"Bimbo, I knw what was in that video and trust me, I am heart broken. But there's nothing we can do.....Whatever has happened has happened, just leave it all to God's hands" Aunt Bisi said and stopped to put a hand on my cheek..then continued
"Do u remember what your mom used to say whenever you question her about something that seems hard for you to digest?" She asked
I smiled "Yes; Casera sera, what ever will be will be" I said
She smiled too and said "Don't question God, rather give thanks to him for the gift of life He has given you, and pray that wherever your mum stopped you will reach and pass"
"But...." I started,
"No buts" aunt Bisi interrupted
"Losing someone close to you or dear to you is painful, but you can't say because of that your life has ended or you begin to look for who to blame.
And like I said before, it was her time to go cause if it wasn't her time nothing on this earth can take her from this world, be it sickness or whatever.... Remember Bimbo, God loves you"
I sighed and nod my head
"God will be with you and I know that He has set people who will favour you your way and I pray that the grace of God will be with you wherever you find yourself" she prayed and I answered "Amen"!!
Iknw she knows that there are still other questions to be answered and a lot of things hidden, but she chose to overlook them.
She smiled and dragged my cheeks softly "You need to get some rest, tomorrow is gonna be a long day" she said and with that she left my room.
Oh yeah I remember...I sighed...I'm going to the mortuary tomorrow to see my mum's corpse.
It feels weird to think that my mum is lying unconscious in the mortuary and honestly I've been trying to wrap my head around my mum's death, it sounds so unbelievable...so I won't be seeing mummy again, just like that and yh I started crying again....Suddenly; I heard a sound which brought the tears to an abrupt end.. I wiped my tears and stood up in fear.
I don't know why i suddenly became afraid, afraid of the unknown.
Afraid of what it feels like to have an encounter with a ghost, my mum's ghost at that.
So I cautiously walked to my bed, picked up my Bible cause I have this believe that when you're in trouble or you feel scared about anything, just hold unto the Bible.. funny right.... I walked slowly towards the door and then, the door handle moved again, I became more frightened and held my Bible tightly.
I gulped hard as I moved closer to the door..... And suddenly, the door opened, I was about to scream, but stopped myself immediately cause I saw two amazing creatures given to aunt Bisi as children staring up at me.I mentally slapped myself, cause what was the need to get scared of nothing in the first place and apparently, the children had been struggling to open the door because of their height, that was the cause of the commotion.
I sighed in relief and bent down to give them a tight hug, I was soo scared that I could feel my heart in my mouth."Aunty Bimbo we want to sleep in your room today" George said looking at me with those cute puppy eyes after I released them from the unexpected hug. They don't even know what's going through my head sef.
George and Lily are Aunt Bisi's children, George the older one and Lily the younger one."Ok" I said
"But next time knock or call my name so I'll open the door for u. Did u hear me?" I said
"Yes ma" they both chorused and with that they ran towards my bed and as soon as their heads hit the pillow they were off to wonderland.I sat at the edge of the bed and simply stared at them.
'How lucky they are'I thought
They're so oblivious to what's going on in their surroundings and they sleep Soo easily with no worries in the world.
Their presence made me forget my sadness and worry, they just have this aura around them so pleasing.
I smiled and lay beside Gorge with lily facing the wall and with that I slept.....................................💌💌💌................
