2- Atrocity in the convent.

Amari.

There was a short knock on the door, Amari yawned and lazily got out of bed, she reached the door and didn't bother to ask who the person was, only her two closest friends, Georgina and Bethany would disturb her sleep at this odd hour.

"What is it this time?" She asked as she opened the door.

"I haven't seen you in a while, what's the problem?" Georgina whispered entering the dorm room and sitting on her bed.

"Nothing is up, I have been busy with teaching  adults." Amari answered rolling her eyes.

"I told ya but you wouldn't listen." Bethany said, hissing.

"Calm down Bethany. I just wanted to confirm." Georgina said.  "So you'll be moving to the staff quarters?" She asked.

"Yes." Amari yawned "later today, I've been given this day as an off so I could pack out to my quarter."

"Turns out  we're staying together with Mercury." Bethany said rolling her eyes at Georgina.

Georgina scoffs "Lord forgive me, but what sort of parents name their child Mercury."

"Gina, do not sin." Amari warned.

"I said the Lord should forgive me." Georgina defended herself.

"Well, since my job is to teach older people, I'm told to not share rooms, so it's me alone In my quarter or with one person, I don't really know." Georgina added.

"So Sister Agatha has left the convent."  Bethany sighed.

"We will miss her. She's old now so it's best her children comes to take her away."  Amari said stifling a yawn.

"It's three in the morning, wow, who's chasing the time!" Georgina commented.

"Let's go to our dorm." Bethany said already getting up  and reaching for the door.

While Amari was checking around the empty hall to see if it was truly empty, she noticed two shadows coming up and called her friends attention to it.

"I can't see." Georgina whispered so Bethany adjusted well for her to see.

The shadows came into a view, the female stood in front of her door while the man pinned her to the wall and they shared a kiss, his hand groping her breasts. The female said something that was inaudible before entering her room.

"Holy Mary! Isn't that Sister Mercury and the young reverend Joshua." Georgina noted.

"They're both young point of correction." Amari said.

"My cousin has been a whore right from time, I wonder why her mother brought her here." Bethany scoffed.

"Are you sure he's gone?" Amari asked.

"Yes, he is. We have to go to our dorm now, it's the other way not the other way out of this dorm section." Georgina explained holding Bethany hand as they left.

On their way to the dorm, Georgina said "your cousin is a fornicator such character is so bad in this convent."

Bethany glanced at her from the side of her eyes "that's her problem."

"Let's hurry before we get caught." Georgina said holding Bethany's hand.

"Weren't you the one looking for confirmation at three in the morning."

"Tell me you weren't happy to see Amari. It's been few days of not seeing her." Georgina said opening the door of their dorm and entering, closing the door after Bethany.

Amari went back to bed, pondering how some of the sisters do not have the fear of the most high by doing the unclean things.

A lot of times she had caught some of the nuns and priests doing what they shouldn't especially as the convent is seen as the house of God.

One time, she found sister Beatrice smoking cigarettes in the staff toilet while mass was going on in the church. On this said day, Amari was pressed and could not really hold the pee as she needed to ease herself, the uncomfortable action was beginning to cause her irritation and a frown was starting to form on her face, so she excused herself as she walked through the pew trying not to step on people's toes.

The smell of cigarettes pervade the air as she knit her face in disgust, literally she knew what the smell was but what she wanted to know was who would be smoking in a place like this and at this hour.

Retracting her steps, she starts to tip toe, as the Lord of Lords would kill her cat with curiosity, the sister came out and Amari almost froze up where she stood.

"Sister Beatrice." She said.

"Were you sneaking on me?"

"No!"

Sister Beatrice deride at Amari "or you came to do the forbidden?"

It was then Amari remembered that any seconds from now, the urine will drop, she ignored the sister who waited outside the bathroom door.

"I was pressed. I have no forbidden things to do." Amari snickers.

Sister Beatrice eyed her, taking the holy Mary perfume and spraying herself after rinsing her mouth with the tiny handy mouthwash she carries about and using her cincture to hold it in place.

