Aka Mummy E
Finally the day came for reverend Leo to be laid to rest. His wife Rachael was already 7months pregnant and her pregnancy is already very visible to even the smallest of children. The entire church was dressed in black.
Rachael wore a black maternity gown and a black scarf on her head. She also wore a dark shade. Both men and women pitied her as they all moved to the grace side.
Mrs Alfred walked side by side with her husband while she kept her eyes focused on Rachael. She wondered how the woman was able to pretend perfectly like she was a saint when she was cheating on her husband even before he died.
While they gently lowered the coffin, pastor Jim who was the officiating minister addressed everyone and encouraged them to be strong and rejoice because reverend Leo was in heaven. He then made a promise that the church would take card of the reverends wife and his unborn child.
Rachael fell on the ground and wept like a baby as they gently covered the grace with sand. The women held unto her and tried to move her away.
Alfred who was very convinced that Rachael orchestrated the shooting and killing of Reverend Leo kept on blinking his eyes in Surprise at her skills in acting and how perfectly she was able to convince everyone around to have pity on her.
He knew Rachael was a dangerous person and he ought to act fast if not him or his wife would be her next target.
After the grace was covered the people started leaving one after the other. Some said words of consolation to the reverends wife, others have her envelope of money to help her take care of herself and her unborn child.
Mrs Alfred watched as Alfred walked up to her and held her hand and also gave her an envelope. She knew what was going on but shook her head in silence. Alfred later walks up to his wife and together they left the burial place. Immediately they got to thier house, he called his wife.
Alfred: Honey please come.
Mrs Alfred walks up to meet her husband as she wondered what it was he wanted to tell her.
Alfred: we leave tonight.
Mrs Alfred: Leave tonight? Leave tonight to where? I don’t understand.
Alfred: what is it you don’t understand? I said we are leaving this town tonight.
Mrs Alfred: Tonight? But why tonight? Is there something wrong?
Alfred: Nothing is wrong dear, just start packing we are leaving tonight. We are leaving this town tonight.
Mrs Alfred: But can’t we wait till morning to talk about this? Why are we leaving as if we are running away from something? Or is there something you are running from?
Alfred: why do women like plenty questions? Why can’t they just hear and obey? Please stop asking me unnecessary questions, just pack up everything we are leaving tonight. I am going out to arrange for a truck that will help convey us and all of our properties.
Mrs Alfred: But where would we go to.
Alfred: Don’t worry about that, I already made preparations on it. Just get the things and the children ready.
Alfred was about moving but he felt his stomach rumble and he dropped his bag and runs into the toilet. And at the same minute a message enters his phone. Mrs Alfred quietly picks up the phone to see who it came from.
“I need you tonight. I can’t stay alone lonely. So please come over. Also we need to plan on how to take care of that obstacle you call a wife. I will be waiting for you and don’t you dare ignore this message, you know what I can do”.
The message was from ”mummy reverend”.
Mrs Alfred quickly dropped the phone before her husband will catch her on his phone. She quickly runs into thier room and starts packing up thier things just as her husband had instructed. But the content of the message kept troubling her heart. She couldn’t understand what Rachael meant by “we need to take care of the obstacle you call a wife” why does she mean by that?
Also , “don’t you dare ignore this message” does it mean her husband has been ignoring messages from her?
And lastly. “You know what I can do” what can she do to her husband ? Was she blackmailing Alfred? Was that the reason Alfred wants them to move away? What could she possibly have against her husband?
These and many more questions filled her head as she searched for answers but finds non.
