Thou Shall Not Sin

August, Kylie, and Johnny in MM

"Everybody! Oh everybody! Come on." I sang lead as the choir sang back up. Johnny stood at the pew bobbing his head to the music and singing along.

He seemed to be watching this one girl he always seems to be looking at, talking to, or close to. She's short, brown skin, slim thick, shoulder length hair but usually has on weave. I don't like her and she seems like a slut. I have a feeling he's messing with her, but I don't want to believe it. If he's cheating on me again, I'm calling it quits.

"Come on and praise him. Come on and praise him. Ooooh praise the lord! Yeea. I'll bless the lord at all times. His praises shall forever be in my mouth oooh I'll praise him with my whole heart. I got a right to praise him. You got a right to praise him! I will yes I'll bless the lord. I wiiiill yes I'll blest the lord I will yes I'll bless the lord. I will oooooh I will!" I sang putting my heart into it.

Women were shouting and crying and had their hands in the air. I saw sister Sheila towards the front crying with her hands in a praying position. I felt good to be touching people's spirits and helping them connect with the holy spirit.

"I'll praise him yeeea! Pooh I'll praise him yea yea! I'll praise him! Yeeea. I'll praise him yeeeeeaaaa I'm gonna lift my hands. Yeea. I'm honna do my dance. Oh yea yea." I said doing a two step for Jesus.

As I sang, I noticed the doors of the church open and in walk a tall caramel toned guy with a blue suit and shades. His hair was nappy as hell, but he was good looking. So good looking that it damn near made me mess up my song.

Snap out of it! You might embarrass yourself. My conscience told me.

"I'll praise." Johnny sang his part which was the last two words of the lead of the song.

"I'll praise him." The choir finished. I handed the mic to the deacon and sent to sit back down in the very front where I normally sat.

"Good job." Nitra said smiling.

It had been a month since the incident with dinner and I had mostly got over the situation, but I still don't care for Nitra. I lost all respect for her that night. What 70 year old acts like that in front of other people? She should be ashamed of herself.

I gave her a faint smile and turned back to my husband who was preaching on forgiveness. His ass think he slick, but he not.

"Thou shall love thy enemy. Forgiveness, is the way. Say it with me. Forgiveness is the way. I remember one time my wife ate the last piece of chicken. I was mad. Hotter than a summer day in Texas. I was hungry and I checked in that microwave and sure enough, the succulent piece of friend deliciousness was gone! Did I hold it against her? No! I forgave her! I love my wife and I would never want to cause a problem by hanging something as stupid as a piece of chicken over her head." My husband said.

To say I was pissed was an understatement. I was livid. Why the hell would he embarrass me and bring that up? Also, why the hell would he lie and say he didn't hold it against me? He still talks about it. I should have known something was up when he brought is up and got fussy this morning on the way to church.

I already knew I was blushing in embarrassment and because I was boiling mad. I wanted to knock the black off him. He can be such a dumb ass. And there was that ho in the corner yelling 'preach it paster. Yaaas!'

Like bitch you gon need to get some preaching from the pastor after I beat yo ass. I really need to calm down. I need to get out of here. I got up and went to the back like I usually do when he piss me off and sat down at his desk. This time his annoying mother didn't come after me and I ended up graced with a more wanted presence.
