Latest update Diary Of A Pastor's wife Grand Finale I felt a sudden urge to smile through my tears. Romance is such a wonderful thing. We were in America and it was Autumn, and the trees had grown antlers.  David had given the kids and I a surprise holiday trip. I stood by the window, admiring David and the girls playing basket ball on the small field. The Vacation house was striking, specially built for a family vacation. I walked over the balcony and caught my breath. I gaze upon a sweeping lawn, then spotted a tempting path that led past a tinkling fountain. Oak, hickory, and dogwood trees vied for space in the huge area. I imagined how beautiful the grounds would be in spring when the dogwoods were in bloom. Moments later, after he made the kids to sleep, he was right behind me. He held me backwardly and held my face with his hands. His glance blazed down at me. "Thank you for having me back my love." He whispered. For a long, unsettling moment I sens

Diary of a Pastor's wife (Part 23)

Latest update Diary Of A Pastor's Wife (part 23) Dear Diary, I rolled out of bed looking like a corpse bride. I was grudgingly wandering around the room and looking for what to wear to Church that morning. Then I noticed everywhere was calm and quiet. "Where are my children?" I asked myself. I hurriedly ran out to check and didn't find anyone at home. Then I saw a yellow sticky note on the reading desk. I opened it hastily and it read 'Breakfast set for my pregnant wife, see us in church for a welcome party. love, David.' There was something about this particular Sunday morning, it had a smell of peace, love and hope. When David broke my heart I wept, but the holy spirit led me to job 22:38 which says "thou shall decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee; and the light shall shine upon thy ways." Then I went to him and cried out my eyes, I decreed that I wanted my home back, my husband and the church we founded together, he

Diary of a Pastor's wife (Part 22)

Latest update Diary Of A Pastor's Wife (part 22) It felt like I was watching a movie, there was tension in the air. I had never seen Georgina with such countenance; She was dry faced and tensed. "I gave birth to you my son" she said in a shaky voice. "Is the holy bishop still in denial?" Lizzy asked sarcastically. Everyone was in shock, we all placed a  gaze on Georgina. "This was meant to be a secret I was gonna die with. I promised my mother not to reveal it to anyone. My mother believed that bishop Georgina did her a huge favor by sending her to school and taking adoption of her son." "Jesus Christ!" David exaggerated. "Georgina was afraid that my mother was going to come back for her son afterwards. when you were 2years old David, she took you to a place in India called  Hussan Takri's shrine in India and casted a spell on you. She lied to her husband that she was going for an international christian women's

Diary of a Pastor's wife (Part 21)

Latest update Diary Of A Pastor's Wife (part 21) It was raining. I can't remember the exact time it was, but I knew it was midnight. I felt something on my face, and tried to pull it off, before realizing it was an oxygen tube. Lizzy held my hands to make sure I don't make further movements. "You will be fine." she whispered. Then I noticed that I wasn't lying on my bed, the mattress was softer. There were lots of people in the room, I tried to open my eyes forcefully. "she is opening her eyes." A tiny loud voice said. My stomach dropped, and I could hear my heartbeat come to an abrupt halt on the monitor. Then my eyes caught up with David, he was carrying Mfon in his arms, he had bandage tied around his neck. I stared at him in complete utter and disbelief as my heart picked again. Lizzy's eyes were wet with anger and tears. I knew she wanted to tell me something, a lot of things. "you will be fine bestie." she s

Diary of a Pastor's wife (Part 20)

Latest update Diary Of A Pastor's Wife (part 20) When Lizzy hung up the call, I became afraid as my heart fluttered. I felt like my problems got bigger by the day. "mummy, what did you do to my daddy?" Teye asked, as she gave me a leveled gaze. "Don't ask me silly questions!" I yelled. I was feeling so down and unhappy, nothing could calm me at that moment. There was heaviness in my heart. A combination of sadness, worries and regret. I wished I had a time machine where I could turn back to the time where this conflict all started. From when I left for America, to when I went to report David to the police. "mummy stop, we are home!" Mfon said shrilly. I sighed and took a reverse immediately. My mind had gone far in thoughts. **** That night, sleep ran away from my eyes. when I closed my eyes, all I saw was David brutally beaten by the rude police men. My thoughts were interrupted by my phone, and my sister Abigail was the ca

Latest update Diary Of A Pastor's Wife (part 19) I began to slightly calm down and nodding my head. I took a deep breath before answering all the questions the police men asked, my heart was beating like I was facing my worse fears. "Madam you say na this pastor dey disturb you?" the awkward looking police officer asked, he was holding David's photograph in his hands. "yes, he harasses me everywhere I go. last week, he stalked me at my daughters school." "na tiv him be." another police officer said. "no. na kidnappers dey follow people like that, when they know that you get fine motor, they follow you everywhere. " "madam, do you know the man or where he lives." another officer asked. "he is my ex husband." I said, my voice faltered as I brought my head down a bit. The police officers looked at me with their mouth wide open. "You mean am madam?" "yes. My ex husband " "s

