Episode 76

“So what do I do now?” I asked.

“I don’t know! The man on the phone replied.

“Jesus! Please help me!” I said admist tears.

“Madam! Please calm down. Crying will not solve all these you need to go to the court and prove the innocence of my your man. A weapon was discovered among his possessions. The police has taken him custody. Get a good lawyer. This case is going to be a tough one.

You have to fight for your husband or watch him sentenced for many years”.

“God! Silas is innocent! Where did they get a gun?”

“You can ask the police men when you get to the station”.

I woke up. It was all a dream. I gasped as I discovered my phone was ringing.

It was a Saturday. I had finished my quiet time and had gone back to bed after it. I was yet to hear from Silas and here was this scary dream.

I tried to picked up the call and swiped the green bar.

“Hello Charming! Where have you been? What happened?”

“Please start coming! Please come as fast as you can!” He said and that was how the call ended.

My heart started pounding heavily.

Lord what is going on? Daddy please, don’t allow the devil to prevail. Please!

I quickly wore whatever I could and rushed out of the house. I called Evelyn and told her and my gateman the start praying for Silas and I.

I got into my car and drove out of the house. I was careful enough not to drive with too much speed.

In no time, I arrived at the place and what I met there was amazing.

Two police men had handcuffed my Charming and was trying to drag him away. It seemed they would have gotten away with him, there was a riot. The neighbours were resisting the police officers. It was a serious riot.

“Which kind nonsense be that?”

“We no gree! Na pastor he be! Na set up!” A man yelled.

“What’s the meaning of all these nonsense?”

“Ona no go use ona uniform oppress people for here!”

“Armed robbers dey road dey rob people, ona no see them catch. Na our innocent pastor you wan arrest!”

I had no idea what was going on, but I was sure to find out very soon.

I looked for a woman standing by and asked her what was going on.

“I don’t know for these useless police men. They said they caught Oga Silas with a gun and came to arrest him. The compound boys no gree for them ooo! Which kind nonsense be that? Silas for that matter. Silas wey if you slap he no go answer you. They cannot carry him oo! Na the full compound them go carry. We can’t accept that oppression!” She answered angrily.

I looked around and saw the fight was getting intense. The boys had taken Silas from the police officers and had uncuffed him.

“This fight had been on since last night. We are not going to accept such nonsense!” The woman added.

I quickly brought out my phone and dialed one of my friends who was a police officer. I told him everything that was going on. He told me he was on his way.

I noticed the police officers were overpowered by the compound boys and their phones were taken from them. That’s why they couldn’t get back up.

I was completely quiet. I don’t have a loud voice or the strength to fight with anyone. I just stood in the crowd, waiting for my friend to show up. He was coming with enough men to call the boys down. Then the issue would be addressed.

“Daddy! Why am I this quiet? I thought I was supposed to panic or try to fight like the boys”.

“CRIS! START PRAYING IN TONGUES RIGHT NOW. START TAKING OVER THE SITUATION”.

I knew I didn’t have time to waste. I started whispering in tongues. I stood quietly and whispered tongues under my breath.

I was still waiting when Maggie’s car drove into the compound. She came out and our eyes met. She was shocked at first, but was smart enough to change it into a smile. What’s going on?

I think I understand why the boys are shouting that it was all a set up.

Anger boiled within me.

“CRIS! KEEP PRAYING IN TONGUES! DON’T STOP! STAY CALM! DON’T LET YOUR EMOTIONS OVER POWER YOU!” Came the gentle whisper.

“Daddy please help me! I guess this was really a set up and I have just found the culprit.

“CALM DOWN! I HAVE AN INSTRUCTION FOR YOU!”

“Daddy, there’s no need for any instruction! I will make sure Maggie rots in jail!”

“DID YOU JUST SAY THAT TO ME? THAT I SHOULD GO AWAY WITH MY INSTRUCTIONS?”

Oh my goodness! Anger was having the best part of me.

“Daddy! I’m sorry!”

“CRIS! IT LOOKS LIKE YOU ARE SMARTER THAN ME! LET ME ALLOW YOU HANDLE THE SITUATION ACCORDING THE BULKINESS OF WISDOM YOU HAVE IN YOUR HEAD!”

“No daddy! I’m a stupid girl! I have no wisdom of my own. Please! I need your instructions”, I pleaded within me.

Maggie was now approaching.

“CARRY YOUR PHONE AND START RECORDING”, Came the instruction.

I quickly brought out my phone and started recording.

“Cris! I have done it. I have dealt with him. I was the one who got the guy who opened his door. He’s such an expert in criminology! He opened the door and hid the weapon in his house.

It was a smart operation! Cleverly done. I told you it was time to teach that gateman to know his place. He belongs at the gate, he should learn to remain at the gate”.

I was shocked. I wanted to scream, but I was still speaking in tongues, so my anger was seriously pressed down. It was fighting to burst it’s way out, but it looked as if the tongues had this ability that, whenever anger tired to take over, it was weakened immediately.

“What did you say you did?” An angry looking boy shouted.

“Make ona come ooo! See the witch wey cause all the wahala. God don catch am. She don dey confess!” He shouted.

The boy grabbed Maggie like a criminal. By then, more than two slaps had landed on her face. Maggie also fought and shouted on top of her voice.

“I will get you arrested! You rat! Get your hands off me! Do I look like your mate?” She shouted.

The boy went to me and snatched my phone out of my hands.

“Everyone! Please keep quiet and listen!” He announced.

There was silence everywhere. He saved what I was recording and quickly played it.

