Tale 36: The vampire denture

When Saturday comes, Livia comes to visit me:

- You know, sister, I get upset when I think he sees someone else and not me. This almost certainly makes me constantly hurt. It's just that I like him a lot. - I confess, saddened.

- But did God show you anything, Ana?

- I did not see anything.

- So how do you know?

- I don't know, I just suppose. He won't be alone...

- Wow, he must be a prince! - she speaks ironically.

- He is not handsome!

- Then he must have a golden dick! Where his dick points... he takes it!

We laughed. -No!

- Pray for his dick not to get hard with another one! Ms. Dove is coming, and you won't defend yourself? - she firmly asks.

- I think you're right. - I answer, feeling downcast.

- Now, this has a price... - she warns.

- What price?

- If God says no, and you keep what is not yours, there will be consequences, and God will say that He did not want this for you!

- That's true.

- You have to be sure that, if something is wrong, He will find a way to let you know. God won't let you down!

- You're right.

- And there's another thing: if the angels don't say, the enemy will be in charge of speaking, or do you think he'll miss the opportunity to see you upset?

- You must trust God and rest. If he were another man, I would have the same concern.

- The Lord wants you to learn to deal with this and trust Him. There is another thing: are you open to receive the one that God is going to send?

- Yes, I want someone and be happy!

- Because God won't send a person to suffer for you! He may not be a Christian, but he will certainly be loved by God, otherwise He would not send him.

- I'm prepared to receive him. And when he arrives, I won't even remember Thor anymore.

Is there anything I can do?

- I wish I had the strength not to talk to him anymore. I feel sinful, and I feel guilty.

- Don't worry, at the right time, God will put a stop to it, and he will go away. - she reveals.

- You're right.

- As the Bible says: seek God first and the rest will be added, isn't it? Wait... I will pray...

A few minutes passed:

- I'm getting goosebumps. – says Livia.

- But did God show you anything?

A few more minutes...

- He did...

- What?! - I ask, feeling anxious.

A few more seconds...

- I saw the image of Edgar.

- Edgar?! I thought I would see another woman and my ex-husband shows up!

- I didn't see another one. I saw his eyes like a mosaic, you know? And the pieces got mixed up. He doesn't want us to know it's him.

- This idea, that he's with someone else, hits my head, day and night! I've been suffering for weeks.

- Edgar didn't do anything but asked to do it. It's so that you don't stay with anyone, and to harm the person on your side. It's a command demon that's interfering with your life. And you know: devil is cast out through fasting and prayer. I saw the number seven, it's seven days of fasting.

- Seven days? No chance! I need energy to work.

- It's long term, it could be seven Saturdays.

- I'm going to fast! The presence of this demon makes me unsure. I'm not like that! - I say, disgusted.

- What is happening now will be repeated with another man! - she alerts.

- I will start tomorrow, thank you sis. I'm going to hang up, I need to pray!

- See you. Ask for protection for your children and your home.

- For you too! The enemy is furious when his plans are discovered! See you later.

I kneel in the living room and start reciting "The Lord's Prayer." My prayers are interrupted by visions...

It was a vampire denture, like a toy, which came from afar and attacked me. As if someone threw it at me.

Teeth, teeth, teeth, I try to pray, teeth, teeth... An agony consumes me, I start to cry and recite "Psalm 91".

Teeth, teeth, teeth, I pray, teeth, teeth... My mind was entirely taken over by them.

I breathe in and focus more:

- Get out now, spirit of darkness, you that were sent here! Go away from my body, my mind, this house, my family, leave now, in the name of Jesus! – I expelled it from me, with determination.

And the visions finally cease. The next day I start fasting.

On Sunday, Edgar brings Luigi home.

- Have you already had lunch? – he invites me.

- Not yet. I reply, intrigued by the visions.

- Shall we? Luigi won't eat much because he had breakfast late.

- Come on, I'm already hungry!

We went into the restaurant, chose the dishes, sat down, and started talking.

- Edgar, are you going to church? – I ask, to start a conversation.

-No! I never went again after we broke up. I'm an atheist.

I was amazed at his change.

- The other day a believer came to talk to me, and I almost hit him! He said: thank God everything worked out! So, I replied: thanks to you who worked! Don't give credit to someone who hasn't done anything! – he says, feeling angry.

- And you continue going the center?

- I didn't go anymore! I'm an atheist! I don't believe in the devil either! I have a colleague at work who sits beside me and is a priest at a center. He asked: don't you believe? I'll call him for you...

I was sure that if something had happened, Edgar would let some information slip. Well, I've found out what I wanted.

- Calm down, Edgar, don't get angry! We need to talk about that.

After lunch, Luigi and I headed home.

After a few days, I find a vampire denture among Luigi's toys.

"How did it get here?" – I think, intrigued, and throw it in the trash.