Diary of a Pastor's wife (Part 18)

Latest update Diary Of A Pastor's Wife (part 18) The kids looked out of the window as we drove into our new compound. "Our new house is fine mommy." Teye whispered faintly. "yes it is." I loved that the house was far from the main road. I loved that it was far from all the bright lights and noise, far from anyone who knew David. The estate securities were excitedly sociable. "Wehcome madam oh....yor shilren are too bitifu." they said excitedly in different tones as they opened the main "thank you." I said calmly. As we alighted from the car, the sight of our new house was peaceful and fascinating to look at. The walls were made of brisks. And they were coconut trees flanking on the front yard. The kids and I began to pack out our boxes and food stuffs from the car. "mommy, this place is far from school." Mfon broke the silence. "You won't be schooling there anymore. I will register you and your siste

Diary of a Pastor's wife (Part 17)

Latest update Diary Of A Pastor's Wife (part 17) Mfon and Teye began to push their boxes to the center of the room, just as I ordered them to do. It was the easiest work their tiny hands could do. "Mummy why are we packing?" Teye asked. "The day after tomorrow, we will be leaving for the mainland." I said, folding the clothes into a basket. "but mummy our school is on the Island." Mfon said. I nodded silently. "yes I know. no more questions, let's start packing. you both should gather all your clothes, a truck will be here to start packing." They continued to push the drawers and their boxes with all their might. After few moments, the kids paused. "mommy we are tired." Mfon said weakly, giving a childish attitude. "me too mummy." Teye said. "Let's all rest a bit." Teye laughed and blew an exaggerated kiss back. Mfon and I joined in the laugh, it was a meaningless laugh, Teye ma

Diary of a Pastor's wife (part 16)

Latest update Diary Of A Pastor's Wife (Part 16) Red glowing eyes stared back at me, and I tried to see clearly who it was. Metal claws closed over my forearm tightly, and I whimpered. Then I noticed he looked like David, the man with the red eye had his height and shape of his head. Then the strange being suddenly turned into my mother inlaw. The fear finally began to set in as my heart pumped. "Ekomobong!" Her deep voice rumbled and echoed at the same time. I woke up immediately sitting upright in shock, it was a dream. The bed was soft under me, but the covers were thickly hot. I was sweating through my pyjamas shirt. I looked at the other bed, Teye was sleeping peacefully wrapped in her pink mickey mouse duvet. My heart eased a bit, I kept repeating in my head that it was only a nightmare. "Mummy are you okay?" Mfon asked, her voice was soft and tender, I held her into my arms. ""yes, I am fine my love."  I said as I pulled her un

Diary of a Pastor's wife (Part 15)

Latest update Diary Of A Pastor's Wife(part 15) I remember the pain in her eyes more than anything else. Then I remembered the pains I went through when my husband left me for her. I imagined her in bed with David, I imagined him kissing her and making love to her. I thought to myself, what if the baby was his, what if the baby wasn't SS genotype? What if? Then she wouldn't have been here kneeling right in front of me. She wouldn't have been preparing for the wedding, happily preparing to marry David. Bitter resentment crawled inside of me, making my anger boil. Part of me wanted to just beat her up, scream obscenities at her,  and send her out of the house. Then the other part  wanted to forgive her and let her go. Then my heart reminded me that God rewrote my story, it was up to me to make it beautiful. When I finally tried to recollect myself, breaking away from the hurtful thoughts that I had been in. I took a good look at Ifeoma, my fist literarily cle

Diary of a Pastor's wife (Part 14)

Latest update Diary Of A Pastor's Wife(part 14) It took me few minutes to compose myself and face her. "What do you want from me Ifeoma? What else do you want?" I asked her meanly, while she looked at me with stoned expressionless face. "I came here to clear my mind to you, to confess and seek for your forgiveness madam." my heart was beating at a faster rate than ever. "ghen, ghen! what more do you have to say? we all know you slept with pastor David."  Lizzy said and shook her head sympathetically. "There is more." "don't tell us you used juju or charms on pastor." Lizzy asked with her eyes wide open. "tufiakwa, I am a christian, I can't do that." "if I hear! you? hmmm. what you did to your madam is what a witch can do, it's same as using juju of course? talk please time is going." Ifeoma looked at me, and then Lizzy. "I was in love with Usman when I first came here. He lo

Diary of a Pastor's wife (Part 13)

