Across the globe ,beyond the white Man's nation during the contemporary age the 21st century in Africa somewhere in Nigeria called Abia state ,there lived a young beautiful damsel called Ifeoma Luke,she is the only daughter in the midst of 4 agile boys .Her father who is a well known clergy in the communion of Christ Diocese known as Ven.Okonkwo Luke and her mother Mrs Okonkwo lived in the vicarage where she Ifeoma who her dad normally calls ify was born and brought up .

Ify was a girl in the midst of crisis ,a girl child beautiful,well curved edges that most men see as a reason to attend church service,other than saving there souls from death .she was a pretty girl ,well mannered and had respect for her elders as she was loved by all including her own family.However ify was an introvert who found it difficult to associate and express her views to her friends. joy a close friend to ify was her opposite who pretended in front of the priests and his wife though she was not loved by Mrs Okonkwo at all ,but for the sake of christ,she was allowed to come close to ify who is now in a state of self crisis as to her state of loosing her virginity at a tender age .

Ify comes out of her room one morning ,looked at the birds of the air , listened beautifully to the wonderful melodies that came from the birds ,she wondered if not telling the story of her experience was the right option, or if she had opened up would it still make her virgin again?? in the lost of thoughts Justin scared her and greeted her with a deep kiss on her lips "oh my love u scared me , please don't do that again or I may wake up our neighbors next time 'she said as the both hugged each other and went in .By the way babe said Justin I saw ur message last night but I couldn't reply you am sorry about it , but I have a good news for you and I wanted you to be the first person I will tell this morning" my Visa to Germany has been approved and by next month I will leave for Germany baby!!! our dreams has finally been answered baby ! baby!! babe!!! are you not listening to what I just told you ? with a depressed heart turned ify to Justin her love saying 'sugar how do u think of having the obi (heart) to leave me and go outside where u will fine white girls and then forget me . Baby I will never do such Justin replied. On Sunday we sing a special song as we both has planned then asked daddy to pray for me as he makes the Doxology ok??? yes my love said ify.they both hurried out to there work places as both planned to have dinner at ShopRite that same day .

When I was in junior high school class 2 in the churchyard where I and my parents lived ,although it was the church my dad served as of then , I was only 12years old and knew nothing about life just my triangle life of church , school and home .we had two other pastors lived in the same vicarage with us as the seconded my dad ,Rev.Emeka who was then married with a little son and a pregnant wife .I do spend my time in there house as I play with the little boy destiny as I do call him ,after my house chores I go to keep him and his nanny company and played all day with him as I child I enjoyed moving from one room to another ,as I was called mamarima oh I was loved but I never knew the Rev.was after my body as little as I was 😣my innocent mind she said as she subs , one day my dad sent me ify go call me Rev and I ran as fast as my legs will carry me ,stop running nnwa!! said mom u will fall down ooo 😁; mummy I won't ,then I came in to the house knocked at the door no one answered but it was open and I enjoyed watching TV so I stood there carried away by the TV before me . suddenly I felt this matured hands crawled through my back slowly;close to my shoulders then my small breasts ,Daddy ! I called in fear and trembling voice my father said I should call you for him ,relax he said to me stop shouting if u shout I will beat u up and nobody will know just shut up ur mouth ! I cried and pleaded with him daddy please stop what are you doing dnt u know ur sinning stop this thing and allow me to go I will never tell anyone I promise ,lo !!! Rev turned me and carried to on him and began kissing my lips as a child I dnt know what to do so I watched him licked up my tongue and my skins he tried to force his way through me I ran away I dnt know how ! that was just the beginning of my assualt as a teenage girl I ran to my room as laid on my bed and cried all day without telling anyone not even my self .I forced myself to believe nothing happened.fews months later a corp member came to live with us for his service days and spent few days with us and it happened that he would sleep in our room as young as we are we had nothing in mind for this uncle who buys us sweet and biscuits. I had quickly forgotten about the incident with Rev . And my parents were not troubled as the believe that nothing of such will cross the mind of the young man around us . The night he slept with us I didn't sleep at all as I told my mom that I needed to be with them in there room and leave the boys with the uncle but my mom shuned me and ask me to go sleep with my brothers in our room I did that and nothing happened on till the last say he was to go I slept off without any thoughts hence he never did touch previous night ,but to my surprise in my deep sleep as early hours of the morning I felt my body moved up and down slowly and it made me wonder why ,as I opened my eyes I saw uncle corp member on top of me riding me I was weak, I couldn't find my voice and broke in tears ! oh no my blood is broken uncle y?? y??? y??? me then I passed out then woke up that morning and ran to the bathroom only to see stains of blood on my undies and wept and encouraged myself not to tell anyone everything will be fine God who gives us the ability to heal wounded flesh will remake me a virgin! again so I thought I believe so firmly in that ,that I believe I was still that virgin child.

SamePlace

In my heart ,I said how will Justin look at me now after narrating my ordeals to him ,will he still love me as much as he did before now ,??? asked ify at the silence of there table . Justin looked up from his side and said nothing other than ", continue!!! baby m listening. with all feelings of Justin turned into anger towards the things he had heard he became bittered in his heart "how can a man who claims to be called by God do such a horrible thing to you . instead he was to preach against it rather indulging in such act,what type of Men Of God do we see in this our generation!!! The claim to be called by God but rather Satan's servent are they .My precious ify , don't worry everything will be fine am so shocked you kept all these things in your heart and carried the burden alone why didn't you speak up , every one would be on your side and justice would have been served and he would have been dismissed from his call together with the so called corp who came to live with your family.why the silence!!!!!.