Everyone heard all Maggie’s confession and screamed in rage.

The beating Maggie received was out of this world. Thank God my police friend arrived on time. His men took over. They were much in number, so they were able to rescue Maggie out of their jungle justice.

She was already bleeding with a battered and swollen face. I looked at her with pity, instead of the anger I was feeling earlier.

My friend asked for an explanation to what happened and the boys explained everything to him. He had to act wisely and do what the boys wanted. Maggie was handcuffed and taken into the police van.

Silas was set free on the spot. Wow! Was this a new kind of Nigerian court? Wow! God had given us a new court. Chai! It’s is serious foolishness to fight against God’s will. Look at how Maggie was disgraced.

“CRIS! CAN YOU SEE WHAT YOUR ANGER WOULD HAVE MADE YOU LOSE?”

“Ha! Daddy you have done it again! You’re my Superman! My hero!”

“SHEYBI YOU WERE TELLING ME THERE IS NO NEED FOR INSTRUCTIONS?”

“Ha Daddy! That was my flesh na! It can’t be me”.

“SO YOU ALLOWED YOUR FLESH TO TELL ME TRASH ABI?”

“Ah! Daddy! Daddy! No na! I’m so sorry my darling! I promise you to be a good girl next time?”

“YES! I REALLY NEED THAT PROMISE. BECAUSE WE STILL HAVE ALOT TO DO”.

“Really? That’s wonderful!”

“SO WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN TO MAGGIE?”

“Ha! Daddy, you’re asking me? Me that does not know anything!” I replied grinning.

“WHAT DO YOU PLAN ON DOING WITH HER?”

“She had sentenced herself by her actions. She got herself into the mess. She’s going to enjoy herself in jail”, I answered.

“I GUESS YOU PROMISED TO FOLLOW EVERY INSTRUCTION I GIVE, RIGHT?”

“Yes sir!”

“YOU’RE GOING TO MAKE SURE SHE’S FREED TODAY”.

“Ha! Daddy!”

“YES BABY! IS THERE A PROBLEM WITH THAT?”

“Yes! I mean no sir!”

“THAT’S MY BABY GIRL!”

I frowned and tightened my fists.

“WON’T YOU SMILE? I SAID THAT’S MY BABY GIRL!”

“Daddy! That girl deserves to be in jail. She’s being a pain in my…..”

“CRIS! YOU DESERVE TO BE IN THE PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL RIGHT NOW. IS IT BECAUSE YOU WERE A GOOD GIRL THAT YOU GOT HEALED?”

I exhaled.

“I’m sorry Daddy! I almost forgot all what you taught me. I’m nothing but a product of your mercy. I must show mercy to others as well. Thank you so much Daddy!”

“YOU’RE WELCOME!”

The boys were around Silas talking with him. I smiled and walked up to meet them.

The moment he saw me, he stood up and rushed to hug me.

“Daddy! He wants to hug me ooo! You don’t like me hugging him”, I said within me.

“GO AHEAD AND HUG HIM. YOU HAVE MY PERMISSION!”

I squealed like a little girl and ran into his arms. It was our first hug in our relationship.

I held him so tight and never wanted to let go.

“Thank you for your prayers. The greatest gift God can give his sons, is a wife that can pray. A praying woman! She’s the covering of her husband.

He pulled out of my grip and held my hands. For a moment, we both forgot we were surrounded by the entire neighborhood.

“The moment you started praying for me, I received the signal over here. I knew you were praying wherever you were. Thank you so much for being my gatekeeper. The enemies would have destroyed me long ago, if not for your Intercessions.

Thank you so much. I want to kiss you, but I will reserve it for our wedding day. You are a package worth waiting for”, he said grinning.

“Charming! Stop thanking me. It’s God that answered all my prayers. Without him answering my prayers, there would be no us! I mean, Satan would have destroyed the two of us.

He showed us mercy! He never gave up on us. Even today, I almost messed up. But immediately I apologized, he came to the rescue. He gave me the perfect idea at the right time.

I never knew that boy kept an eye on me. He saw me when I brought out the phone to record her. How he knew I was tracking what Maggie was saying is still a mystery to me. He eavesdropped on our conversation and interrupted us. He exposed Maggie to everyone.

God is seriously for us. God is on our side. This marriage will stand. The gates of hell will never be able to prevail over what God has established. He has joined us together and Satan cannot stop it.

Jesus has been so merciful to me in particular. I don’t know what he saw in me. I don’t know what I did to deserve his mercy!” I said and tears rolled down my cheeks.

He wiped off my tears with the back of his hands and hugged me tightly.

“Wait ooo! Is that our pastor?”

“Me sef I come dey wonder ooo!”

“Pastor don get babe ooo!”

They all burst into laughter.

We had to return back to the real world.

“Pastor no fear! Just tell us to excuse you and we would gladly do so!” One of them said and they all roared in laughter.

“Pastor! Who is this angel in our midst?”

“She’s…” Silas tried to answer, but was interrupted.

“Don’t tell us she’s one of your church sisters ooo. Tell us that at last, you have found your missing rib”.

“Actually, I wanted to tell you she’s my fiancee”, he replied.

The yelled like garage boys and crowded me like I had just scored against Barcelona in a football competition.

To be continued…….

Please you guys should take it easy on Maggie. She’s a darling oooo
?????????

She’s only being a good friend!

Maggie is a good friend E I, E I OOOO.

God has triumphed again.

Don’t mind Cris who almost blew things up.

Ha! The way this wedding has been delayed is too much. Please wedding planning committee. It’s as if you guys forgot about the wedding.