Latest update Diary Of A Pastor's Wife(part 13) I stared at my reflection in the mirror, my stomach was beginning to protrude, I rubbed my hands on it, and felt a tiny kick, there was deep joy in my heart, the one I had never felt before. The news about David's separation from Ifeoma spread like a wildfire. The night was still young, and I had just returned with a new Sim card. I wanted to change my life, change my world and rebrand it for the holy spirit to come dwell with us forever. By this time, I had made up my mind to sign the divorce papers and move to America with the kids. My stomach was protruding, and I didn't want anyone to see me, especially the church members of Hills ministries. "I thought you said divorce is a sin?" Lizzy asked shrilly, looking aghast. "I have gotten what I wanted." "Don't say these things Ekom, You prayed for this moment, you fasted, wept to God. And now it is finally here, why do you want to j

"I am going to be a real aunty for the first time in my life Ekom." she said tearily and smiled brightly at the same time. "You are an aunty already mbok, don't let the kids hear that." Lizzy called at that moment. "Ekom, I am very close to your house, I had a long day already at work, so I decided to just come give you the injection at home and then tell you about something I discovered at the hospital." "I hope all is well Lizzy?" "very well, don't be scared." I ended the call. few minutes later, I heard the horn of Lizzy's Car. "She is here." Abigail said and immediately stood up to fix the throw pillows in place. Not Long Lizzy walked in, smelling of vanilla body spray. she was wearing jeans, a boot and huge cream colored sweater that came halfway down her thighs. She franticall

Latest update *Diary of a pastor's wife (part 11)* I had been desperate to leave Lizzy's office since the laboratory scientist took my blood. While I watched Lizzy surf with her laptop, my mind had gone far as to the kind of diseases or sickness the lab test might result. "I was thinking that I should go pick the kids and come back for the result." I said. "No hold on a bit, the lab guy will be done soon." moments later, there was a knock on the door. "Come right in." Lizzy said shrilly. The lab guy appeared like a ghost, leaving my heart to tremble, I watched him handing a white envelope to Lizzy. "Done?" Lizzy asked politely. "Yes Doctor" Lizzy opened the envelop hastily and I tugged on my ear thoughtfully. "What's the result?" I asked, still tugging my hands in my ears. Lizzy shook her head and stared at me for a while. "Hmmm... Ekom it's malaria and typhoid jare." She ha

Latest update *Part 10* Lizzy whipped off her lab coat and threw it on the floor. I must have made a face because she looked at me and laughed. "I am so tired Ekom." She said, while getting water from a dispenser." "Obviously." I said meanly. She gulp down the water and then took a deep breathe. "you know I haven't seen you since you returned, it's been 5months now. what has been happening? you look really different." "nothing much. David is seeking for a divorce." "grant him. After all he has a son now from his maid. the baby falls sick almost every single day. I am tired of treating him." She reeled off, while trying to put on another lab coat."

Latest update Diary Of A Pastor's Wife (part 9) Outside the sky was gloomy. Heavy clouds were ready to drop down rainfall. I heard a roll of thunder, a storm was coming, it came with heavy rainfall. In the midst of this was beautiful set of well dressed choristers ministering on the podium. The singing was louder, and then suddenly I couldn't really hear them anymore, because of the heavy downpour. Ushers rushed to close the doors and louvres. And while the ministration was still going on, a young lady dressed in same uniform as the ushers whispered to my ears. "Good evening ma, please your name is on the list of women who will speak today." But I didn't respond, I only nodded. After series of prayer points and Singing, A few women of God whom I had association with in the past spoke before my turn. "Ladies, please a round of applause for an award winning speaker, a woman of God, and a motivational speaker, Mrs Ekom David." My heart tre

Latest update *Diary Of A Pastor's Wife (part 8)* I remembered our vows, I remembered the way he held my hands and said to me that ours will be for better for worse. I remembered the way he preached, the way he talked about God, the way I stood and nodded in support of my husband. I remembered the last time we made love. I remembered his cold dark eyes, how he glanced at me, and kissed me so passionately. For twelve years, I loved him wholeheartedly, prayed with him, and prayed for him. I remembered my sweat, the evangelism, how I convinced people to join the church so we could make a large congregation. These thoughts made a shiver run down my spine. I became sick instantly, as Abigail, the kids and I watched him break our wedding frame. He ordered the boys to burn them into ashes. "David you are a bastard! man of God my foot! years back, you almost died when my sister refused to marry you. Now look, the devil has knocked your head again!" Abigail scream

Diary of a Pastor's wife (Part 7)

