Leah's pov
" Jacob!" My mother in law shouted as she entered my yard.
Immediately we heard her voice, Jacob and I came out, worried about how agent she sounded.
" Mother, is everything ok?" I asked, upon seen her.
" Jacob!" She shouted, ignoring my question," why have you allowed yourself to do such an abominable thing? How can you ask your wife Rachel to leave your house without consulting the elders or your bashi bukombe, you took matter in hands, disrespecting us all,"
" Mother,that woman doesn't deserve to be in this house,she is a witch," I spoke,
" Please shut up," she cried, finally sparing me stare," if there is anyone who is a witch,it is you Leah. You think you can fool me?I know you are the reason for all your sister's misfortunes.
But mark my words very soon your wickedness will met will you,"" Bae how can you be quiet when she is insulting me like that," I complained, turning to look at Jacob,who was standing there like a Statue.
" What do you want him to say?" She spoke, getting on my last nerves," heaven know what you have done to him,"
" Mind your words woman or I will ask you to leave," I threatened with contempt.
" You will ask me to leave? Wow, with what authority?" She laughed.
" Mum!" Jacob finally shouted," please leave,it seems you didn't come in peace,"
" Jacob?" She called, perplexed," I should leave? Me your mother?"
" You heard him, just leave," I scorned looking her up and down.
" Ok, I will go," she said nodded," but remember this, Soon, your wickedness will catch up with you,mark my words,"
And she walked away, maintaining the pace she came with.**********
" The guts of coming to my house to insult me," I cried with disgust.
" That woman needs to be dealt with," Elizabeth spoke.
" You can say that again," I answered rolling my eyes.
" Don't let it ruin you glowing mood,that you have been having these days," she praised, cooking up a smile.
" How can I fail to be happy, when my enemies have been put to shame,"I laughed clapping my hands in joy.
" Speaking of your enemies, you should see what has become of your sister," she said, wincing her face," she is having sores all over body,you can't even want to be close to her,"
" Why doesn't she just die," I suggested and Elizabeth gave me a proud look.
"She will now that you have said it,"

Rachel's pov.....
I had sores all over my body,my beautiful skin now looked so ugly that I couldn't look myself in the mirror.
They were neither painful nor itchy, but ugly." I told you they were consequences to disobeying a man of God, now look at yourself," pastor annoying Hannah told me.
" Rachel, at least let us take you to the hospital," daddy suggested.
" Let me just die," I cried helplessly," I'm tired of living this kind of a life,"
" Mum,tell Rachel that her life can change if only she obeys God's instructions," Hannah told my mum,who was just crying helplessly like me.
" Baby, allow us to take you to the pastor,who knows what can happen," mum cried, staring at me.
" I said leave me alone!" I cried and ran away.
