ATROCITIES… SEASON FOUR
EPISODE 11
From U.S Bah ❤ ✌🏽
****
Finally, the day for the court hearing was here, and I was arranged before court.
My church members were there, Pastor Adomako and Mama Gyamfuaa were also there, as well as Pastor Moses.
My mother was there too, and my sister Eve was seated beside my mother with her husband, the CEO.
My father was the lawyer for Eve.
After blackmailing people with my father’s ability to throw them to jail, I am finally the victim he is going to throw into jail. What a life! What a twist of destiny! I thought sadly.
I stood in the box, waiting for my fate.
As it is done in every court, my father talked and talked to the judge, and finally, the judge asked me.
Miss Baaba, are you guilty or not?
My lord, I am guilty because I attempted killing my sister, but I am equally not guilty, because, I was incited to do all those atrocities.
My heart was once pure and clean until my mother made me un-derstand that, I deserved the best of everything.
She told me that, the ways to achieve those best things is to cause pain, kill, be jealous and be atrocious.
I as such, attempted to kill my only sister because I thought I deserved her fiance better than she did.
My father still thought I was a Virg-in when my mother knew I had broken it way back in High school by one of my teachers.
My mother made me sin, to cover her sin of sleeping with my father’s bosom friend.
Everyone in the court room screamed in dismay.
My mother made me live in sins as a way of life.
I stand here today in pain and remorse because I didn’t get the kind of mother everybody got.
I am not here to witch-hunt her, I am rather here, to let her know that, she is equally as guilty as I am.
What I need from her, is to ask God for forgiveness, for being the fertile land, on which atrocities grew.
My lord, in the presence of this whole court, I say I am guilty for allowing evil reside in my heart. I explained in tears.
My mother bowed her head down in tears, so did my father, and Eve.
On this note Miss Baaba Benson, you are hereby sentenced to 20 years imprisonment for attempted murder, and the murder of Miss Cindy Quaye. The judge pa-ssed his final judgment.
My church members burst into uncontrollable tears.
My mother screamed in the court room in pain.
She knelt down and pleaded with the judge.
Please spare her and sentence me, I deserve to be imprisoned.
I deserve to carry her cross. She lamented.
I was quickly handcuffed and led out of the court room.
Pastor Adomako and Pastor Moses followed me in tears.
This is God’s will and there is nothing I can do about it. I thought sadly.
I was taken to prison.
Life over there was unbearable. No better food, no better sleeping place.
I still didn’t give up on God, I prayed everytime in everyday.
I began sharing the word of God with my colleague prisoners.
I won so many souls for Christ.
On the Sixth month of my stay in prison, my mother, Eve and the CEO visited me.
Baaba, I am very sorry for the mess I’ve created in your life, please forgive me. She apologized.
As I speak to you, your father has divorced me.
And I know, that is the price I have to pay for being sinful. She added.
I’m so sorry for breaking your home mother, please forgive me.
I equally apologized to Eve and her CEO husband.
I reconciled with them and they went back home.
In another month’s time, my father visited me with Pastor Moses, Pastor Adomako, Eve and the husband and few of my church members.
Their mission was to put a marriage ring on my finger.
Baaba, as I promised you months back, I am here to marry you in the presence of the entire church family and your family as well. Pastor Moses narrated.
Pastor, please forgive me, I can’t marry you.
I am Hepatitis B positive. I responded in tears.
It doesn’t change the love I have for you Baaba, I love you, and want you to be my wife. He responded.
They prayed and put the ring on my finger.
Pastor Moses wore his ring too.
Everyone applauded us, for the beautiful two minutes wedding of love.
Daddy, there is one thing I will like you to do for me.
I want you to go to Pastor Fiifi and apologize to him on my behalf. I pleaded.
Yes Baaba, your sister and I have already done that, and I must say he has forgiven you.
He has moved on with his life, and he is currently married with a kid. Daddy responded.
Thanks daddy, I am glad to hear that.
The prison guards took me back to my prison ward.
I beamed with smiles as I laid quietly on my bed.
The Bride in Prison.
Baaba the prison bride.
The World of ATROCITIES truly goes unrewarded. I thought.
THE END!!!!