"you didn't see me, Amari." Sister Beatrice said in a stern voice and Amari nodded in agreement.

"Lord forgive me." She said in her heart.

The second atrocity she saw; One of the young priest with Bethany's cousin Mercury having sexual Intercourse in one of the guest dorm room.

Sometimes, Amari marveled at how her eyes sees evils and except for sister Beatrice they never know that she sees them.

Amari adjusted her pillow, sleeping in a fetal position and singing a song of worship in her heart. She welcomed sleep.

Today, Amari was going to move out from the sister's dormitory to staff quarters, sharing apartment with Bethany and Mercury,

Georgina wasn't going to be with them as her position in the church is higher and would be staying with an older woman, Sister Mary.

Sitting on the bed, her face cupped in her chin, she breathes out hard, nobody told her moving out from one house to another was stressful, as she sighs now and then, someone knocked on her door.

"Sister Amari are you in?" The voice asked.

"You may enter."

The sister enters the room, "you have a visitor."

"Who is it Sister Brenda?" Amari asked not feeling too excited.

"Your Aunty Marie." Sister Brenda answered.

Amari leapt for excitement as she jumped up and ran out of her room to the visiting centre.

Seeing her Aunty she threw herself on her, Aunty Marie. "It's been so long ma."

Her Aunty laughed "Last year, look at you, more grown than I saw you last."

"Stop teasing me." Her eyes noticed the small baby bump and squealed in happiness "You're pregnant again." Amari said.

"Yes I am. Matthew insisted for another child after the twins."  Aunty Marie chuckled.

"Let's sit."

"It's been seven years Amari, when do you plan on coming to the outside world. You have a lot waiting out there for you."

"What did the Bible say about seeking the kingdom of God ..."

Aunt Marie cuts in "You've put God first and you're still putting him first, he's not restricting you from having another life better than living in the convent all your life."

Amari sighed "I'll be out soon. Don't rush me."

"When you grow old. I know." Aunt Marie chuckled.

"How are your family?"

"They're fine. The kids says hello and Mathew sent his regards too. They're really anticipating you. Maybe you can take some days off to visit."

"I'll do that. I'm a Sunday school teacher now and I've been asked to move to the staff quarters." Amari said drumming her fingers on the table.

"Oh that's great. Are you done moving out?" Aunt Marie asked.

"Not yet.I'll.." Her aunt cuts in.

"Aunt Marie you're pregnant." Amari laughed.

"The baby is inside my womb, I'm not carrying it on my hand." Aunt Marie hissed.

Amari was really glad to have her aunt around as she has missed her so much, so her presence now will bring a lot more of happiness to her.

On their way to her dorm, they met Georgina and Bethany, seems like they were waiting for her, as they reached the main entrance, she noticed Bethany and her cousin, Mercury having a heated argument in  low voices.

"I'm better than you who has always been jumping from one manhood to another without shame." Bethany said in her face.

Mercury scoffs "So you're calling me a Jezebel, what I am not?"

"Cut me the crap, I've seen you a few times with two different priest." Bethany blurts out.

Mercury flipped her hair "I see! You've been sneaking on me. Do you get aroused you little bitch."

"Lord Forgive you." Bethany said shaking her head.

"Did you tell the Lord to forgive you when you murdered my father."

"Your father was a hell of a pedophile and he would rot in hell." Georgina said.

"And if your father were alive, she would murder him again and again." Amari added and they turned to look at her.

"How are you so proud to be a daughter to a pedophile, if i am to justify your sleeping around from a tender age." Georgina started.

"Age twelve." Bethany said.

"At age twelve, I'm very sure your father must have indulged you too." Georgina finally said it.

Mercury gave them a hard glare before turning around and went the other way.

"Don't let her get to you." Georgina said. "Hello aunt Marie." She greeted.

"That was really heated." Aunt Marie commented once they reached inside Amari's room.
