THE LOST IDENTITY: Episode 11 – The End

EPISODE 11

According to my sisters……..

one morning after the family morning Alter, mum was in tears. She pleaded with dad to call me. Dad refused. According to my sisters, dad said…..

-i have never, and will never fail in my duties as a father. I take examples from God himself. We are sinners, yet he never deprived us of his love. But what God does not do is force people to come to him. It is a personal decision. Honey, dad called mum, i won’t call junior. Just like the prodigal son, bible says when he exhausted all he had, HE REMEMBERED HOME and then HIS FATHER.

You know cornell thought i was too old fashioned christain. I am only following divine principles. Bible says, Let everything be done decently and in order. The house of God is not a psychiatric home for mad people. I am praying for him, i did not abandon him but you see this university of experience he enroled himself by himself, he needs to thoroughly learn from it. Only then can he understand and choose by himself which to follow. The swagger kind of christainity or THE BIBLE STANDARD.

Mum cried and cried. Then she shared her revelation. Mum said….

Honey, it was so real. I kept hearing a lady’s voice echoing his name. He was running after the voice. I was running after him. I was running and crying, and i was saying JUNIOR COME BACK. He didn’t listen to me.
Honey you were watching from afar, i was telling you to call him back, you refused. I kept following him. Then, he got to the woman, she has very looong hair, and very long nails.

Cornell called her DARLING.
What? I replied, dar what ? Never, not when I’m alive.
The woman said to me, “Then prepare to die because he belongs to me”

“Shut that gutter you call a mouth”
i replied. How dare you reply a daughter of zion in such manner, i told her, i will not die, i will live and declare God’s goodness in the Land of the living.

She replied she wasn’t there because of me because we have nothing in common. She was there for cornell. Then she drew cornell closer and kissed him before my very eyes.

I shouted TAAAAAAAAAR, how dare you? I pushed cornell away and slapped him. Are are Alright? I asked, have you lost? No shame, No respect, No fear of God?

The woman said cornell, there no time. Let’s go.

“To where” i asked. I faced cornell. You are not going anywhere.

“Cornell” the woman shouted. Let’s Go, now!!!

Cornell pushed me. Then he said to me…..

-mum, let me be. Please, just like dad, MIND YOUR BUSINESS. Cornell followed her.

I was crying and shouting.

Cornell you are my business. Come back my son. He did not come back. He followed the woman. At the end of that road was a ditch burning with fire. The woman pushed him inside.

According to my sisters, that line got them crying. They entered into prayers. Mum begged dad to call me, dad refused. Except i call him and apologise.

Dear youths,
My relationship with mama faith became even stronger. Her daughter is almost my age, she’s 21. Lydia came home from her school in ghana. She is so beautiful. She was wearing a short jean and jean jacket. She had this crazy hair cut. I just couldn’t take my eyes off her legs, woow very fresh. Lydia is a beauty to behold.

She saw me and was looking at me. I grew butterflies in my stomach. Now, this was what my affair with MAMA FAITH caused for me. I started womanizing.

I started having eyes for lydia.

Gresh my friend started hating me. I never knew why until i pumped into MAMA FAITH taking calls.

-listen to me gresh, i chose you right? Now I’m done with you. Stop pestering me.

Ha, eheee? Are my ears deceiving me? I quickly dodged and took out my phone and was recording the conversation.

I didn’t know Gresham’s reply but she gave out a huge laugh and replied thus……

-Hahahahahahahaha, foool. Idiot. You have no prove. No pictures, you do not even have a glue of how my body is. Why do you think it must be at night and must be dark? Look, i have always known you will turn out this way. You are a looser. Stop calling this line. And listen, don’t you dare try anything stupid. I will crush you.

She dropped the call.

I ran into the toilet as she stepped out of the sitting room.

Jesus Christ !!! I screamed silently. is she not supposed to be a pastor’s wife? Even she herself, a pastor ?

I just had a voice that sounded like my dad’s

-and are you not supposed to be the son of a pastor? Who once taught the youths in church. Can you remember ? The last topic you spoke on? THE SET APART.

I got chills all over me. Goose bumps grew in their hundreds. God was speaking, he was speaking, he was trying to call me back. I started crying. I have gone deep. My life is messed up. Now i drink, i womanize.

Indeed, dad said it…..

“When a drop, just a drop of kerosene drops into a drum of clean purified water, it becomes useless. Kerosene and water is liquid but can never be thesame”.

I have accomdated more than just a drop. I was crying. Yet, i couldn’t let go. I couldn’t drop this load of sin. I still found pleasure in them.

Even as God’s spirit spoke to my soul, i was hatching plans to get off MAMA FAITH’S HOOK. I already have eyes for LYDIA. I won’t rest until i eat her too. First i need to spew out her mum. I walked out of the toilet, leaving behind the words of God’s spirit to me. Infact, i flushed it down the toilet.

MAMA was invited to a women’s convention as guest speaker. She told me to accompany her. PAPA was like why will a man accompany her to a women’s convention.

-just as an Aide she replied.

-you are stressing this guy too much. Don’t take his humility as stupidity. He is going no where.

Mama got angry. Come and hear hot argument. Papa finally allowed us. We got to her lodge. Mama undressed. the lights were on. I got out my phone and was taking shots. Mama didn’t even oblige. The old woman was just posing. This is someone who was invited for a convention. What will she be teaching women bikonu.

Satan got the better part of me dear youths. I was bent on using those pictures to blackmail her if she tries stopping Lydia and me.

What Gresham didn’t do, i have done. I felt like i had the whole world right in my palm. I refused doing anything with her even when she tried forcing it. Lydia was all i had in mind.

I watched MAMA as she ministered. People were falling under…….do i call it ANOINTING? Miracles were happening. I was confused. How come? Hmmm, i played the keyboard as she ministered. The spirit was moving but i don’t know what spirit it was because THE HOLYSPIRIT has nothing to do with a sinner.

After the programme that night, she tried forcing herself on me. I refused. I started avoiding. I used the program she came for as excuse. We might get caught.

Lydia and me started getting along well. She would always hug me, play with me. She would always want to be with me. PAPA liked what he saw. He liked our closeness. That was an advantage.

MAMA was always angry each time she sees lydia and me. One day, we were in the sitting room. I couldn’t hold it anymore. I dragged lydia and kissed her. She didn’t refuse. The way she responded showed she too has been in need of it. We were on the unholy act when MAMA walked in.

HOLYSPIRIT she shouted. What? In my house? Cornell, you dare try defining my daughter in my house? You are so done for.

She started pressing her phone, probably trying to call PAPA. I quickly sent her the nudes. Her expression showed she’s got the message. I winked.

She dropped her phone and said to us…..

-this is the house of God. How dare you defile here? What if a minister of God comes to visit? What rubbish!!! Will you get out.

Iydia was shivering. i wasn’t. I have the password to lock her up. I smiled in victory. I never knew, oh, i never knew (crying) i never knew i was taking a viper for earthworm. I totally forgot that a fox only looks like a dog. It is not friendly like the dog.

Indeed, the devil walketh about seeking whom he will devour.

THIS WAS THE BEGINNING OF THE END FOR ME.
