Hear My Story! – Episode 10

Episode 10……….

I didnt attend choir practise on saturday nor church service on Sunday because i didn’t want to see Mrs Williams. I’ve made up my mind not to tell her anything and i knew she would ask me if she set her eyes on me.

I didn’t know i was only adding more petrol to a burning fire. Some choir members came again after service to check on me, thinking i haven’t recovered fully or not strong enough to attend service.Of course when i saw them,i pretended to be weak still.

Bode came later in d evening when everybody had left.

He said “I knew you didn’t come to church today because of me, not because of your health. U refuse to forgive me despite my pleas. I told u its d work of d devil, please let’s be doing as we use to do before..pls now”..He began to weep.

I was moved with passion when i saw him weeping.I went to him, gave him a gentle pat on d back, and said “Dt’s okay. Stop crying.It wasnt only your fault, but mine too.We both need to ask God for forgiveness and make sure it doesn’t happen ever again….”

Before i could finish my sentence, he got up, held me and began to kiss me. Every attempt to rescue myself out of his hand failed.At a time,i surrendered, and again….It happened!

Before i could put myself together,Bode dressed up and ran out of my room.

I started weeping.

“Lord,i’ve done it again. I disobeyed U. I didn’t yield to d voice of d Holyspirit.

What will i do now?”.

For days, i was praying and weeping, asking God for forgiveness and what to do, i

didn’t hear anything as i heard it earlier.It was so obvious dt something was

wrong with me, as i was a shadow of myself. Even my dressing changed,a 60yr old

woman would dress better.

Everyone was asking,”what’s wrong with you?. Hope there’s no problem.Are u still sick?”.

My usual answer was “No problem,all is well”..but within me,i knew nothing was well.

I wasn’t attending mid-week services also. I would prefer to be in my room, and be thinking. D thought dt bothered me most was “Will God ever forgive me?.

If d first one was a mistake, what about ds one?”.

Mrs Williams called me one wednesday evening after having prayer meeting in church.”Sis Sewa,i noticed u were not in church today for d prayer meeting, how are u?.

“I’m fine ma”.

“Then,why have u been keeping urself away from church?”.

“Nothing ma.”

“U’ve started again.Oh!.Dt reminds me, u promised to tell me something d other day ,will u come and see me tomorrow after school?. I will be waiting for u at d church office.”

“What time ma?”

“Let’s make it 4pm”.

“Ok ma”.

She hung up.

My heart began to beat very fast. I could hear d sound.

What will i say?. Maybe i should just cook up a story..but,what if she knew it’s all lies. Oh my God!..what

mess have i gotten myself into?. How will i get out of ds now?.

As i was pondering over ds,my phone rang.

It was my dad. I picked it.

What did he say?.

We shall see in d next part.
