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 just let it go all of a sudden?"

"let me be. Let's not talk about this please. " I said . Lizzy felt panic at the terse tone and clipped answers.

"Have you started processing visa for the kids for your trip?"

"Not a trip, I am relocating Lizzy. I am selling off this house."

"What? Ekom how can you do a thing like that?"

"I had made up my mind Before I brought this conversation up, I had made up my mind on selling the house, and relocating. nothing can change that."

Lizzy breathe an audible sigh of relieve and stood to leave as I heard the door bell ring.

"Are you expecting someone?" Lizzy asked.

"No, my sister went back to Ibadan yesterday."

Teye ran from inside to the door.

"mummy someone is at the door." my heart went down as I watched her place the stool by the door and climbed on it to reach the bolt.

"Aunty ifeoma!" she screamed. She walked in, looking pale and weak.

I stared at her in complete and utter disbelief.

"What are you doing in my house?"

She blanches her face, losing all it colors, and then snaps her gaze to Lizzy, and then Teye, who was already staring at her in amazement.

Tears poured down her face in an uncontrollable manner

"What is this? leave my house this minute, I don't like this drama." A scream erupts my throat.

She knelt down immediately and tried to hold my feet, but I stepped backward.

Lizzy and Teye were staring at me, looks of pure shock and amazement were plastered on their faces.

When I looked at her eyes, I saw pain and regret. I saw the life of a girl who was tired of living.
