[MUST READ!]: DIARY OF MY PASTORS WIFE Episode 1

 That morning, my husband David came to pick me at the airport. He was dry faced and tensed, very unusual.


Other times, David would be so excited to come pick me, he would kiss me and hug me passionately, but now, everything became different.

“You kept me waiting for hours in there.”

I said, gazing angrily at him.

“Don’t tell me it’s traffic honey, today is Saturday.”


“I am sorry, I had to pick the kids from summer lessons, and then rush to church to counsel a few couples.”He said soothingly.


“you now prepare the kids for school, What happened to Ifeoma? she is the kids nanny.”


“And you are the Kids mom!” He Screamed suddenly.

“you’ve been away from your family for 5months Ekom, the kids don’t even talk about you anymore.” David deliberately slowed his breathing in a bid to calm himself down.


I was silent for a while.

my lips quivered, but David ignored that he saw tears glistening in my eyes.


Catching his eyes as he tried to look at me, I sensed a shiver of unease go through him.


He was right, I was away from my family for four months or more, I had women’s conference and hundreds of women to mentor in Houston. It was a moment I didn’t want to miss.

Then I broke the silence; “what of Ifeoma?”


David looked uncertain. “she fell ill, so I asked her to go see Doctor Dennis.”


We were both quiet until we got home.


I sat on my bed now, I slipped off my slippers and sank my feet into rug and decided to keep them sunk in so that my toes would feel cushioned. So that a part of me would feel safe.


“mummy!” my daughter screamed, breathing deeply.

She smuggled into my arms and I grabbed her tight to myself.


“where is your sister?” I whispered into her ears.


“she is sleeping.”


Not long I heard tiny foots running along the corridor that led to my room. “mummy, mummy…” She jumped on me and kissed me on my cheeks, leaving me in the sweet comfort of motherhood.


They looked so healthy and chubby.


“what has aunty Ifeoma and Daddy been feeding you with?”


“Golden morn and banana porridge!” they chorused shrilly.


“Mummy, Church people said that you are no longer daddy’s wife.” My first daughter Teye said, her eyes became sad. Deep and sad.


“Aunty Ifeoma Now sleeps in daddy’s room.” Mfon the youngest said.


My heart jumped, I knew at that moment, that there were stories In their eyes that I was yet to know....

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.” ...
