Chapter 9 : THE STORY CONTINUES..

I had to device a means of following everyone of them in the compound I had to intensify it this time around, on Saturday day evening I saw one of the tenant come in our flat and It was unusual but later I realized it was the pastor in the redeem church that I will be attached to

After his brief chat with my boss, he set out to go downstairs to his own flat,he saw me in the corridor and me, he told me we will be going to church tomorrow, I said okay sir, then he left.

Sunday has come again and they have gone for their morning mass as usual with my colleague, I rushed to the farm to do my normal duties so that I will meet the pastor on time, before 8:30 AM they had returned from morning mass and I went upstairs and prepared to go and meet the pastor so that we can go to church together.

I finished preparing and went to the pastors flat to wait for him and he has already prepared, we moved to church together, we got to the church there I met the remaining half of myself.

The church was quite a lively one, I was born in the redeem church, I've been a full member in my village so It was just like continuing from where I stopped but something else caught my attention more than any other things there then.

Remember I've spent so far two weeks and some days in that street, there is this beautiful girl that every one was striving to talk to in the street, anytime she is passing people come out to watch her pass, she is very exquisitely adorable, every one wanted something with her but she was always reserved.

To me then, there was nothing that could bring me closer to her or bring her closer to me talkmore of talking with her, I never imagined that, me that has just come from the village with dark skin and shortness, how am I going to talk to that kind of queen am I insane?? It seemed impossible to me then, so I removed that thinking so that I don't go and embarrass myself

All I did was just to join the queue of people who come out to watch her while she is passing, I've been joining them to watch this angel pass for about two weeks, she was too beautiful to a point that other girls used her for reference to beautiful girls

God's plan, God's plan is, I get to that church just to realize that the angel is also a member of that same church that I was forced to join, I said to myself,this people don't even need to force me again or attach me to someone to come, I personally will be coming to this church willingly even if it's just to come and watch the physical angel then I'm okay.

I was always an angry kid but this time around I'm angrier, even love fantasies does not obliterate my desire for a greater and better and easier future, even though watching the angel was mind pleasing but I still couldn't imagine getting close to her it seemed impossible to me then.

Don't forget that Self preservation has always been my first instinct, so while we got to the church it happens that pastor I came with was man of the people so anyone coming with him is a figure, I always stay reserved whenever I go to a new place, I don't talk in a new place unless I'm called to talk then, I will always be on mute till the end of the service and we will go.

While we were in the church, as a smart teenage boy, I know when the light is green and when it's red and even when it's black, I saw lots of lights from some girls, while mine was constantly and inconspicuously shinning one direction, In the redeem church we welcome new members with welcoming songs and the old members would go round and shake the new members.

During my time as a new member many of the teenage girls in the church had pulled up from their seats to come and shake hands with me, meanwhile my palms were so rough that I didn't even want to shake any of them to avoid someone asking me if I break stones or if I'm welder, but anyways we shook hands and every one returned to their various seats although the angel did not come to shake hands with me.

There were lots of beautiful girls in that church mostly teenagers, and they had their teenagers department and their meeting times were on Fridays and some Sundays after church service, they invited me to their meeting on Friday, I was already jubilating that I've gotten a little space close to the angel.

After the service they took my informations and I left, I was already jumping up inside while I was going home, I was overwhelmed but inconspicuously because I couldn't pinpoint any physical reasons why was so excited but inside of me I feel very happy.

I reached home and the first thing I could tell my colleague was the story of meeting that angel we use to come out side the gate to watch while she is passing mostly in the evening, he burst out of laughter, I told him how everything went in the church today how excited I was when I saw the angel inside the church.

We discussed and laughed till it was evening already we went downstairs to attend to our duties and close for the day, we had restrictions..
