[MUST READ!]: DIARY OF MY PASTOR'S WIFE (Episode 10)

I had been desperate to leave Lizzy’s office since the laboratory scientist took my blood.

While I watched Lizzy surf with her laptop, my mind had gone far as to the kind of diseases or sickness the lab test might result.

“I was thinking that I should go pick the kids and come back for the result.” I said.

“No hold on a bit, the lab guy will be done soon.”

moments later, there was a knock on the door.

“Come right in.” Lizzy said shrilly.

The lab guy appeared like a ghost, leaving my heart to tremble, I watched him handing a white envelope to Lizzy.

“Done?” Lizzy asked politely.

“Yes Doctor”

Lizzy opened the envelop hastily and I tugged on my ear thoughtfully.

“What’s the result?” I asked, still tugging my hands in my ears.

Lizzy shook her head and stared at me for a while.

“Hmmm… Ekom it’s malaria and typhoid jare.” She handed the envelop to me.

Opening one of the envelops, I grinned, hiding my face behind it. Not a word came out of my lips.


Silence.

More silence.

And a pinch more silence with a bit of reticence and stillness drown in.


“I haven’t seen malaria here o. where is the typhoid?”

“Look well, or do you need my glasses?”

Lizzy and the lab guy watched me like I was about to perform magic.

Suddenly my heart lifted. My hands Shook, stream of tears ran down my eyes. I became instantly emotional as I gaze at Lizzy. She smiled and nodded her head with joy.

“You never gave up on God Ekom.” She said as tears ran out from her eyes.

She continued “I am in shock myself.”

“I am in doubt Lizzy. How can I be pregnant and still menstruating? I asked in amazement.

“Well I see such cases almost every single day. In fact, my sister Joyce was pregnant and still bleeding for months, she never knew. you are pregnant my friend.” Lizzy said warmly.

“Jesus Christ Lizzy! I am pregnant?”

My jaw clenched, I wanted to explode joyously like a balloon. Lizzy laced her hands in mine, as the lab guy walked out.


I was calm on the outside. I was amazingly calm. But I knew that there was something inside of me, a foetus was growing inside of me. I felt pregnant instantly as I kept smiling and crying at the same time.


The heat in the room became intense, I looked at the envelop again and again, and then looked at my tummy.

“You are pregnant Ekom. Now you make me want God the more.” Lizzy said, as she wiped her tears with a white handkerchief, removed one other clean handkerchief and handed to me.


“you will be back here tomorrow, so that I can give you injection to stop you from bleeding. You need a lot of vegetables and fruits now.”

And then I cried again, It was the sweetest and happiest cry of my life..

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.” ...
