MARRIED TO HIS MOTHER
CHAPTER ELEVEN.
Following the injury Kemisola got from her fracas with Clara and Olamilekan, she was weak as she could hardly do things without been assisted. Her face was swollen despite the medications that had been applied. As a result of this, it limit her prayers because she could not get enough strength. She laid on her bed shedding few tears and whispering some words silently.
“Ah, I should have listen to my mother, see what over reaction has landed me too, huh, who will believe that Olamilekan could join hands with Clara to beat me to this extent.hmmm” she said to herself as she was laid on her bed and using the back of her hand to clean the few tears dropping.
“What is even wrong with me, I was shouting and got beaten over a man that do not even know what he was doing, ah, ah..” Kemisola flashed back to how she shouted and beaten by Clara with Olamilekan not helping her, then she burst out crying louder.
“I will not give up, ehn, I will not, Clara will not have her way, huh…” She wept again as she covered herself up with the cover cloth and sneezing.
“No, I must not cry, I don’t need to cry” she said but she wept louder than before.
********************
Iya Labake was not backing down to reclaim her position in her son’s life and she is ready to do anything to achieve that. She summoned an emergency meeting with her members.
“Iya Labake, why are you troubling us, at this hour of the day, this is not the proper time” One of the members asked her.
“I was feeding my six month old child when I heard your call, Iya Labake” A new member of the group said to her.
“I was eating my lunch when she summoned us” The leader added while younger members were murmuring some inaudible words.
“I know this is not the right time to call this meeting but what will I do, A sa ni fi ina lori orile sun (we will not lose guard).” Iya Labake said to them.
“You see, the reason why I called this emergency meeting is for us to re-strategise on how we can take Kemisola and Clara down
” Iya Labake” We too are not resting on their matter, there is no resting until we are able to bring them down.” The leader added.
“So what are we now going to do and what should we do to make our power more potent in order to face them” Iya Labake asked the member as she was looking around to see if there was anyone with a possible solution.
“It is easy, we just have to add fasting to our power. We shall not eat nor drink for seven days until we get them, also we would not see the sun nor the moon. No food nor water till we bring both Kemisola and Clara down” One of the members declared.
“Hmm, but what has fasting had to do with us fighting them” Another member asked.
“Fasting is a potent mechanism to ensure that we are committed” She replied.
“So you mean you want us to go through that process to ensure they are destroyed” Another asked.
“Yes” she answered.
“Don’t forget that before we can achieve something bigger, we have to sacrifice many things and that is one of it and more so we must maintain our purity for that seven days that is no having of sexual relationship with our husbands for those of us that have. All these would make us strong and battle them” She explained to them.
“But where do you get to understand all these hidden secrets” Iya Labake asked her.
“Hmmm, you see, when you want to get something you have to be committed, it is a long story and it is not today’s issue but that is the method I will suggest we use against the so called Christians” She added.
“As you can see that we have given them some space to think they have defeated us, so they would think all is solved and celebrate and in the midst of their unguarded hours we would strike them hard” She added.
“That’s is great and I know that if we commit ourselves into it we would defeat them” Iya Labake added smiling happily.
“We are starting from today, we must not sleep nor rest until we achieve our aims” She said while the rest applauded and were happy.
That night Iya Labake was full of joy and happiness as she was moving about in her room and talking to herself.
“I know that I shall get rid of those two…whatever it will take me, I will do” she said and smiled to herself again.
“Clara you slapped me, you of all people, you will regret it” She added as she changed into her sleeping robe.
*************************
Clara on her part went to the herbalist to thank him for a Job well done. She was happy as she handed an envelope full of money to the man.
“Baba, I have come to say thank you” Clara said to the herbalist bowing down a bit.
“You are doing good my child and I know that you will surely last longer because he who respect elders would surely last longer” The herbalist prayed for her as he receive the envelope.
