“You are not trying enough!!” He said and went out.

I broke down in pain what do I want to do at least I am not God that produces child. Is there anything that people are doing that God is answering them that I haven’t done.
“Why am I facing all this I am always going from fry pan to fire!! God why this?” I said as I continue crying.
The so called Ajoke was the one who prepared the dinner in the evening and my husband ate it. I was depressed because my husband is beginning to like her. He even slept in her room and while I saw left all alone in our matrimonial bed wallowing.
Hmmmmm there’s no doubt that he would have slept with that dirty girl but will I open my eyes and let this girl take over my husband? God forbid I will deal with her.
The following day, I make sure I woke up as early as possible to prepare breakfast for my husband after I finished cooking I set up the table for him and went back upstairs. On a daily basis if am cooking he would have come to the dinning table but now that he has slept in that lady’s room I didn’t even see him, one my way I saw him already dressed for work he walk pass me without saying a word I greeted him but he didn’t answer me.

Ajoke came out of her room she had a towel tired round her body and she was holding some used dishes in her hand she hissed and then went to the kitchen, tears welled up in my eyes my blood began to boil I ran into the room.
“This girl is about to take over my house!!” I said “Despite all my efforts so she had already prepare a food for my husband I am sure she must have used charm for him” I said immediately Amanda’s name came to my mind.
I got dressed and went to her shop she had lot of customers trooping in and out of her shop every minute. Immediately she sighted me she called me into her office and offer me a glass of juice.
“Good morning Amanda” I greeted her
“Good morning to you too Gloria it is so good to see you!!” She said with a smile
“See Amanda there’s fire on the mountain!!” I said instantly the smile on her face disappeared she drew her chair closer to her desk to pay more attention to me.
“What happened!!?” She asked and I explained everything to her she was shocked she couldn’t even hide it.
“Let me tell you something Gloria that lady is using charm for your husband she is ready to push you out of your house if you are not careful” she said
“I thought as much she is using charm!! But what do I want to do now?” I asked
“Well I don’t know if you will follow me to a place?” She said
“See Amanda I don’t care anywhere you take me to I have had enough of this suffering all my life!!” I said
“Now you are talking baby girl if you don’t mind let us go now because an adage says Delay is dangerous” she said and I agreed she told one of her workers to take care of the shop and we left her shop immediately she was having her own car luxuis 350 and she drove off.
After some minute drive, we arrived at a house it was located at the outskirt of the city it was just the only house there the surroundings were full of bushes and at the back is a large river.
The building was small from the outside but on getting inside it was very large the whole place was quiet there was no sign of anyone living in it.
We sat on the couch staring at nothing in particular nothing looks abnormal or odd in the room except a old tradition lamp that was on the table and was burning gently.
Suddenly a voice came from the walls of the room it sounded so terrifying and loud like an incantation I was so sacred instantly two lamps appeared beside the one that was on the table and a man in a Yoruba attire appeared laughing hysterically.
“Don’t be sacred!!” He said to me and sat on the couch facing the three lamps “This is an August visitor I received today Amanda so you finally remember me!!” He said
“No Baba it is work you understand based on the last work you did for me it works perfectly” Amanda said with a smile
“Sure it must work me Adifala !!” He boast hitting his chest and later turn to me.
“Look at me young lady if you want to send that lady out of your husband’s house just go and get her full name you see that Ajoke she said she bearing it is not her real name go and find a means to get her full name and you will see what I will do!!” He said I was surprised how he figure that out without even explaining anything to him.
