“Ma I know you won’t believe me if I tell you, so I’ll just keep quîet.” ” Jesus Christ! what the heck is going on here?!” Unity scrèamed in terror as the echo of our voice jolted her awake. “Jennifer will you start tàlking?”‘ his wife thundered. “Why do you make things so tough, honey? I promised we would talk about this later, as you can see, your voice had roused our daughter from sleep.”
You this girl, don’t want to talk abi,” She slápped me hard on my left cheek and yelled at me. “Okay mummy I’ll talk please.., I’ll talk!” I replied her with quivering lips and sobbing at the same time “I’m all ears. Tell us what you and my husband has been doing here because the other day you came, you went to the bathroom and you said my husband brought you. Seems there’s something fishy between the two of you that I’m not aware of.” “Jennifer start talking na, it’s just to talk o, speak up. please say something stop putting yourself distress” her daughter exclaimed from behind.
Pastor was just confused and silent while observing the whole scenario. He don’t even know where to start with because his wife had already shun him. I was stuttering, I was short of words. “Don’t get me pissèd off. Better continue.” her wife exclaimed. “Ma it all started the very first time I was ill when your husband keeps pressuring me to come to his office. Each time I visit him, he would get lust in his own thoughts and would start doing weird things to me, he has assaulted me several times, and has even kissed me, in short he did alot of awful things that I can’t even made mention of.”
“He insisted on meeting me repeatedly because he wanted to talk to me in private. He even once asked me out, but I turned him down. I’m not sure why he sometimes took me to your home, but he did. I frequently have strange dreams about him ” I complained to her while wiping my left palm across both of my eyes. Do you really believe everything she is telling you?” Leonard protested. “Are you crázy?, just shût up and let her continue.” his wife roared at him like an enraged lion.
Unity turned towards him “Daddy I don’t understand you, what affair were you having with her? I can’t even imagine a pastor like you going on a date with this girl that I’m a year older than. Do you even realise you’re married arrrggh!!!?” “He almost rãppêd me, he was the one that came to my bed, he wore a strange mask making it difficult for me to identify his face while we were asleep However, I was able to regnized you when I saw this ring on your left hand, which you are still wearing right now. The story would’ve been different if I hadn’t yelled” I added.
A smack echoed immediately behind my left ear before I heard it, and when I looked, I saw that Leonard’s wife had given him the sláp..
“My dad will kîll him if he gets to know about this please let’s forgive him’ I knelt down and sobbed hysterically while holding her left leg and pleaded with her. “You know what? I married you because of the person I thought you were, not knowing you were a lion prowling beneath a sheep. You are heãrtless.”
“In short I’ll not be the one to deal with you. Her dad would do that I trust him for that. I’m calling him right now. Uselêss pastor. You’ve ruined your marriage already” she said sympathetically as tears continued to fall down her cheeks. She picked up her phone and started calling my dad while she wiped her tears away gradually with her wrapper. Unity burst down in tears as well.
As this was going on, Leonard was using every tactic at his disposal to convince his wife that he would change and that it wouldn’t repeat itself. But his wife bluntly refused and went ahead to call my dad but he didn’t pick up. “My dad received a call from a colleague telling him that his brother had an accidènt and had gone with my mother yesterday evening. It’s late mum, and I don’t think he’s in the mood to take calls,” I said her.
“Honey please forgive me, now I’ve realized my mistakes, please forgive me and I promise you that this is never going to repeat itself, please” Leonard bowed his head and begged. “But what will you be looking for in a little girl like Jennifer nkwa, even my youngest sister is far older than her? what is it she’s having that I don’t have? or is it because her breãsts is bigger than mine? Why are men like this?!” She said to her as she crossed her hands across her waist.
She continued “I’ve known her dad long before now, even before he got married. Her dad was once a military man before he started working in a company. Do you know what her dad would do to you if he finds out? I’m just forgiving you because at times people do make mistakes. And marriage is all about trust. Don’t make me loose my trust for you. I’ve made some mistakes numerous times and they would serve as life’s experience. You can get up. but don’t let this nonsênse to repeat itself. You’re lucky I later changed my mind because I was planning to leave the house with unity tomorrow morning.”
“Everyone wipe your tears okay, unity and Jenny, you can go to bed now. I will handle this issue with Leonard, Jennifer don’t worry he’s not going to disturb you again. Tomorrow you can go and meet your brother. While your parents are away, I think it will be up to you to get him ready for school tomorrow morning. It serves no purpose for me to begin informing them of this when they already have another matter to resolve. Please be assured that we will see your parents very soon okay. Goodnight” her wife said escorted us to the bed and left.
To cut everything short, ever since the day her wife cautioned him, Leonard fully concentrated on his church’s mission and has grown spiritually to the point where everyone likes him and the church has made great strides with lots of overwhelming testimonies. As for me, I have carried on with my life as usual, took good care of my brother, and my parents have also expressed their happiness that my uncle did not perish in the surgery he had sequel to the auto crash. He can now talk and he’s yet to be discharged. I maintained a very close relationship with unity and our friendship was like Romeo and Juliet. Thanks for taking time to read this my story of how pastor Leonard treated me and how it all ended. Share to someone out there let them also read and benefit something from. Love you all ❤️❤️
