Episode 4
The rest of the day was crazy and busy, I wasn’t comfortable the whole of the day, with every body looking at me like a freak, I was going crazy with their looks and scorn, like that wasn’t enough angel Michael was around me saying things that I could not even remember. Finally the day came to an end, I took a turn to my favorite restaurant to get my dinner, “why should I cook”
ANGEL MICHAEL
don’t eat out tonight, just go home and eat something.
TERESA
you have come again? Please leave me alone oh, what’s going to happen now? Will another woman come from no where and beat me up again? ( I scoff)
ANGEL MICHAEL
why not find out for yourself.
I waited for him to say something else but he didn’t, I couldn’t wish or think anything he could hear my thought without stressing, not having the strength for another embarrassment, I drove straight home, I got home Hungary and tired, I quickly rush into the kitchen to get pizza from the fridge but there was nothing left, in fact my fridge was empty, “d–n right, I shouldn’t have listen to that dude, now I’m going to die of hunger”
ANGEL MICHAEL
“Michael” and now I’m a “dude” you have no respect for angels?
TERESA
(Scoff) so you finally spoke, all the while you were silent and now u spoke because I called you a dude? Well I have respect for angels before but if all angels are like you, then I lost all my respect.
ANGEL MICHAEL
but why? What did I do that has made you lost all your respect?
TERESA
(I smiled) I don’t know, just leave me alone would you? I’m so hungry
ANGEL MICHAEL
look inside the fridge then.
TERESA
Like I haven’t done that before? There is nothing in there.
ANGEL MICHAEL
you argue too much teresita
TERESA
(I smiled, no one has ever called me teresita before) well that’s why I’m a doctor right? Because I need to argue with my patients who won’t take their medicine.
ANGEL MICHAEL
fine accepted, so suit yourself if you want to eat or not.
With frustration I opened the fridge and there was food, food of different kinds, I could swear there wasn’t even water when I opened the fridge before, how come I wiped my eyes with my hand to be sure I was seeing clearly and when I finish the food was still there staring at me, when you are hungry you won’t even have time to think if the food is good or evil. I dug into the food and ate like a wounded lion, ” God the food tasted like it was made by God himself” I have never tasted anything as good as that. I ate to my filled and left the remains on the kitchen table without covering it.
ANGEL MICHAEL
God hate waster teresita.
As much as I like it when he calls me that, it makes me feel girly and weird.
TERESA
stop calling me that would you?
ANGEL MICHAEL
I won’t promise.
TERESA
(I sigh) I’m done eating the food what else should I do with it?
ANGEL MICHAEL
keep for another day, do you study the holy book at all? Where your blood maker feed five thousand people what did he tell them after they had ate to their fill?
TERESA
Gather the remains.
ANGEL MICHAEL
So you know and yet you waste food, why do you think your blood maker asked them to gather the remains?
TERESA
if you are always here, monitoring me, who will God send on missions and errands? (Changing the subject)
ANGEL MICHAEL
you have no ideal, how big the kingdom of God is do you? No one can put God to ransom, that was why the day the choir mistress in your church refuse to turn up because she allow Lucifer to get to her heard that no one was like her, God used you to prove to her and every other person there that no one can hold God to ransom.
TERESA
why were they falling, I thought maybe they were just pretending, why did Mrs Benson my pastor’s wife fell too?
ANGEL MICHAEL
she has been barren for 15 years, she couldn’t conceive, not because she didn’t have a womb but because her break through was attached to you.. She is with a child now, even she isn’t aware yet.
TERESA
this is too much to take in, she was barren for that long because I was suppose to carry out her deliverance? I didn’t even touch her, so how come she was delivered?
ANGEL MICHAEL
My Lord works in a way humans can never understand ” God’s ways are wiser than any man’s understanding” you wanted to drop the mic because you felt their hypocrisy was getting on your nerves, look here
That day at the podium, I tried to drop the mic but two ladies in white held me, they are angels I guess.
TERESA
so that was what happened? I felt the strong force holding me, but I didn’t see anyone.
ANGEL MICHAEL
you could not have, because your heart was filled with doubt, and I must tell you, the powers bestowed to you by my lord is mighty and big, but as long as you doubt you won’t use it.
I was tired, tired of what I am, or what they say I am, I just want to be that ordinary girl who has no one as a friend or lover.
