'Unless God...'

NB:The undelined texts in the conversations are Greg's...

At about 6:00am there was a loud bang on the door, I woke up immediately to check who was disturbing our peace this early. I met Greg in the parlour when I came out of my room

"Did you hear that?...yes I was going to check who it was...wait here, let me look through the window, just to be careful...okay but you're hurt... don't worry about me..." he checked and gasped
"Greg who's it?... Roland...Roland?_open the door please" When the door was opened, Roland was lying on the floor with bruises all over and bloodstains on his shirt and trousers all he could say was "I'm s-or-ry Vi-vy..." and he passed out. Greg helped me take him to his room and placed him on the bed, I grabbed all I could think of from the first aid kit and got to work immediately. We took off his shirt and cleaned him up, I dressed the wounds and gave him an injection to make him continue resting after whatever they must have done to him. After that we left him to rest and went to the dining area, not to eat but to reason things out

"How's your arm Greg?...getting better, are you doing okay?...mmhm...Viv...yes?...are you okay?... I'll be okay, I'm just thinking...about?...what must have happened to Roland...I know, but let's not jump into conclusions till he wakes up and tells us everything. I went to shower and made Greg freshen up as well in the spare washroom, I got him some t-shirts from Roland's closet.
"Greg you know Roland might take quite a while to wake up because of the sedative I gave him, I think you should go home, I'd update you when he wakes up...I don't mind waiting...oh my, how could I forget...what is it?...Jayden, who did you leave him with?...oh he's at my parents'...huh such a relief, but I'm sure he misses you and is waiting for you to come get him...why do I get the notion that you don't want me here when Roland wakes up?...oh not at all, it's just that I've already bothered you enough and I don't want to take all your time...let me worry about that, besides Jayden is having the time of his life at his grandparents' place, I'm sure you know grandparents tend to pamper a lot...tell me about it, my parents used to pamper Tracey when she was alive". We were sitting on the couch and he reached out to hold my hand that was closest to him
"you must really miss her...I do but I'm comforted that she's in heaven...good and you'll have children again, as many as you want...yes I will, thank you so much Greg...for what?... for being here, for everything basically, God bless you...Amen! I'm glad doing everything I do for you, you don't have to feel indebted to me in anyway...thank you...there we go again...hahaha, I can't help it, I'm a grateful person...I know that and it's a good thing, I'm just saying the 'thank you' is enough...yes Sir😊...How's the adoption plan for Sharon coming along?...well, with her biological parents on the scene now, it's going to be quite a challenge especially if they can prove she's theirs...I get that, then I guess they would carry out a DNA test to ascertain that right?...yes please, once the test proves she's their daughter, she would automatically have to move in with them...and does she want to?...she doesn't but considering she's a minor, she really can't decide, I already spoke to her that if that is to happen, she would have to learn to love them and get used to them being her parents...I'm really sorry, I know you were hoping to be her mum and possibly fill the void your daughter left...yes but it is for my good...that's the spirit...I really hope they care for her genuinely and give her all the love she yearns for...hopefully; we would pray for her...sure".

I heard slight groans and sprung to my feet immediately to check on Roland with Greg following.
"Oh Roland, thank God you're awake...Vivy, what happened?...you don't remember?...not really...wow, we saw you lying on the floor badly bruised this morning after we heard a knock at the door...oka-ay_I think I remember now, some thugs crossed me on my way home and beat me up badly then left me there almost unconscious...Lord🤦‍♀️, so how did you get home?...a good samaritan heard me wincing in paim when passing by and helped me to this place after I gave him the address...really?_we didn't see anyone bring you, Greg did you?...no, I didn't, he probably left immediately he knocked...anyway what matters is you're home safely. Roland do you per chance know those who attacked you?..." he looked at me hesitantly
"Vivy, I'm really sorry for what I'm about to tell you...go ahead...I owe some really dangerous people an amount of money...how much?...$20,000 dollars...hmm...you don't seem to be surprised...that's because I'm not; I was almost attacked by some men yesterday, I tried calling you to know if you were home and for you to come help me but you weren't answering my calls so I called Greg and he helped me but got injured in the process...I'm so sorry Greg, this is all my fault🤦‍♂️...don't worry, but why did you borrow from such people?...I was really in dire need of money and I spoke to a friend who then introduced me to this group, they told me their terms and conditions to which I agreed because I thought I could meet up and pay before the time but the investment I was working on didn't pan out as expected and I lost millions of dollars. When I couldn't pay the first instalment they started threatening me, it's one of the reasons why I jumped at your offer to live here with you because they could have found me easily at my apartment...you should have said something to me Roland😒...I know Vivy, I'm so sorry...is that why you asked me to pray for you?...yes, that was the reason, I knew I had gotten myself into deep trouble...I just knew something was off about your behaviour but you kept saying everything was okay. Come to think of it, what did you need such an amount for?...it was initially $5000 dollars, the interest compounded weekly when I couldn't pay...these people are thieves, how could they expect you to pay $15,000 dollars more when you just took $5000 dollars?...it was later I got to know they do that to keep their prey constantly in debt by spiking the interest rate because they know they can never pay at once...they would certainly be caught and dealt with by the authorities...Vivian is right and Roland, you wouldn't even need to pay a single dollar, they messed with the one who would end their career...how is that?...we would pray a prayer of agreement, the word says if two shall agree as touching anything here on earth, it shall be done unto them...the word also says if we bind anything on earth, it shall be bound in heaven and if we loose anything on earth it shall be loosed in heaven...very good Viv, so we would pray that these culprits would be caught and dealt with by the police and anyone who's been ripped off by them would get a refund of whatever money is left in their possession, do you both agree with me?...yes...yes I agree, unless God cancels my debt, I don't know how else I'm going to pay...good, let's pray"

There are some situations that you know unless God comes in, there's nothing you can do about it...God has done everything for us and expects us to grow up and fight because he's already given us the ability to do so but you have to acknowledge that He's your helper and that no matter how stormy it gets, you're never alone.
