PART 22
Stone heard his phone ring from his deep sleep… he jumped up from sleep hoping God could have heard his prayer. Yes! It was her line calling him
“ Hello Baby!” Stone could not remember the last time he called Ella “Baby”. Unfortunately Ella wasn’t on the other side of the line to hear that. Rejoice was the one who dialed the number but the phone was on speaker phone. Rejoice raised her eyebrow in shock at hearing her father call her mother Baby.
“ Hello, Daddy!”
“ Rejoice Darling, how are you? How is your mother?, please don’t tell me she is dead.”
“ No, she is not, but she is almost close to it.”
Stone Went really quiet, but recovered from the shock of that news when he heard Folabi’s Voice.
“ Hello Sir… Good Afternoon Sir, all hope is not lost, we should pray than give fear a chance…”
“ Ok, since you are there, tell me the truth, How Bad is it?”
“ Very Bad, but I believe God to touch her.”
“ Ok…I will pray since that’s all I can do at this moment… Thank you . please take care of Rejoice for me, and please can you keep this phone on.”
“ I will”.
Stone dropped the call and he knew he couldn’t afford to lose Ella…
“ God can my wife Recover from this Virus?”
**************
Xavier looked at Sharon and he knew he was hurting a beautiful soul, he had started dating her just to use her to transfer the Virus to other islanders, but she seem to have fallen in love with him. He didn’t love her. He loved his wife and was missing her. He decided to spelt things out…
“ Sharon! I am married…” Xavier said to Sharon as they sat on the island.
“ You said what?”
“ I am married, I am sorry…”
“ You are sorry… No you are joking, just tell me that you are no longer interested in me and I will get the drift. You don’t have to lie.”
“ Actually, I am serious and my attraction to you was actually based on a selfish and wicked reason. I am sorry. I have a family I love.”
Sharon couldn’t believe she had been ditched the 39th time. How come men always treated her like trash, even Folabi she had been eyeing for years didn’t care one bit about her, but instead he was in love with a married woman. What was eating her up or killing her was worse than the Islingbee Virus.
Sharon rose up and ran away from Xavier.
“Take me away, kill me, even let me have the Virus. God what have I done to you,? I am 40 and unmarried, I have been making myself available for men for free, yet they drop me like a piece a baggage. What?

Ruth stood by the window thinking about the escape in few days. A big drum of Islingbee Virus sat in her room. Late Professor Glass had made enough Virus which Ruth had the intention of Spreading into the air the moment the 1000 families have boarded the airships…
“ I am about to Win you Jehovah, I told you we don’t have to be righteous to be successful, I have achieved that so far, now I am about to make you understand that I can take creation from your hand. We are building a new earth that will not have you in it. “ Ruth said laughing ruthlessly.
“If only they had known better that I will turn out ruthless, I should have been named Mercy rather than Ruth…
With a Wicked smile, She screamed out loud as her eyeballs shone green…
“Oh Earth… Weep for your end is here!” Ruth laughed as her female lover massaged her back from behind…
Ruth’s fight against Jehovah dated 15 years back….
