Many a times people go through life's challenges without knowing the source of their problem.
This was the case of Nneka's husband, Kashim Olabisi. They were married for ten years without an
issue. They had done many tests and sought for all manner of medical help to no avail. They even did IVF twice but they both failed. The second IVF They did in the US that also failed, and it was the first failure in Dr James Daniel's career. All medical reports pointed to the fact that They were both medically fit to have children but none came after ten years.
Beside childlessness, They had loads of problems in Their marriage. Nneka marriage with Kashim was like hell loosed on them. They attempted many spiritualists and prayer houses but They couldn't get help. Their search for a baby led them into many abominable things and almost stole their salvation from them. The frustration, humiliation and anxiety was unspeakable. It was so bad that one of the prophets they went to had to sleep with Nneka right in the presence of his husband and then asked his husband to do same thereafter.
Assuring them that his sperm will prepare the ground for Nneka husband's own to fertilize her egg to enable her conceive. That month, Nneka didn't get pregnant and the prophets advised they have to repeat the process all over.
Words cannot explain the pain and shame Nneka went through, having sex with a man she didn't love in the presence of her husband just because she wanted a child. It will be difficult to believe the second process didn't give the desired result and they had to do it again. This time for one week non stop. She was having sex with two men at the same time, one after the other in front of each other for eight days.
Toyin her friend, was her saviour who aborted the fourth attempt. They had scheduled to meet with that
Prophet named Adelaja for two weeks on the same process when she confided in Toyin her friend. "What?" "_" Toyin screamed.
"Are you out of your senses Nneka?"
"How can you accept to do this dirty thing because you wanted a child?"
"Don't you know only God gives children and his time is the best?"
"But why?"
"Why?"
"Why?"
She asked and bursted into bitter tears. This time you are not going back to that wicked and heartless prophet again. In fact, I will get him arrested and make sure he rots in jail. They looked at each other and cried bitterly. Toyin knew what she had been through all these years while trusting God for a child.
Nneka finally broke the silent, she said... "Toyin Please, Toyin you can't arrest the man. You want everyone to know what had happened between us?
You would obviously make me and my husband a laughing stock. Please drop the idea of arresting him, she begged Toyin. Toyin quickly adjusted her emotion and reasoned with her. You are right Nneka but that
man must not go unpunished. Do you know how many other women he must have molested like you?
He must pay for his evil acts. Toyin rained curses on him in her bitterness.
But how they both agreed with her husband to do such an abomination is yet a mystery to Toyin.
She then said, "I will take you to my pastor tomorrow for prayer and counseling". You may also need to carry out some medical checks on yourself. I just hope he hasn't infected you with dangerous diseases! It will never be well with him in Jesus name.
This man will not know peace, his children and children's children will pay
for his evil deeds. I hate him, Toyin boiled. She picked her phone and called her pastor, booking an
appointment with him. I will be coming with my friend, Nneka. Tomorrow was like a year to me, I wished
we could start going immediately.
But how am I going to tell my husband that we are not seeing Prophet Ade but Toyin's pastor? Nneka began to think how to convince my husband.
