    didn’t even congratulate me for my new promotion,’ he queried. ‘Why should I congratulate you? Other men are impregnating
    their wives you, you are bringing promotion letter to the house. I want positive pregnancy test
    result in a white envelope not a promotion letter in a brown envelope.’ His countenance
    suddenly changed from good to bad.
    He just quietly left me in the sitting room to the bedroom.

    I went after him and scre-med at the top of my voice, ‘Impregnate Me or I die! Strong and real
    men give their wives children’. My husband did not alter a word and that made it painful. I moved
    closed to him, held his cloth as if he was owing me money. ‘If you are man enough make me
    pregnant now,’ he held me and said in a calm tune, “God makes all things beautiful in his own time”.

    Our marriage will soon be one year and I have not been seen with pregnancy. I no longer
    attended church regularly for shame and unnecessary questioning from church members.
    In fact, I began to hate those prayers people do whenever they see me. Those prayers makes everyone know you are waiting on the Lord for fruit of the womb. I started avoiding some women in church for the embarrassment from
    their so called prayers and wishes. This continued until I met with Mama ibeji, they call her mama ibeji because she had a set of twins. She walked up to me after Sunday service, ‘Mrs Omeiza
    how are you?’ ‘I am fine ma’am’, I replied.

    ‘Can I have a chat with you? Yes ma’am.’ I already knew she was going to talk about conception because she’s one of those zealous women who will not mind their business in church. I just wanted her to say what she wanted to say so I can go. ‘I know what you are going through Mrs Omeiza because I was there too. I waited three years after our wedding before God
    answered me.’ I didn’t know she waited that long anyway before having her children. She told me about a pastor in Abaji who God has been using to answer the prayer of waiting mothers.
    She promised to take me there if I was willing.
    Why won’t I be willing? I want to carry my baby too.

    How to tell my husband I want to go and see a Prophet over conception is a big problem. He will never subscribe to that idea because he is a man of faith. I started thinking of lies and immediately I thought of telling him I want to go and see my
    mom. I got it all planned out with Iya ibeji and we took off to Abaji the following day. When we got
    to Abaji I was expecting Iya ibeji to take me to a church since we were going to see a prophet but
    I was shocked to my bones when we got into the hotel and iya ibeji bought a ticket in my name at
    the reception. I summoned courage to asked her, “ma I thought you said we are coming to see a
    prophet, why are we here in a hotel?.” Do you want to carry your baby or not? She asked me as she looked through my eyes. Of course I want to carry my baby. So I replied, ‘I want to carry my
    baby.’ It seems a section of the hotel have been leased to prophet David Evans for this work. We
    got to the section and met two other women on the waiting queue.

    We sat down and waited for
    our turn. When we got in, I was expecting to see a man on suit with a Bible on his table and
    probably a bottle of anointing oil but that was far from it. Rather I saw a funky man with a well
    furnished office surrounded with beautiful electronic gadgets. This man can’t be a prophet, I thought within me.
