THE BISHOP'S WIFE

CASSANDRA 'S POV

Here I was, listening to my husband preach the word of God to the church congregation.

"Praise be to God!" He said.

"Amen!" the entire church responded to him in uniform.

Henry Morgan, the man of my dreams. The love of my life. The only man for me, was standing infront the church as he read from the bible.

He was a bishop. A role he took on after an Apostle. Everybody loved him, saw him as a man of God, a spiritual father, a wise man.

I did too.

I loved him dearly, hopelessly and truly.

I was not a religious person. I had no idea what the holy spirit was and what adam and eve did to get kicked out of paradise.

I was a party girl, I didn't care about no man living in the clouds.

And then, Henry came along.

I hated his church boy persona and ways. It irritated me when he constantly quoted the bible.

So, I rejected his ass.

But he didn't give up. that didn't discourage him. Actually, it did the opposite and he tried harder with me.

I kept rejecting him. We were too opposite for me.

But he was constantly pursuing me. After a good number of failed attempts in trying to get rid of him, I gave him a chance to take me on a date.

And it was lovely.

He listened to all my stories. He showed me so much attention and care, I started to like him.

He was nothing like the bad boys I dated who would immediately ask for sex, he was willing to wait.

And he did wait, no pressure was put on my end.

I loved him for his patience, the way he treated me. Mmmh- I just loved him so much.

Looking at him climb up the clergy and get to the position he had always dreamed made me so happy.

He deserved it. He was such a good husband to me.

And I made sure to return the favor and be a supportive, loving wife.

I learned everything about God,church, how to be a pastor's wife and how to handle that position.

He was a pastor when we got married.

It wasn't easy, but I did my best. He had changed me, changed my party girl ways and turned me into a church girl.

A church girl who dresses decently, doesn't drink and smoke anymore.... Crazy right?

But for him, I was willing to change my ways to fit into his world.

I did wish we had a baby already. Its been years.

I don't know what was going on, but God's time is the best.
