Did you Miss out on Agent Jeff And The Governor's Daughter Part 9
So, u
see my dear, dir’s nobody without a past, but it doesn’t matter how ugly ur
past is, a bright future awaits u if u are in Christ Jesus. said Mrs Williams.
Now, to ur situation. She continued..We must find a means by which ur parents
would hear about it, n then we take it up from there.
Let me
talk to my husband about it, as i can’t handle ds alone, then i’ll get back to
u. When she left, i started thinking. i was so blessed n encouraged by her
testimony, at least to learn dt someone with such an ugly past could turn out
to be a pastor with ds motherly love n gesture is so amazing. Her words made me
to develop a kind of courage n inner confidence coupled with faith dt God who
made a way for her, is still dir to make a way for me too. Again, i remembered
my dad!.
I
sighed. Next weekend, he would be marking his 60th birthday, n expected me to
be dir. How would i do it Lord? Later in d evening, Mrs Williams came to me n
said “I’m sorry, i had to discuss ur case with my husband, its not my usual way
of handling matters, but in a situation like ds, he just have to be involved.
Like i told u earlier, i can’t handle it alone. “No problem ma”. I said. “Now,
we have decided to go with u to Lagos to attend ur dad’s birthday, n thereby,
use d opportunity to break d news to him n other members of d family.”
I could
hear my heart beating very fast, in fact, i almost fainted.
“When
exactly is d birthday?” she asked.
“It’s
friday ma”. I answered.
“Oh!.I
thought its saturday”.
“D
birthday falls on friday, n he doesn’t want to shift it to Saturday, since
dir’s a public holiday dt Friday”. I said. “Dt’s beautiful then, we’ll leave on
friday morning, grace d occasion with him n break d news later in d evening
when all d guests have left.” And, dt was just what we did.
My dad
n everybody was shocked!. “Adesewa temi? …No it’s a lie!. How can i believe
ds?. How come?. How did it happen?.
Where
would i hide my face in
d church?, among my christian friends?. What will i
tell my pastor?. Ahahahah Yetunde!. I never expected ds from u. Oh my God!!.”
My mum
was just weeping. My sisters n i were weeping too. Later, my dad said “Go with
ur pastor o, i dont want to see u. U’ve put me to shame. I dont want to set my
eyes on u”. We all knelt down n started begging him with tears flowing in our
eyes, but he declined. He was too hurt. I knew why it was so painful for him.
He was so proud of me, always treating me as his only daughter. At a time,
Pastor Williams excused him to his room, where they spoke for about an hour.
Pastor Mrs also took my mum to d corridor for a private talk.
By d
time they came back, my dad was a bit calm, but i could see he was still
boiling. D next day, i left with d Williams to Oyan.
My dad
never called since then, it was only mummy dt was calling me from time to time
to ask about my welfare n to encourage me. I never knew she was dt loving. I
was staying with my pastor n his family as Mrs Williams didn’t allow me to go
back to my house.
When we
came back from Lagos, Mrs Williams said “Now call Bode tell him to come home n
see u, n dt u are not going to terminate d pregnancy, let’s hear what he will
have to say.” What was his response?
I
called Bode, n put on d phone’s speaker so Mrs Williams could hear our
conversation.
Me:
Hello Bode.
Bode:
Hello,how are u?.
Me: I’m
fine.
Bode:
What about dt thing?. Have u removed it?.
Me:
That’s why i’m calling u.
Bode:
Hun Hun?.
Me: I
can’t do it, n i want u to come home so we can talk.
Bode:
What else do we want to talk about?..Ehn?..U know how things are with me?.Is it
my mum who had not been able to continue with her trading dt will be taking
care of a pregnant lady? What if they got to know in church?, what do u think
will happen?. Think of ur parents too, how will they take it?. Pls, let’s get
rid of ds pregnancy n continue with our lives.. Please, i beg of u.
Me:
Fine.. but we still need to sort out some things. When are u coming home?.
Bode:
Exam is fast approaching n i need to study, more so, i have no transport fare.
Me: I
will take care of dt. Pls come on friday, u can get back to school on saturday
if u so wish. How about dt?.
Bode:
Okay, let’s see how things will be during d week. But hear ds, if u refuse to
remove dt thing, i will deny it o, bcs u know how i’ve been struggling since
all these days, u know everything o. I hung up.
Mrs
Williams heard everything. Before i left for school on Friday morning, Mrs
Williams told me to go to my house after d school hours as Bode could come as
promised. She however told me to send a text message to her as soon as he comes
in.
I went
straight to d corper’s quarters after school, tidied up my room which was in a
mess. I was expecting Bode tru out d afternoon, he didn’t show up. I called his
number but couldn’t get tru to him, so i guessed he was on d way.
Finally,
around 6.40pm. He called me, informing me dt he was just getting to Oyan, but
wanted to see his mum first, after which he’ll come n see me.
I
quickly sent an sms to my pastor’s wife telling her what he told me. Bode came
in around 8pm. Few minutes after he came in, Pastor n Mrs Williams also came
in. He was so surprised to see them. We both greeted them n sat down. Bode kept
on wondering what d meeting was all about. Pastor Williams said “Well,
Bode,there’s nothing new under heaven any longer.
We’ve
heard everything dt happened btw you and Sewa. I as a person, i’m not happy
about it at all, n so is my wife. but in a situation like ds, we just have to
leave everything to d hands of God. So, i want u to tell us now, who is
responsible for ds pregnancy?.”
After a
long pause, he murmured “Its me sir”. “Dt’s good. I thought u’ll deny it, n i
also learnt u are suggesting abortion.. Not ds one, n not here, so take ur mind
off dt. Ds baby has come to stay. Is dt taken?.”
“Ye-ye-yes
sir”. He answered. “Now, let’s go to ur mum’s place.”
We got
into d car n left for Bode’s family house. When his mum heard what happened,
she couldn’t lift up her head. She just kept quiet. She didn’t say anything tru
out. After leaving d place, i felt so bad. I wondered what was going on in d
mind of Bode’s mum. Guess the next thing Bode’s mum said?
To Be
Continued Tomorrow… Watch out!!!
