TITLE: Fighting back EPISODE: 22 AUTHOR: Queenxstar Hester rolled into bouts of laughter. Im trying so hard for my intestines not....not to disconnect. Ill bring them back together with superglue, you shouldnt bother about that. He smiled. She supported her abdomen with her palm as she rolled into yet another bout of laughter. When the day of birthday came, our friends attended and variety of female attended, you know what I mean? Hester nodded. The celebration progressed smoothly until two ladies started arguing about which was Osagie girlfriend. In no time, they were the centre of all attraction. What did Osaz do? Hester sipped her fruit wine. Ethel shook his head in remembrance with a smile. He set the video of his phone to work. A couple of minutes later, he wanted to get his video device inside the house and asked that i continued to cover the happenings. I thought he was crazy and I told him so, knowing how wild ladies fight can get especially when the reason is a man. Especially when the guy has the brains, popularity, wealth and even good looks. Hester added. Thats right. He acknowledged. He ran into the house and came out with a video recorder. Nobody attempted to separate them since it was a reality show with no fee attached. They pushed each other, hurled insults, exchanged a couple of slaps, one poured a glass of wine on the other, the other retaliated with a bowl of salad. Then, they sighted that the reason for their fight and their temper got to its peak and they both advanced towards him. With a straight face, he shunned them before going to the platform and gave a three minutes talk on public comportment . At the end he was applauded. And the girls felt like the greatest fool in the planet. Hester chirped in. I believe they will take a break from parties for two months. Hester chuckled. Thats if they are wise. He picked the fork and ate from his plate.Listen to the best part. He drank water. Later in the day, Osaz made a confession -the don, when those ladies de approach me shuuuu... ,na by Gods grace that video no fall from my hand. I bi wan ran outside. In fact ,I don die go sef , na scope I just use. He tried mimicking Osagie Thankfully there was nothing in her mouth, if not, she would have choked as she laughed heartily. ++++ **** Hester crossed her leg and looked intently at the large plasma screen TV in the sitting room. That lady acts so well and she is very beautiful. She pointed. Ethel what is her name? Ethel glared at her momentarily. You dont know her? He was sitting across her seeing the same nollywood movie. You sound like the world knows her save me. She has won the award for the best actress in Nigeria for three years back to back. She has been the exclusive face of nollywood. She has even won a Grammy. She is Africa finest and rep even international. How cute! what is her name? Natasha Williams. He studied her expression. She shook her head, the name not ringing a bell in her head. He helped her. She was Oladimeji lover for a year and half, they were even engaged to be married. They were seen together in almost every occasion until Oladimeji publicly announced their disengagement with preinforming Nat. Hester bit her lower lips to prevent herself from cursing him. Good grief. She frowned. He is ruthless Hess. She was so heartbroken, she trimmed and suspended work for a couple of months. She announced publicly that she would have to nothing to do with an intimate relationship with any guy. It was her profession and nothing more. He grinned. and then chuckled. Hester eyed him. You are not about to burst into fits of laughter when there is nothing funny. I remember a story linking Osaz to our discussion. He flashed his white set of teeth. Hester looked away, exhaled and then chuckled. A couple of weeks later, Osaz and I got a guest invite to PROJECT FAME. We got to the car park after the show, Osaz sighted a pink sleek ride in which the plate reads -NATWILLS. Who is NATWILLS? Osaz inquired. That should belong to Natasha Williams. Natty …Natty …that means should be in there. He smiled mischievously. Whats up Gem? I will go in there and come out with Natasha, if in five minutes am not out, you can leave with the car. Are you sure you are ready to loose half of your head? My Don, to every stubborn lady, there is stubborner man. He laughed and walked away gallantly. Hester rolled her eyes. In three minutes, he came out hand in hand with her with his smile reaching his ears not in anyway handicapped. Hester smiled. We chatted and he invited her for a drink, she agreed and for fortyfive minutes, we were together. Subsequently, Osaz went out with her a couple of more times. Yet bet the tabloids glared with photographs, headlines and captivating story. Osagie could be very dramatic. They became good friends. Osaz was a goal getter. She commented calmly. While I was away in South Africa, Natasha met me and told me she found out I could lead her to where you are. Said she wanted to relate with you. Hester uncrossed her legs. She uncrossed her legs and said nothing. I did everything to dissuade her yet she was bent on meeting with you. I think she has not gotten over Oladimeji and wants to see for herself what Oladimeji is so crazy about in you. Ethel