19 Linda's confrontation

Doris laughed back saying "why are you laughing, so because am a church girl I should open my eyes and allow sand to enter my eyes,no is never going to happen,I just went there and told her the piece of my mind, I only warned her to desist from the act of gossiping that is all". Linda still laughing" I wonder what will be going through her mind, that out Sister Mary can talk not to talk of confronting her, am sure she will be so surprised, trust me". Doris giggled and replied "she has not seen anything yet, at least with what I just did, she will know that am not the type of girl you can joke with nor play with my family members, she should go to my village and ask about me,is just the word of God I hear everyday calmed me down". Linda looked at her smiling "seriously Doris this is my first time am seeing you act like this, am equally surprised". Doris smiling said" no Linda you shouldn't be at all,in all am still that calm sister Doris you know". Linda laughed so hard saying "I hear you but seriously what you did to that girl today,she deserves it,maybe this is the first time of somebody calling her to other,enough is enough, I was too calm that day,let her try that nonsense with me again" she said angrily. "and you know what I told her today?" Doris asked pulling out a chair behind the door to sit down. "no what did you tell her" Linda anxiously asked. Doris replied "I told her that if she doesn't desist from such act of gossiping, she will regret it soon, and she thought I was blabbing,wait let her just calm down and watch it happen". Linda said" you really told her that, yes you told her right, let her make her choice whether to continue or to regret " . Doris smiled "what she doesn't know is that, everyday for the thief one day for the owner, you see all this her gossips they will surely catch up with her one day". Linda sighed" don't mind her,my own is that let her not fall in my trap again, that she succeeded the other day because I wasn't in the mood with her,she won't succeed this time around "she said and went over to the kitchen to prepare something for them to eat.

Four days later there hostel went short of water,and no light to pump water,they had to go to the nearby compound to fetch water,and this same issue of no light affected the rest of other hostels in that area. So all the students went to the same compound to fetch water . Doris wanted to prepare food they will eat and no water to cook, Linda had to go by herself to fetch the water.

There was already long queue when she reached,so she dropped her bucket at the back of the last one and waited patiently for her turn. Not along after Precious came out with her own bucket to fetch water,when she saw Linda she immediately said" oh the murderer is already here". Linda couldn't bear this anymore she went over to her and gave her a heavy slap on her cheek saying "who are you calling a murderer, are you mad,that you said this last week and went Scot free,that doesn't mean you will go Scot free this time around". Precious looked at her angrily holding her cheek" wait did you just slap me,I only said the murderer is here did I mention any name, you slapped me,you just touched the tail of the tiger "she said trying to retaliate but students rushed her and preventing her from hitting back. Linda replied shouting" no you all should leave her let me teach her the biggest lesson of her life, you didn't mention any name but you and I know that you were referring to me,see don't ever you try this nonsense with me again ooh,you can carry on with all this your cheap gossips but don't come near me,you are calling me a murderer were you there when I killed them,did I tell you I killed them,in fact let me say this so that a everybody will bear me witness because I know your cohorts are here,you see with this your accusations you just leveled before me,you will suffer for it, you will continue with this your gossip that will land you into a bigger trouble, and am telling you that will be your last gossip,is not a curse ooh,but it will surely happen for trying to accuse an innocent girl of murder". Precious laughed and said "you innocent you can tell that to the birds, and let me also warn you,that I allowed your filthy hands that is already soaked with blood to touch me,let it not happen again, thank your stars for them if not I would have showed you what am made of,stupid girl, no wonder you sent your sister Mary, a devil in disguise to warn me,if not I was in my mood I would have beaten her black and blue rubbish". Linda replied" you know what you are too small for me to be here bantering words with you, let this happen again, the slap was just the tip of an iceberg, am done Here rubbish " she said and left immediately collecting her bucket. " look at her murderer, you think I will stop,I won't, I will make sure I let the while wide world know how dangerous you are" Precious added. Linda ignored her as she continued with her steps finding her way back to the hostel.

Doris was sitting down when she saw her walk in angrily"Linda what is it, who annoyed you".
