MY ROOMMATE AND THE MAN FROM A GRÀVEYARD
Episode 12
*****
“The dèvil had gone to meet her. His evil is germinating in her; if we don’t go now; it may be too late”
I stood confused and not knowing what to do or say.
******
“We need to go save her. Come and show me where she is” The Reverend Father said.
I still stood steel, still confused on what the Reverend Father was saying and who he was referring to, until he shouted:
“Where is your friend? Take me to her!”
My mind quickly remembered Victoria. We had left her alone with the ghost man hours ago.
Who knows what the ghost man have done to her. Who knows what type of evil this reverend father is seeing that’s making him anxious like this?
“Babe, the priest is talking about Victoria” Michael said in a low tune, touching me. He held my hand and followed the Reverend Father, who had already made his way to his car, and was kick-starting it.
We all entered into the car and the priest drove off. Michael was directing him on the road to follow.
Few minutes later, we arrived our lodge. The Reverend Father quickly rush down, leaving his car door opened and not minding to lock his car. He just kept moving forward without asking for directions to our apartment. I followed him to show him out apartment even though he was acting as if he knows it; or rather, his spirit was directing/leading him to our apartment.
Temidayo and Michael helped to shut the car door and then ran to meet up with us.
On getting to the apartment, we met James and Henry already standing and banging at our apartment door.
A man, I presume to be a pastor because he was holding a Bible, cross and anointing oil was with them. They had been banging at the door and trying to open it but the door refused to open.
Victoria was inside crying and screaming like a woman in labour pains. I could hear her bitter loud cry and scream for help. Everyone else could as well hear her.
“This door is not locked. Rather a force is holding it up as if it’s locked” The Reverend Father said and moved close to the door. James and Henry made way for him to pass through.
He sprinkled his holy water on the door and began to pray, rebuking the dèvil. The pastor also joined him to pray. Eventually, the door opened and we all rushed inside. On getting to where Victoria was and seeing the condition the ghost man had kept her, my mouth opened in awe.
Everyones mouth also opened. We were both surprised and flabbergasted at the same time.
We met Victoria lying on the floor with a swallon tommy. The size of her tommy was big like that of a pregnant woman who was about to deliver. She was screaming in pains as her tommy kept increasing.
“What did he do to you?” I shouted in curiosity.
“He had been raping me and releasing his eggs in me; saying he want me to have a child for him. He ended up releasing some eggs in me. Now he is forcing the eggs to grow in me and form a baby. He said I must give birth to the baby today” Victoria cried out.
“God forbid! The Reverend Father and the pastor shouted almost at the same time and within a twinkle of an eye, they both began to pray and speak in tongues.
I can’t say all the prayed about but I know it wasn’t easy to make the ghost man give up. At a point, the ghost man held Victoria refusing to let her go. He kept saying that Victoria must born his baby. But at last, victory of God prevail and Victoria was saved and redeemed.
The Reverend Father told us that we could’ve cast out the ghost man is we had believed that we were children of God and are his battle axe.
Victoria vowed never to neglect things or continue with her “I don’t care” lifestyle. Her parents were informed about what happened to her. They came as soon as they could and took Victoria to the hospital.
THE END.