Diary Of A Pastor's Wife (part 7)* Abigail  stared at me right in the face, as I narrated all that has been happening to me. She is my immediate younger Sister, who is a stunt feminist and very independent. "Sis, Why did you tell him that you will be patient? you should have granted the divorce and become free."  Abigail clucked and sighed loudly. "I am people's mentor and role model. A lot of young women in the church look up to me. I have to live a life worth emulating. what will people say if I get divorce and still stand on the church podium to preach marriage and love?" I asked looking at her like I demanded a pity. "This is what you women always say. last week in Ibadan, a lady called Modupe was brutally beaten by her husband, she died." Her voice got a bit emotional as she continued. "she didn't tell anyone of what she was going through. She thought things were going to change. she thought that one day Jesus was gonna com

Diary of a Pastor's wife (Part 6)

*Diary Of A Pastor's Wife (part 6)* The cool air felt heavy against my bare arms, as if they were holding onto raindrops that were reluctant to fall. It was a cold Sunday evening, I sat comfortably under the comfort of my children's duvet, while I watched them sleep. Then I heard familiar voices in the sitting room. David and Ifeoma were back from church. "Don't worry, she won't do anything to you. Take off your jacket, let's go inside." David Instructed, serious faced as they entered the sitting room. Ifeoma sat quietly on the couch. Her heart skipped a bit when she saw me appear in the sitting room, immediately she sensed my watchful eyes, she became bold and confident. "You should let me be please madam Ekom. it is not my fault that pastor wants me." she said in a shaky tone. "Get prepared for where God will be taking you to Ifeoma. Very soon, you will be so ashamed of yourself, God has revealed to me how such a day will be.&quo

*Diary of A pastor's Wife (part 5)* He sneaked into the children's bedroom while I was about to pray. The imagery of how he sneaked into Ifeoma's room was now clear, but it didn't hurt me anymore. "Baby.....Please can I see you?" He said as his voice trailed off. I stood up gently and followed him to the sitting room. I found myself holding my breath, I folded my hands in my lap and waited. "i have missed you, despite all of these. I am sorry for the way mom talked to you, she is only acting of concern for me. I am her only child." "So you are going to marry Ifeoma after she puts to birth?" I asked in a low tone. There were sadness in my eyes. He pulled me close and began to kiss me softly. "I feel like we are doing this for the very first time." I admitted softly. My voice a broken whisper as I gave him my whole body. Now my limbs entwined with his, it was a joy unparalleled to have the freedom to slide my hands do

Diary of a Pastor's wife (Part 4)

*Diary of A pastor's Wife (part 4)* My mother inlaw visited.  I didn't know why she came home that evening, but I had a feeling David might have told her that I was back from America. After my father inlaw died some years ago, she took over the twelve branches of Hills of grace ministries. She accused every pastor In each branch for killing her husband, and arrested everyone of them. Hills of grace ministry used to be Church of Jesus ministries, but she and her only son David (my husband) had the church changed with new pastors and members. Georgina being a boss lady wanted everything to be done in her own way at all times. The church members referred to her as the queen mother. She was bossy, overruling, and very authoritative. "I heard you were back Ekom." Her voice sounded slightly rough as though some unexpected emotions had partially locked her throat. "Yes mom." I replied softly. "I came here for a lot of reasons. Number one; the

Diary of a Pastor's wife (Part 3)

*Diary of A pastor's Wife (part 3)* I wanted to talk to David. When I knew he was home I decided to go to our bedroom. "May I come in?" My expression inscrutable, I walked into the room when I noticed that someone was having a bath, without waiting for a reply. Then I saw David on the bed, he was almost half naked, partly covered with the duvet. He stared at me, slightly muzzy headed after being woken abruptly. "We have to talk." I said, almost whispering. "I know." he said. "Who is in the bathroom?" "oh, it's Ifeoma." "Ifeoma now uses our bathroom?" I looked at David and suddenly wished the look in his eyes meant guilt and shame. "Yes. She is having my baby." "I am aware David. But why have you taken yourself so down?" "I am a human being Ekom!" He said huskily, raising his voice. "So I am what? Am I not a human being too? I went to America with the church&#

Diary of a Pastor's wife (Part 2)

Diary of a Pastor's wife (part 2) I was still devastated with the thoughts of Ifeoma and my husband David. After I watched the kids sleep, I strolled into the kitchen to make myself a cup of tea. Just after I poured the milk in a mug, I felt someone was in the kitchen too. I looked back, quickly surprised. "Welcome madam." She said, almost stuttering. I slowly poured the hot water from the flask into the mug, stirred it a bit and sipped. Then I noticed a protruded stomach, she had tried to cover it with her handbag. "Are you pregnant Ifeoma? you look it." I asked in a soft tone. Her expression was in earnest. "Yes madam, didn't pastor tell you? I am pregnant for him, we are expecting a child." Her voice had a tremor in it, even though her face was bold and firm. Her words were like the score of a sharpened blade across my heart. I sensed the wound gape open even before she'd finished speaking. "You were sleeping with my
