"This is not working at all.". Vincent shouted. " What is not working?". I answered Vin. "Why are you pretending not to understand what I am saying?. You are proving difficult for me.". " Vincent, I'm helping you here, so be careful. Kathy is the one for you, and you better not let her down.". Murmuring to himself, Vincent, wondering how the two of them are dragging one issue.Vincent related many cases where Kathy's former boyfriend, gave him a tough time. There was a day he went to see Kathy as usual. Dropping from the vehicle, he heard a noise as if someone was crying out for help. His heart skipped. The more he was coming close to the house, the louder the noise and he was able to recognize the voice as Kathy, he ran as fast as his leg could carry him. He had to keep on banging the door before the guy could leave her alone. He opened and left. On getting inside, he saw the house in disarray, she broke down weeping. He got to know that the guy wanted to force his way i
Comfort and Vincent were becoming too Close for Comfort. Vincent tells her almost everything. He feels relaxed in her presence. They go out to dinner several times. There was this time, around while coming to meet him in the restaurant, the strap of her brassiere was out. Before reaching his side, he had stood up to meet her and helped to adjust it neatly. He checks the way she dresses and corrects when necessary, this makes Comfort uncomfortable. "What would people say? "became her slogan and he would always reply, "Are you living for people"? She had felt embarrassed by his loving and caring attitude. He touches her cheeks, notices if she frowns, fusses over her. You can say, he dotes on her a lot. He hates to see her discomfited. There was a day, he opened the door of the car for her, she screamed because she hit her hand on the door unknowingly. He rushed to her side and was asking endless questions, " Are you alright? What happened? What hit you?". He held her so close to his b
Kathy was reveling in her little revenge on Comfort, aided by sycophants of friends. One of her friends praised her courage for landing Comfort two hot slaps. "You have guts, imprudence to handle betrayals like her. Almost the same thing happened to me years back, a trusted friend of mine, a childhood friend stabbed me at the back. She got to know another boyfriend of mine and because of her Petty jealousy, she went to the first boyfriend who was stinkingly rich, informed him of the second one. Richmond is his name. Richmond called me immediately, telling me about having an affair with another man. That was the end of my relationship with Richmond. The other one too heard of it and cut off from me. I lost on both sides. That was small. I was nursing the wound of losing two precious sweethearts when I saw Richmond holding my friend, Charlotte in an open space. I discreetly followed, then my Richmond was speaking sweet nothing to her ears lovingly, then I knew they were in a relations

This is the summary of me, Princess, you melted my stony heart. Opening up to you has uncovered my wound that has been covered up for some years. Today, I breathe in the fresh air and I've started to heal. What transformation! You wouldn't know the value of what you have done. But be rest assured, we are together in this and I can never be the same again. Oh! I will sing, I will shout, even in the darkest hour of my night, I will sing, I will shout.". Comfort bursts into singing, feeling rapturous. Princess joined in singing along. Dolly Parton that sang" Coat of many colours" couldn't have sung better.Princess, carried away by her story and has been emotionally following her all the way, held Comfort in her warm embrace stroking her hair like a baby that has just been weaned. She was unable to talk, she felt, she needed the comfort. "Just like your name, it is only God that will comfort you. He will make you comfortable and settle you beyond your wildest dreams and imag
With the success recorded in the Christian Corpers Fellowship, Comfort was amply encouraged to do more. Encomiums kept coming to strengthen her arms, testimonies of healings of hurt ones were reigning. A kind of revival was going on. Comfort started to form a team for her new project. They met in one of the schools to discuss it. They were to choose between the two:Talk to me or Speak out. Princess argued that victims of molestation should be encouraged to speak out and not be intimidated. The name is suggestive and brings out the campaign properly. The need to be bold and not be shy is a must so that perpetrators can be judged and prosecuted. It will discourage such acts. One of the members felt it should be Talk to me because the people should learn to confide in people and talk, not quiet. Eventually, they agreed to use the two because both are good.Comfort and Princess went to a girls school to talk to the Principal about their project for the school. The princ
With the success of her campaign going on in schools, Comfort resolved to further it by taking it home. She knew what she was about doing was not going to be easy, but she is determined not to keep her sister in the dark again. One of the things that encouraged her was the scriptures that say, there is nothing hidden that will not be exposed. It was time for secret things to come out in the open. There are natural laws of the earth that opens up things hidden. The time has come for that. She knows her sister's home or marriage may be disturbed but the truth must triumph. Enough of fallacy. Comfort told her sister she would be coming home for something important. She tried to be inquisitive, asking for a clue, but she declined and told her to be patient. After all, she is coming home. Her heart skipped for fear but she held on to her conviction. Suddenly, she felt weak, what is the use of confessing what has happened several years back, is it not like stirring the horne
