” RECKLESS REKKY”
©️Opeyemi O.Akintunde
Rekky sat in her car really pissed at Martins.
“ Why would he be watching porn?” She questioned herself
“ Did you give him another option?” She replied herself
“ He should have learnt how to control himself!” She argued
“ Have you been controlling yourself?”
“ Wh@tëver! It’s his business!” She concluded.
She engaged the gear into the drive mode and drove out of the compound. She and Osmond were going to the beach together and she was not going to allow Martins ruin it for her.
Martins stood by the window, watching Rekky disappear. He really loved Rekky but that love had been stabbed a million times over.
Chioma was the woman for him! He had lost the first opportunity he had with her. The Universe had given him the second chance with her. He was not going to lose it because of Rekky.
He picked up his phone and dialed Chioma’s line.
“ So what are you doing today?” He said
“ Today is Saturday! I stay at home”
“I am coming over!”
“Why?”
“ You don’t want me at your place!”
“ You are a married man Sir!” She said laughing
“ So a married man can not visit his female friend?”
“ His Single female friend who he may still have feelings for! No sir, I will pass on this one!”
“ I am on my way already!”
“ You don’t know my house!”
“ Really? And you believe that?”
“ Even if you know my house, I won’t give you the PIN to enter the estate!”
“ Ok, then I will stay at the gate till nightfall. Let’s see if you can be that wicked!” Martins hung up. He knew Chioma was living in one of the expensive estates in town. He didn’t know her house for certain but he was going to try his luck. All his flirting with her had always been at her office or restaurants.
He rushed off to bathroom.
********
Mayowa was deep in sleep. Mirabel kept watching her husband as the doctor stood close by.
Doctor Mike was a believer and as he stood close by, he was asking the Holy Spirit what was happening and what he ought to do. His excellence in medical practice could be largely attributed to his fellowship with the Holy Spirit. Whenever, he had a medical case, the HolySpirit would most times diagnose what exactly was wrong and What was the best prescription to give the patients.
“ Numbers 22:23” Doctor Mike heard the word in his Spirit….
He quickly checked his phone and it read…
“When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD standing in the road with a drawn sword in his hand, it turned off the road into a field”
He ruminated over the words but he did not understand the message in there…
“ Holy Spirit! What are you saying?”
“ Why are you standing in the way of the man on a mission, don’t be the agent of the devil standing in the way. He is not mad, he has an assignment!”
“ Mayor! On assignment? He is not a born again Christian!”
“ He is now!”
“ Ok, What do I do?”
“ Nothing for now! The sedation will wear out in another one hour. while you wait for him to come around, preach to his wife.!”
“ Ok!” Doctor Mike said out loud, which made Mirabel give him a questioning look.
“ What? What is Ok?”
“ Your husband is Ok! “
“ How do you know that?”
“ God told me!”
Mirabel took a long pause!
“ You too… you are using this Spiritualism talk. Doctor Mike, I am not an atheist, I believe in God but I am not a religious person. My husband is probably under a lot of stress and needs serious medical help. Are you able to handle it or I call someone else?” Mirabel said bluntly.
“ How on earth am I suppose to preach to her now!” Doctor Mike thought.
“ God will help me handle it, no man can prevent a man from dying , only God. Remember, We care but God Heals.”
“ Fine!”
“ Ma, I believe your husband is fine, I believe something positively striking has happened to your husband, hence the sudden change.”
“ What!”
“ I think He met the Man I met 23 years ago!”
“ Which Man?”
“ The man that Saul met on the way to Damascus!”
“ You are not making sense sir!”
“ You see, I had studied too hard that I didn’t believe in a supreme being controlling the whole earth. I felt life was just actions and consequences which is absolutely the case, but I didn’t realize that there was a supreme being who could alter anything from going parallel, even the consequences of actions, until I met Him.”
Mirabel was looking blankly..
“ Hence, even when we have lived a seemingly terrible life and we ought to get the consequences of our past terrible actions, God can give us the chance to alter the consequences we get. “
“ Why are you saying all these?”
“ I am saying it is possible what your husband said is true and he actually met with Christ, who is trying to help him alter the consequences of his actions..”
“ Are you saying, Mayor could be a Ritualist?”
“ Yes, and who knows he may have encountered Christ .”
For the first time, Mirabel relaxed to think about the possibility of Mayor being a Ritualist and the pieces were coming together…
No friends! Minimal Family contact! Tall fence! Secret Workplace!
“ My God!” Mirabel crashed into the chair beside her…