stated before glancing at the screen. Hmmmm … Hester resolved thoughtfully. Oladimeji is still available for her, I wont see her. The last thing I will not do is to fight another lady for a man. Not even for love …? He raised his brows. Love worketh no ill to his neighbor! therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. Fighting is an Ill and a show of undiscipline. She stood. Goodnight Ethel, its time for me to sleep. It was pass noon. Wait Hess, remind me of the Bible passage. Romans thirteen verse ten, cheerio. She head to her bedroom. He sat back and his brows narrowed thoughtfully. ++++ **** Though we may not see every time we call his name, He will be there for us. They all sang. They were having a vigil to conclude the seven days of fasting the entire household had embarked on. They had converged in the sitting room. Oh Lets sing it. Ethel compelled with closed eyes. Though we may not see every time we call his name he will be there for us. It is well …it is well …it is well in the name of Jesus, it is well with our soul today. It is well …it is well …it is well in the name of Jesus …it is well with our soul today. Their hands were joined as they sang. With Nigeria … He said. It is well …it is well … it is well in the name of Jesus …it is well with Ni-ge-ria today. It is well …it is well with Ni-ge-ria... Do something new Lord in our lives make a start, do something new Lord, do something new. With raised voice they sang the new song. Ethel knelt in their midst as the Mummy J took over the prayers. ++++ ++++ ... there was a scheme that was organised at that time and since I was a citizen by birth, I applied and it was approved. I was in the U.S ARMY for a couple of years. Seriously? With the law and criminal justice you did in SA. SHE was flabbergasted. There so many of my photographs and portrait youre yet to see. Probably Ill take you for an excursion in my bedroom. He winked at her. Hester smiled but retained the serious expression on her face. There are sometimes when our physical and mental abilities help us a great deal and sometimes it doesnt mean a thing, it doesnt hold water. Her brows creased. By all standard, I think youre qualified to be a presidential candidate. From the day I met you, something told me you might be the savior and deliverer Nigerians have been longing and praying for. She smiled. I have always prayed for my country, for the well being of her but you made my prayers became focused and direct. Lord let him be your vessel of honor, let me be the one you will use to bring smiles on our faces, the very one you will use to draw those who have strayed due to what they are passing through back to You. He listened raptly. I love Nigeria with everything in me and every time I hear news that suggest we are going down, Im broken. Tears formed in her eyes. I know how many people would have willingly given so much for me to stay back in Hollywood. The hospital reviewed my contract and wanted to almost double my pay when I wrote that I was leaving. She paused momentarily. She paused momentarily. I knew I will never be fulfilled with the knowledge that the country Where am giving my best is near perfection and mine is … Hester shook her head. no where at all. That became the bond between Victoria and I, choosing to suffer for a while for our country to be better. She paused momentarily. There have been good and bad leaders. Some actually had good and positive intentions but lost it not willingly. Considering this nation of ours alongside the top position, there are lots of distraction, corruption, challenges, responsibility, idols and so on. Physical and mental abilities cant solve them all. You need something more … something more than everything you will face. You need the power that every gods, every human, everything trembles before, a power they all acknowledge. Dear you need the Invincible ,the possessor of the power that conquers all. She was emphatic. Let him saturate you, let him fill your body, spirit and soul. Let him take charge of your every abilities. Ethel exhaled and closed his eyes briefly. Lets share what the Holy book says in the Proverbs eight. She used her phone Bible. The fear of the Lord is to hate evil :pride and arrogancy, and the evil way and the froward mouth, do I hate. counsel is mine, and sound wisdom! I am understanding! I have strength. By me Kings reign and princes decree justice. By me, princes rule, and nobles, even all the judges of the earth. I love them that love me and those that seek me early shall find me. Riches and honor are with me; yea, durable riches and righteousness. My fruit is better than gold, yea, than fine gold; and my revenue than choice silver. I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the path of judgment. That I may cause those that love me to inherit substance; and I will fill their treasures. The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. She took his hands in hers. Let him possess you in the beginning of your way. Seek him early, see He can help with everything only if you ask him. Hester stood. Ask him now. He held her back. Lets ask him together. He eyes had become glassy with tears. Hester got down on her knees. Watchout for episode 23 Target: 10 likes
