Bolu's POV

   I have successfully avoided my cult members for few days now but it's not going to be easy convincing them I'm leaving the group.

   The shame...

  No..

  And it's even close to the day of the battle of the cults, they might think I'm scared or even call me a coward for quitting on them while the battle is near.

   I can not bear that ridicule, those were my thoughts for days now until today when I found Philip standing right outside my room in the hostel.

   "Hello boss", Philip greeted

   "Good evening Philip",I said having full idea why he was here

   "Let's be frank with each other, guy to guy, you have changed over the past four days now, you have been avoiding meetings and always giving one excuse or the other, do tell me what is going on with you boss", Philip said while I grimaced

   "Let's talk inside",I said

  "No this is where we talk so let's talk Bolu", Philip said while I felt hot suddenly because I was now afraid of the consequences of leaving the cult group.

   I was afraid of saying no to the devil even after all God has done to save me from his devious claws

  "Well are you going to say anything", Philip asked me

  "I have been sick for sometime now but I'm getting better now that's why I have been absent",I lied eventhough I could hear the Holy Spirit saying no

   "That's good", Philip said

  "Me falling sick?",I asked raising an eyebrow

   "No boss, actually some of the other cults have been spreading rumors that you are opting out of the battle of the cults by trying to dissolve the white wolf cult", Philip explained while I kept mute

   "Which is one of the reasons I came here today, boss you can not quit or dissolve the group, we have sacrificed so much to be where we are today, we can not afford to let all our efforts go to waste which is why we must make a statement at the battle of the cults, that we do not settle for less neither are we cowards", Philip said while I forced myself to nod

   To say I was beyond scared won't be a lie, I was afraid of saying anything because I don't want to be mocked.

   God please try to understand me, I prayed as I entered the room

    Don't compromise Bolu, if you want to be for God then you must say no to the devil, you can not serve two masters, it's time you choose whom you want to serve, Me or the devil

  But...

No buts, son, I will be with you even in the worst scenario, no matter how men try to mock you, I will be there by your side comforting you, I will not let you be alone

  God, I whispered as tears rolled down my face, I was practically shaking since I realized I was not going to stand for God if I keep on behaving like this so I gave my grandpa a call.

     "So what's your decision",my grandpa asked immediately he answered my call

   Seems God shows him everything, I thought sadly desiring that intimacy he had with God

   "I am afraid I can't do what God wants me to do",I replied

   "There was a man in the Bible named Moses", my grandpa said leaving me to wonder how is this Moses of a guy related to any of our discussion.
