THE COMPLETE WOMAN (EPISODE 1 – THE END)

The Complete Woman!

Episode 7.

The party continued at home, there was lots of food to eat and drinks was surplus. Surprisingly Marvis came to the party.
She kept on rushing to us and shaking hands with us. I was no longer comfortable with what she was doing and I noticed my husband wasn’t either, but we couldn’t just walk her out in the middle of all this crowd. And so I kept my cool, after all in few hours the whole thing should be over and done with.

She was drinking anything she could lay her hands on including alcohols. I was so surprised because Isaiah and I didnt buy any alcoholic drink. But we kept on seeing her drink from one bottle to the other.

She picked up a wrapped parcel and came to me and handed it over smiling.

Marvis: This is my wedding gift to you.

Me: Thank you (I said collecting it from her, from the moment I collected it I knew I was never opening it, my husband was just looking at her with her drama. She turned and left).

About two hours later, the party ended and everybody left.

Isaiah: Ah! Finally I can now have my wife to myself.

He lifted me and carried me inside our hotel room. When we were inside he put me down and looked me straight in the eyes.

Isaiah: Daniella, my love, my wife. I want you to know that I love you so much, you and no one else. You are everything to me. No matter what you will hear about me, do not judge me by it. I have never journeyed on this part before but I am choosing to journey it now along side with you, I may not be perfect or strong as you expect, but do not give up on me. I may be weak along the path, be strong for me and for both of us, I may be blind in a lot of things but be my eyes at that point. Don’t ever leave my side.

Me: (with tears in my heart and with joy in my heart I said) Yes my love. I promise I’d be with you always…..

We hugged and kissed and slowly he removed my zip and we fell on the bed still kissing and just as we were about to make sweet love his phone rang.

Me: Honey just ignore it please!
.
Isaiah: Honey this is the last one. Just let me answer please.

Me: Okay honey, just this one. (And then this)

Isaiah: Hello

Caller: Mr Isaiah could you please come to No 13 Grace street.

Isaiah: Who is this please.

Caller: Well am a good Samaritan, there is a lady here who just had a serious accident and she is battling with her life, your name is the only number on her phone that’s why I called.

Isaiah: A lady? What Lady!

Caller: Well from the ID card in her bag her name is one MARVIS OKOBEDO! Do you know anyone by that name?

Isaiah: Jesus ! Marvis had an accident ? Where and how?

Caller: Just come over sir. Thanks and bye.

Me: Honey who was that?

Isaiah; I dont know but I think Marvis had an accident on her way from here.. I must go to her.

Me: And you are the one they called? What about her parents ?

Isaiah: I don’t know o. I have to go to her

Me: No wait. I will call her family.

Isaiah: Honey she is battling with her life.
Dont worry I’d be back before you even know.

Me! Okay dear but please return abeg

It was already passed midnight. I paced up and down as I wondered where my husband was. Its been 4 hours since he left and not a word from him. I was beginning to get scared. His number was switched off. I didnt have Sister Marvis number. What might have happened? Did Marvis die? Was the accident critical? Or did my husband get into an accident. Various thoughts filled my head as I paced from room to parlour and back. This is my wedding night for crying out loud. Why me? Why Isaiah? Why would they call him ? Of all the people why call a man that got married on the same day of his wedding.

I decided to try the number again, and it was still the same thing. It was almost 2am. I was really terrified by now. And so I decided to call my mom. At first she didnt pick but after two more tries she answered!

Mummy: My child, you are not supposed to be calling me, you are on your honey moon.

Me: (crying) mummy!

Mummy: (I could feel her jump and sit up upon hearing me cry) what is it? Why are you crying?

Me: Mummy, mummy help me(/I cried even more)

Mummy: Talk to me, what is it? Why are you crying on your wedding night? Where is your husband?

Me: Mummy that’s why I am calling. I don’t know where Isaiah is?

Mummy: What do you mean you don’t know where your husband is?

Me: Mummy that’s the truth, I don’t know where he is.

Mummy: I don’t understand you, oya calm down and tell me what happened.

Me: Mummy we were together o, and his phone rang, somebody told us that sister Marvis was involved in an accident and needed to be rescued immediately and that it was only Isaiah they could call. He left since 8pm and up till now he didn’t come back. I have called him over and over again but his number is switched off.

Mummy: The devil is a liar! That Marvis again.

Me: Mummy I wouldn’t have let him go o.

Mummy: Shut up and stop crying, you shouldn’t have let him go but you did and we’ve past that stage. Now is not the time to should have or shouldn’t have. I can’t have my daughter crying on her wedding night.

Me: Mummy what do I do.

Mummy: You and your husband are no longer two but one, your spirits are connected and so you alone have the control over him, you are going to pray, you are going to call your husband home. The God I serve never fails, he has never failed and he won’t start now. And so you will get those knees on the ground and you are going to pray. That every power that is holding him down should lose their grips over him, wether spiritual or physical. Are you hearing me?

Me: Yes mummy!

Mummy: Listen to me, the marriage has just started. Every marriage is a war zone and only a prayerful woman wins in that fight. The moment you said I do, your opponent springs forth and the battle begins. So its either you are ready to fight or quit. Are you ready?

Me: Yes mummy, I am ready.

Mummy: Then stop those tears and get your knees on the floor, and call your husband home. As I speak to you I am already on my feet.

And then mummy started blasting in tongues, I was immediately charged up in my spirit and so I started praying too.

Me: I prayed for four hours, casting and binding, speaking in tongues and setting lose every rope that had been tied. I prayed and prayed until I slept off.

I woke up by 8am in the morning. It was the sound of knocking on my hotel that woke me up. I jumped up and ran to the door, I had prayed and cried myself to sleep. Thank God he is finally back. I swung the door opened.

It was mummy!
