JUST A LITTLE SIN
Episode 36
By Amah’s Heart
“… yes, I have gotten a repairer who will help me fix it. I was waiting to get some money first to be able to do that and I have enough money now for it..” I replied Yoara who thought I was kidding when I said I wanted the phone back
“But you already have a phone that You’re using..” Chumi said.
I looked at her intensively
She un-derstands the look perfectly well and said “… please, allow me to go give my cousin this, Yoara said is been lying around here carelessly, that’s why took it..”
Chumi said as she appeared unwilling to release the phone from her bag.
If not that Yoara was there, I would’ve gone ahead to retrieve the phone from her handbag
“Tom, let her have it. Since she said she will fix it and give it to her cousin.. then let her do that. The phone has been around here for a while now and I only see you using it on a few occasions, maybe for radio and is been a long time you even tou-ched it, I was the one that charged it recently like I used to do once in a while. You’re not really in a desperate need for it, because is been here and you never showed interest in having it..” Yoara said
“Yes, this phone has been here for a very long time, nobody thought of it and now that I decided to fix it and give it to a cousin of mine, you..” Chumi paused from speaking as she looked up at me.
I knew exactly what to do
I was already running out of patience
“I have an important recordings on it that I will like Yoara to listen to, hand the phone over let me play it for him after which you take the phone or you can play the recordings if you don’t want to give it to me..”
She stared at me speechless.
She wanted to say something Yoara interrupted.
“Oh really? A recording about what? Chumi, please bring out the phone let’s hear what the recordings is about..?
I turned to her with a sm-irking face.
She thought I was going to go easy on her.
I may decide whatever I want to do after getting back the phone, either to exp-ose her or to change the topic and let Yoara find out by himself.
I stretched out my hands towards her so that she can hand it over.
“There was no serious recordings on it, I didn’t find anything like that as I browse throu-ghit except for few seconds recording of our private conversation which I had to delete..”
“You deleted what? I shouted angrily.
“I didn’t know it was of any importance to you. It was supposed to be a private conversation between Yoara, my husband to be and I. I don’t un-derstand your reason for recording us. You put the phone on record, stationed it close to us and went out so that you will listen to our private conversation whenever you return. I seriously don’t un-derstand your reason for doing that but I deleted it anyway..”
“Wait, Tom wouldn’t do that. What exactly does he wants to do with our private conversation? Yoara said surprised
“I don’t know, maybe he should tell us what he intends to do with it. I was surprised when I listened to it too. I could have bring it to you to see too but it totally escaped my mind, I didn’t think of it until now..”
I laughed out sarcastically. Chumi is indeed smart but speak foolishly without thinking
“Yoara, did you think I will record your private conversation and still want you to listen to it? Does that even make any sense? The recordings I wanted you to listen to was that of Chumi..” I paused
I asked her to give me the phone let me confirm before saying anything.
She hesitated.
I didn’t want to appear violent because I was very ready to snatch it out of her hand
Yoara decided to collect the phone.
Before Chumi handed it over to him, she first of all did something on the phone before giving it to Yoara
He checked the phone and said there’s nothing in it.
Chumi probably deleted the remaining of the recordings before handing it over to Yoara.
“There’s nothing here Tom..” Yoara said.
“Anyway, I have some other recordings with evidential pictures which I have already saved somewhere safe. But just before I release it Yoara, I just want you to know that your Chumi is a liar. She’s been lying to you ever since you know her, she’s a single Mo..”
Chumi interrupted loudly while standing on her feet.
“Listen Tom, I know I wronged you in the past but I really don’t want us to keep fighting even after I try to make peace. Do you un-derstand how much I love your brother and ready to do anything to be with him, that’s how much I also loves his family and that includes you. Please let’s stop fighting and getting at each other’s throats, when we do that we tend to forget that Christ paid a great price for us so that we can love one another, forgive one another and live in peace with one another. when we continue in this hating lane we forget everything Christ did for us. Please, let’s live in harmony and stop the quarrel. Let’s be our brother’s keeper..”
“Hey, I’m not your brother. Quit pretending because you can’t shut down the truth for long, soon enough it will resurface…”
I was still talking when Yoara said to me
.”Tom why not embrace peace, my lovely and God fearing woman here said she does not want to fight anymore with you. This used to be one of my prayer points and God finally answered. Chumi is a good lady, see the way she preached Christ to you and explained what hate does in the Life of a believer. Tom, you need Jesus in your life so that you will un-derstand most of we have been saying and also to experience the peace only him can give you…”
I sighed heavily, picked up the cloth bag that I bought from the ground and started heading to the room.
I paused and said to Yoara
“You maybe gullible and easily manipulated which is sad but you’re definitely not stup*d. I will rather become a native doctor if you two happens to be the only Christan left on earth. There’s absolutely nothing good in your lives that can draw me to your faith. Nothing about you two that can makes me want to become a Christan, yet you’re ministers in church.. very pathetic. What kind of minister are you Yoara? You are moving with a she devil yet you see her as an angel. I thought you were supposed to pray for God to send the right wife to you? Well, I’m yet to un-derstand the kind of believers that you both are. Is quiet disturbing but i wish you find out the truth soon enough or I will have to exp-ose her by myself…”
I walked away.
I heard them murmuring.
Chumi told Yoara not to pay any attention to me. She said she will will be praying for God to arrest me soon.
I chuckled silently.
Chumi later left that night
It was the following day I gave Yoara the things I bought for him.
He was grateful
He wanted me to tell him about the things I was talking about yesterday concerning Chumi.
I told him he should ask her necessary questions, dig de-eper about her by visiting her unaware
Or if he’s truly a man of God then he should pray for more revelation concerning his relationship.
He asked to see the pictures and recordings I mentioned yesterday.
I said I don’t have any and even if I do I will release it when I want but he has to take my words serious by finding out more about Chumi because I can’t watch him walking into the fire and pretend like I didn’t see him.
Since I made up my mind that I was going to their church that Sunday, i got dressed and left with Yoara.
We will meet Chumi in church.
