EPISODE 36 (FINAL)

Sandra and Rose stood silently shedding tears of joy seeing their daughters so happy, “I wish you can see this with me John, why did you have to leave us so soon” Rose said and burst out crying.

“It’s okay please don’t do this. If Prisca sees this now you’ll automatically ruin her happy mood” Sandra said hugging her and Rose sighted Manfred coming inside the hall.

“Please excuse me, Rose said and approached him..

“Manfred you came?” Rose asked.

“Yes I did, I just wanted to see how my son will disobey me” he replied.

“Please I am begging you, let the children be. They are two different people from us”, Rose said and he looked at her.

“Were you crying?” He asked and she cleaned her face.

“No, she replied and sniffed.

“You should know you can’t hide anything from me” He said and left Rose.

“Where are you going to?” She asked afraid he wanted disrupting the party as he was approaching the stage.

Manfred went to Christian and tapped him on his shoulder, he turned and was surprised to see his father.

“How… I mean how come?” Christian asked.

“That should not be the first thing you should say to your father” Manfred said.

“Dad please can we talk about this outside?” Christian asked.

“Why not here? After all is it not this place you violated my instructions?” Manfred asked.

“Dad please don’t do this”, Christian said and he smiled.

“Attention everyone” Manfred shouted clapping his hands.

“Dad no what are you doing?” Christian said trying to stop him.

“I am so happy and i sincerely want to thank everyone of you who honored the invitation to celebrate our daughters who is celebrating life today. Please clap for yourselves”, Manfred said and people clapped.

“I know most of you might not know me, but I am the father of one of the potential husband to be soon, Christian. Its so good to see my son taking this bold step, I tell you marriage is one institution only the brave goes into. And I want to say a big congratulation to him and the love of his life Prisca my daughter. May your home be blessed and colourful”, Manfred dropped smiling at them as everyone clapped.

“I know what you were thinking but i hope you are relaxed now. Every stunt I brought up in your relationship was to see if you will stand the test and I wanted to see if the love was real. I love you so much son, and i didn’t want to see you hurt. Prisca can you forgive me?” Manfred asked as her lips was shaking already.

“Thank you so much sir, thank you” Prisca shouted hugging him and Christian followed.

“You don’t know how happy you’ve made me dad, I love you too” Christian said.

“I can’t do anything to hurt you knowing you were your mom favourite. Before she breathe her last, her last words were “please take care of Christian, don’t make him cry”. I wasn’t sure i will be able to do that, I had to send you over to your mom people knowing they will shower you with the love you need. She’ll be so proud of you wherever she is Now” Manfred said and Christian nodded trying to fight his tears.

“Can i ask you something dad? And I want you to be sincere with me”, Christian said.

“Go on, Manfred replied.

“Did you for once love my mom knowing that you were compelled to marry her against your wish” Christian asked.

“At first i didn’t love your mom, but when we got married i held unto the teaching of my mom to respect her no matter what. She was a loving, submissive and understanding woman every man can ever have, and that made me never hurt her or disrespect her. But when she died, I realised i was a fool who refused to admit that i was already in love with her for the 13 years she stood by my side. For that reason i remain unmarried despite you all were still very small, I did that to honour and prove to her that i did love her for loving me even when i didn’t” Manfred said and hugged christian whose face was bathed with tears.
…………….

And the last

“To add to that, I also want to thank everyone of you who came out to celebrate I and my friend despite the short notice.
And to my lovely husband to be, my mom and my dad…… Yes you just heard me say my Dad, my lovely bestie and her soon to be husband…. Everybody I love you all and may God richly and abundantly bless you” Debbie took the mic.

“Which dad? Someone in the crowd asked and Frederick smiled at that.

“I am, He came out holding Debbie.

“And I think I should introduce myself to you all but a better introduction will be done after Here. Years ago something happened between I and a beautiful girl somewhere which resulted to this angel celebrating today, though I wasn’t there and we haven’t seen for years, but somehow fate has reunited us again” Frederick said and the crowd clapped.
……………..

The night was a busy one for the two families as they gathered together at Manfred place who hosted them.

“Dad you almost gave me heartbreak over there seriously”, Christian said.

“Yes I know I saw that in your look”, he replied laughing.

“And I know this forgiveness and acceptance today covers everybody… like everyone here in this house”, Prisca said.

And Manfred understood what that means, “of course why not, dear Rose that was a stunt I put up too to test you, but sha you were real to yourself and I’m sorry if I was too harsh” Manfred said.

“Its forgotten please don’t bring it up”, Rose replied.

“So wait o all this things was going on and no one cared to inform us about it? But you know its not fair na”, Sandra said.

“No ma its not like that, we didn’t want to add to issues”, Prisca replied.

“What issues? That you were going through something and you hid it from us?” Debbie asked.

