[A MUST READ]: Diary Of My Pastor’s Wife Episode 7

Abigail stared at me right in the face, as I narrated all that has been happening to me.

She is my immediate younger Sister, who is a stunt feminist and very independent.

“Sis, Why did you tell him that you will be patient? you should have granted the divorce and become free.” Abigail clucked and sighed loudly.

“I am people’s mentor and role model. A lot of young women in the church look up to me. I have to live a life worth emulating. what will people say if I get divorce and still stand on the church podium to preach marriage and love?” I asked looking at her like I demanded a pity.

“This is what you women always say. last week in Ibadan, a lady called Modupe was brutally beaten by her husband, she died.” Her voice got a bit emotional as she continued.

“she didn’t tell anyone of what she was going through. She thought things were going to change. she thought that one day Jesus was gonna come down and rescue her, or stop her husband from beating her. ”

“David has never beaten me.” I cut in.

“what difference does it make? it’s same story. Instead of filing for a divorce you think he is going to leave that girl and come back to you, while he is still under the manipulations of that witch called his mother! give me one reason why you think things will change positively?”

“because I have a God who is bigger than all my problems. He will sort this out. I don’t know how he is gonna do it, but he will.”

“For how long? Don’t forget that you are my only sister. Since mama and papa died, I haven’t recovered. please walk away sis. I don’t want to lose you.”

For just a moment, I saw such an unfettered emotions in my sister’s eyes, she was almost at the verge of tears and then immediately gets back to herself when she heard the kids scream her name.

“Aunty Abigail!” The both of them jumped on her like puppies as she pegged them on their foreheads excitedly.

“Aunty Abigail, mommy and daddy are fighting.” Mfon said shrilly.

“Daddy has a new mummy. and Grandma said we are adopted children.” Teye said Innocently.

Perhaps it was then that I began to feel submerged in hazy nostalgia. A feeling that never left me.

“Aunty Abigail, what is adoption?”

“Adoption means to be given birth to my darling. ” Abigail replied in a shaky tone. Her countenance changed as she cuddled the kids gradually.

Moments later, David stormed the house with few of the choir boys and young pastors in church, none of them greeted my sister nor I.

We watched them remove boxes and shoes from the bedroom, while David held Ifeoma’s luggage in his arms like a baby.

My chest grew tight with trepidation...

Zombie Vampires Chapter 2

   12 YEARS LATER   Taking a seat in the break room, Jaycee retrieved her phone and searched for messages, but none were found. With three remaining hours in her shift at the Glory Hole, her jaw was already aching. Aware of six more appointments before her shift concluded at eleven, she harbored a reluctance to complete them. At that moment, Cassandra entered, taking her soda from the fridge and joining Jaycee at the table. While Jaycee was engrossed in checking Facebook, Cassandra observed her activities.   “How’s your night so far?” Cassandra asked.   Jaycee looked up and replied, “I had three customers,”   “So?”   “I don’t like certain customers,” Jaycee replied.   “Why not? Preferences?”   “No, just don’t like them, never did.”   “Are you from the deep south or what?”   “No.”   “I never met someone with those preferences before, do you express that in public?”   “No, doesn’t come up in conversation much,” Jaycee replie...

Zombie Vampires Chapter 9

TYNICE Jaycee decided to start her first day at work catching up on the laundry. It had been two weeks since the last housekeeper had done laundry and Brandon only did enough for his father to get by. Heading downstairs, Jayce could hear the sound of a television and realized the vampire family must be living in one of the rooms close by. As she made her way down the hall to the laundry, she spied a young black girl in a room sitting on a couch watching the television. She looked to be around thirteen years old. Jaycee stopped at the doorway to introduce herself. “Hi,” Jayce said getting the girls attention. “Hi” the girl replied. “My name is Jaycee and work for Everett now. I’m his new housekeeper.” “My name is Alondra, my sister’s name is Veneshia, we live down here,” Alondra replied. “I heard that your live with your mother, is she around?” Jaycee heard a woman’s voice reply, “Yes, I’m here,” Jaycee was surprised to hear a voice not realizing the mother was standing behind her in...

Zombie Vampires Chapter 6

FRIDAY Jack handed a cup of meds to a resident from his med cart with a glass of water. He watched the resident take the pills and took the cup and glass back tossing them in the trash. Up on the television in the day room was a newscast about a beheaded vampire body found in an old farmhouse on an abandoned farm. The same farm he and Mike had disposed of Randall’s body six months ago. Jack swallowed hard and stepped into the med room to call Mike. Once the door was closed, he had Mike on the line.  “Did you see the news?” Jack asked.  “What news?” Mike asked.  “They found the body,” Jack replied.  “Holy shit, I thought they’d never find it out there.” “Well they did.” “Don’t panic, they won’t be able to tie it to us, it’s been too long. The body is probably bones now,” Mike said.  “I know, I’m just freaking out because it’s on the news. I don’t think there’s any way they can tie it to us.” “I’m surprised they didn’t report that fucker missing a long time ago.” ...
