THE PASTOR
EPISODE 5
Yeah immediately I bolted the door the first person I saw was the secretary, he shook his head in disappointment. When I saw him I remembered all his words the other day and I saw the reason why he tried to warn me. He knew of the pastor’s secretary and was just trying to help me out but as stubborn and strong headed I was, I didn’t listen to him. How could I not see all the red flags of this pastor and so called church. I kept crying before his words broke me off from my imagination, “you should get your face cleaned up behave like you saw nothing and get the hell out of here, I’m just trying to help you so better listen this time. You better look for a good church he continued, don’t you come back here… Go to an apostolic church or something give your life to Christ and try to fight out of what you put yourself into…..see this as a second chance.
I cleaned myself up and went out but before I did I went into the shrine and took my pick out of the bottle I guess that was the mistake I made as this alerted the pastor that I knew the real him and that was the starting of all my problem.
For starters I was fine before I went to the church and all the talk about my destiny being stolen was just for show to get me for his stupid ritual. My life was going fine before all the pastor bullshit but I watched as my life crumbled before my eyes. I thought if I removed my picture then he had nothing with me but I was all wrong.
I remembered the ants I saw in the used condoms and I knew I was screwed for real. The last time we had s*x he didn’t use a condom does that mean those ants are inside of me?. I cried my eyes out when I remembered the warnings and red flags I turned deaf ears and blind eyes too.
I got a text from my fiance asking me to come over to his house, when I got there he asked me what affairs I was having with a certain pastor and I told him I had nothing with him. He told me he knew what type of a church it is and me going there doesn’t suit well with him. He said I hurt him and I couldn’t just understand what I did until he showed me a picture of me and the pastor. It was just my back but the birth mark at my a*s sold me out.
I tried explaining to him but he wasn’t listening, I cried and begged him telling him it wasn’t what it seems that he should give me a chance to explain and of course he did for some reasons I don’t know.
Me: Babe it isn’t what it looks like
Fiance: Shalom you’ve said that a dozen times if you don’t have what to say just get out of my house.
Me: See my mom was the one who took me to the church and the pastor said some weird things that only I know of and I believed him. He said I would undergo a kind of purification and that was what was happening there.
Fiance: You must think I’m a fool, all I see is a supposed man of God f*****g my girl and you fall that purification?!!???. Are you a child? I need an answer from you because I don’t understand why you will fall for such nonsense and who do you think took this photos and sent them huh?. The same pastor who is supposed to be a man of God ehhh. See shalom I dated you for 2 years and just 2 months ago I was planning on engaging you and when I finally do u see all this?!!!!!. I thought you were different. I thought you weren’t like the others.
Me: babe I’m different can’t you see, I’m not like them and I’m sorry.
Fiance: sorry doesn’t fix this okay, sorry just doesn’t cut it and you know it. I expected more and for an educated woman you’re just dump.
Me:babe please…….
Fiance: don’t you call me that again now take off the ring and get out now. I don’t want to ever see you again and for the records we are over.
I just couldn’t believe my ears or yeah I could believe it he just broke up with me and I sure didn’t blame him, I only blame the stupid pastor that sent him those pictures. Who did I ever offend.
But that was the beginning of my problem as I received a call saying that my boutique just caught fire. I couldn’t even cry what was happening I went home and saw my mom looking so sick I took her to the hospital but they couldn’t diagnose what was wrong with her. I just looked at my mom who wasn’t even talking anymore and looked at myself I knew I was in trouble and this was just the beginning……..