“But they have reconciled it nau and everything is alright now, that is more important I think” Gideon came in.

“I know but at least they should have let us know, imagine if Sir Manfred had actually put a negative stunt there, we would have been more lost” Debbie said.

“But I didn’t, anyway I apologize on their behalf and I know it won’t happen again” Manfred said.

“Yea thats true, we are sorry okay” Christian added and Debbie nodded.

“So, yea I know its quite too early, but the wedding preparation will it be soon? because the way my body is burning eh you won’t understand” Frederick asked and they laughed.

“Its too soon please, Prisca said.

“No I don’t think so, my parents will be coming down ending of next month, so I think we have to start preparing so they’ll join in the celebration. What do you think?” Gideon asked.

“Ending of next month isn’t bad for me”, Rose replied.

“But its going to be a mass wedding, the two friends must be joined on that day too, who agrees with me?” Christian brother asked.

“Yea that’s necessary, they will be joined on that date too” Frederick supported and Prisca looked at Christian.

“But we are not ready for this”, she said.

“In terms of finances for it? Don’t worry the bill will be on me”, Manfred replied.

“Us rather, because every budget we will do won’t be for one but for the two, we are going to do it as a family” Frederick added.

“Yes I agree with you, one family. Cheers to that” Gideon said raising the glass which everyone did too happily.
…………….

Gideon family was informed about it, and they took the responsibility of dressing both the bride and the groom traditionally and in church.

Prisca and Debbie couldn’t believe it when they found out their wears will be brought down from Canada.

“This isn’t happening right?” Prisca asked as everyone volunteered to do something to make sure the day become a success.
…….

Few weeks later the D-day finally came.

The tradition was done in separate places as the two ladies were not from the same place but the whole community felt the impact of the wedding.

The church did a mass wedding, joining them with 2 others who wanted doing it on that date too.

The reception of Debbie and Prisca was then joined at the same place which Matthew took that responsibility to rent a big and open place beautifully decorated to welcome them in.

The wedding was a talk in town as different dignitaries attended courtesy of their different parents who pulled the crowd.
………

1 week later Debbie and Prisca were to write their final exams which was a success, while they were celebrating, their husband’s held a surprise for them.

“What’s this? They asked taking the envelope from their husbands.

“Its time to go for our honey moon nau,” They replied.

“Oh that? No problem then” Debbie said.

“Won’t you guys open it at least to know where?” Christian asked and they slowly opened it.

“Its a lie! This is a big lie’ They shouted surprised.

“So now we are lying ba? Oh ye women of little faith”, Gideon said with a frown.

“This can’t be true nau i mean how come?” Prisca asked.

“Its not a must you all should know everything going on, just get your things prepared for we have a plane to catch up with”, Gideon replied and they screamed hugging them tight.
…………

Frederick in appreciation gifted Sandra a house and opened a business for her.

But Sandra wanted only one wish, which is to visit her parents place.

Everyone accepted to go with her, but reaching there they found out she lost her dad 2years after she ran away from home.

Her aged mother was happy when she returned home, Sandra tried saying something but her mom told her to swallow it.

“My prayer has been answered and it gives me peace that you are alive and you’re back home safely”, her aged mom said in tears as she saw Deborah.

“But you shouldn’t have run away, we are your parents and its expected of us to be angry but we wouldn’t have allowed you suffer alone with my grand child no matter what. Your father said you will come back and truly you have, oh my daughter” her aged mom continued and hugged them in tears
…………………..

Families were united.

Mistakes were repented of and corrected.

Peace was restored and they lived happily after

Hmmmmm karma,
What do you know about this tittle?
Is it really real?
What is karma?
How does karma work?

Karma describes the concept of getting back whatever you put forth— either good or bad—into the universe. By definition, it’s central to Hinduism and Buddhism for determining a person’s next worldly existence based on the ethical net of their current one. No matter what belief system you follow (or don’t!), the concept of karma can factor into your life.

“Karma is the idea that what you do comes back to you. The energy you put out is the energy you receive back, Karma can show up in different ways for different people and in different lifetimes even. So, we can’t always know or predict how and when it will come back to you.”

This begs the question: does karma really exist? Yes, karma is very real and present in our lives, even if it doesn’t quite make sense logically. “There is a mystical, magical energy to the universe that we can’t always understand from our logical human perspective,”. If you’re still feeling a bit skeptical about karma’s existence, take a retrospective look at your own life or the lives of others and you’ll likely find real life examples of karma in action.

So, why should we care about karma? The short answer is that it affects our lives and the lives of others in a major way, whether we’re aware of it or not. Understanding the concept of what you do comes back to you, helps us to aspire to act from a place of alignment and with ourselves and others. It gives us a moral compass.”
The cool thing is that we are creating our own karma as we live our lives—both good and bad.