“So baba, now that you have helped me to win the battle over my mother-in-law together with the heart of my husband, there is another important assignment, I want to give you and this time with a good pay” Clara said to him.
“You are doing well my daughter, tell me anything you want me to do for you, I will surely answer you, there is nothing my gods cannot do” The herbalist assured her.
“Hmm, you know that am the gentle type and don’t cause problem nor fight with people but…” Clara started crying as she was talking to the herbalist, she did this intentionally to attract pity from him.
“Stop crying my daughter, you don’t need to cry here, tell me anything you need, it shall be granted” The herbalist assured her.
“You know that am the legal wife of my husband, but yesterday a woman showed up and was claiming that she had a child for my husband, ahh, Baba she came with thugs and heavy men, they entered into the house and beat me, ahh, Baba, she beats me a lot that when my husband wanted to help me, she slapped him, Baba help me, don’t let me suffer” Clara wept
“What!!, you mean someone attacked you while am still alive” The herbalist shouted.
“Yes, baba, to make the matter worst, she said she gives me just three days and that if I did not release my husband to her, she will kill me before three days lapses” Clara starting crying again with mucus coming out from her nose.
“That’s enough my daughter, someone has the guts to challenge you, No, instead of you to die, she will be the one to replace you. You just have to do just little things” The Herbalist said to her looking at her face.
“Like what baba” she asked.
“Try and bring her foot print, what I mean is that bring the sand of where she passed, then we would use it against her. We shall curse the four elements of the world to work against her, the water, the air, the earth and the land..we shall make It work against her” the herbalist said to her and assured her to calm down.
“Baba, is that all, just the sand of where she pass, then no problem, it is done you shall hear from me” Clara said to him.
” before you go, what is her name and her mother’s name” The herbalist asked.
“Her name is Kemisola while that of her mother is Asabi” Clara Yizef Stories said to him.
“She will die before the three days lapse, just watch out” The herbalist said to her.
” I trust you baba, and I will surprise you more with better things , I will bring a car this time around and build you a better house ” Clara assured the man and bade him goodbye.
*************************
“Sister Kemisola, you have to be strong now so that we can hold tonight vigil, it is very important” The prayer leader begged her
“Am trying my best but my head aches me a lot” she replied.
” the devil is roaring like a lion seeking who to devour, you have to be watchful, those that are after us do not sleep o, It is we Christians that are lazy o” The prayer leader advise her.
“Lazy as how, with all the prayers we have been praying since, sir, if that is how it works I should be in my husband house by now” Kemisola said to him.
” don’t be weary, you have to be strong, the wicked ones can keep vigils in other to destroy someone’s life but we are the one that always find excuse, we love to please this mortal body. The wicked ones would go to their meetings every night without complain but we are here complaining about what is wrong with us” The leader said to Kemisola.
She was having a terrible headache that night but she had to manage to stand and pray but her mind was not with them. She wanted to sleep.
*******************
“This is our second day of our fasting and not seeing the sun nor the moon in order to destroy Kemisola and Clara, now I want us all be vigilant so that we can repel every attack from them but before that let us check the level of their prayer altar so that we can know when to strike.” Iya Labake said to the members while she moved to the demonic mirror to see what Kemisola was doing.
“Very good, she is sleeping, others are still preparing for prayer, let us launch our attack now and see if they can confront it.
” I invoke the spirit of madness, go now and visit the house of Kemisola ” Iya Labake shouted.
As Kemisola was sleeping, the holy spirit appeared to her and touch her to wake up and pray.
“Kemisola, heard the voice of the angel, you are in the midst of foes, watch and pray” the angel said tapping her left foot.
She woke up, yawn, went to urinate and went to bed. She was sleeping when the spirit of madness came into her room to unleash the assignment.
“Impossible!!! You can’t, where are you from” The voice thundered.
“Me!!!, I am madness” the spirit reply.
The spirit took its club and was about to hit Kemisola on her head….
