Red glowing eyes stared back at me, and I tried to see clearly who it was. Metal claws closed over my forearm tightly, and I whimpered. Then I noticed he looked like David, the man with the red eye had his height and shape of his head. Then the strange being suddenly turned into my mother inlaw. The fear finally began to set in as my heart pumped.
βEkomobong!β Her deep voice rumbled and echoed at the same time.
I woke up immediately sitting upright in shock, it was a dream. The bed was soft under me, but the covers were thickly hot. I was sweating through my pyjamas shirt. I looked at the other bed, Teye was sleeping peacefully wrapped in her pink mickey mouse duvet. My heart eased a bit, I kept repeating in my head that it was only a nightmare.
βMummy are you okay?β Mfon asked, her voice was soft and tender, I held her into my arms.

βWhat do yβall want?β I asked in a loud Tone, but boldly.
βGood morning maama.β they all greeted in Unison. There was a murmur. Pastor Jerry stood out from the crowd.
βMamaa please pastor sent us to you.β Jerry said softly.
βI am ready for the divorce now, he doesnβt need to send the whole church to come beg me for a divorce.β
They began to murmur.
βNo ma, he is asking for your forgiveness.β They all knelt in unison. But my heart became hardened. I gently closed the curtains and walked back slowly to the kitchen.
βForgive?β I repeated in a panic whisper, a tear falling down my cheek….
