THE JESUS SLAY QUEENS 2
Episode 95
© Ayo Omolayo
This is the day that the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. I woke up and observed my quiet time. As soon as I picked my phone and saw 20 missed calls.
You already know who was calling.
"Hello my sweet Roberto!"
"Hi! My Juliana. The Juliet that made me a complete Romeo. My mentor that mentored me into a good christian husband. Spiritual and romantic! Hula la!"
I just couldn't resist the urge to laugh hard.
"Please save all this compliment for after the wedding.
"That would be a better time. Because my brothers are expecting their nephew within 9 to 10 months."
"Haaaaaaaa! Romeo you are not a good person at all! How can we start having babies immediately we get married? At least we should give ourselves a year. Let me get used to married life. Being a married woman and a single woman are two different stages in a lady's life. At least one year of experiencing what it looks like to be married, shouldn't be a big deal."
"It's a wonderful thing getting to learn what it looks like to be a married woman, with a bulging stomach."
"Please it's not you that we carry this pregnancy. It's easy for you to drop it there and go about doing your business. It's me that will not be able to sleep because of your hand work."
"Yes oooo! I'm not a lazy man. I always make my daddy proud."
"Abeg ooooo! Mommy said you should go and get busy with winning souls for the kingdom. She didn't say you should multiply the number of souls on earth. So if you want to make your daddy proud, go into the world and preach the gospel."
"Yes and the gospel starts in my house and a soul must be won tonight."
"You're not serious! Please leave me jare! Pastor Henry has spoiled you for me. This is not the husband I used to know. You have started listening to the counsel of the ungodly." I said admist laughter.
"It's people like you that need to listen to the counsel of the ungodly. You need to hear what the guy has to say."
"Please don't take me down with you. After all, you have always been the one saying that once Eve falls, Adam we also fall. I don't know where you are getting all this strange rhema this days, but if the fall of Eve will lead to the fall of Adam, I won't be the Eve that will go down.
If you choose to eat the forbidden apple, you're on your own."
"Don't worry, after I finish eating the forbidden apple, I'll come and feed you."
"Get behind me with your forbidden apple! Salvation is personal and I will not have you stain my white garment," I said laughing.
"Actually this is part of the plans God has in store for us. I took Dad to see mom to this back. I told you about it, but we were unable to complete the conversation."
"Please tell me what happened?"
"Do you know that old saying that true love never dies?"
"Yes, what about it?"
"That's exactly what took place. It was a great reunion. Mom was completely broken and Daddy as well. The summary of the story is, they have decided to be a family again."
"Wow! Don't you think it's too late to start a family? They should be pretty old for that."
"I said that to my dad and guess what he told me."
"What did he say?"
"Marriage is all about companionship, not youthful exuberance. I have spent a huge portion of my life alone, waiting for this great reunion. From the looks of it, God has broken your mum. You and your brother are fully grown men. You cannot live with me in the same house anymore. I'm going to end up in lonely man which I do not bargain for. So if God is providing me with companionship at this time, then it is divine."
"Haaaaaaaa! Can you see what you would have done to my father-in-law?"
"What did we do?"
"You've made him a lonely man."
"It's not my fault, it's the Bible that says a man shall leave his father and be joined to his wife. So before you start accusing me, start with the Bible."
"I cannot accuse the word of God. Do you want to kill me?" I said laughing.
"Actually Juliet, I want to use this opportunity to admit how excited I am to find out you agreed to marry me. I find myself the most luckiest man on Earth to call this rare gem my wife."
"Finally, you admit it. What Mummy said is true. We the ladies are doing you guys a favour by marrying you."
"Haaaaaaaa! Juliet don't let me open your episode. Have you forgotten how you chased me to the car park, knocking on my car window? Have you forgotten how you were crying because I was proposing to you without a ring? Why are you people so proud?" He said admist laughter.
"Romeo you no try at all! You packaged everything I wasn't proud of and rubbed on my face as makeup for my wedding day. Is well oh! God will reward you sha!" I said grinning.
"No ooooo! I was only trying to make you understand you are a rare gem. My missing ribs and the only woman that makes me have complete set of ribs."
"So that all I am to you. I'm only an addition to your incomplete set of ribs, right?" I asked smiling.
"Not just that! You are the woman that makes my life complete. You came into my life and ever since you stepped in, something followed you from the spirit realm. It's called favour from the Lord. Just like the word of God says, he that finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favour from the Lord.
Juliet, you are my good thing. And most importantly, you came with the favour of the lord into my life. I was busy praying to God. Oh lord show me favour! Oh Lord show me favour! Let me find favour in the eyes of men and women! I didn't know the answer to the prayer was my marriage Juliet.
Immediately I proposed to her, come and see the way doors were opening. Those places I struggled to gain acceptance, I was given access for free. Those places where I was begging people to permit me, they just told me to walk in.
Unusual doors began to open on their accord. Because there is a package God gives to his sons called a woman. And the second name for a woman is favour from the Lord. The third name is good thing. The fourth name is Juliet and the last name is Thompson."
I almost fell off the bed out of laughter. Where did God pick up this romantic husband?
"I speak in truth and I lie not, you are a package of God's favour to me and I am ready to admit whatever mommy says. I could have killed myself if I had lost you to another person. I'm so happy God choose to show me mercy and insisted we be joined together.
Thank you so much for saying yes to me. Thank you so much for loving me and for paying the price to rescue me many years back. You have always been there to help me even when I was unserious. God has used you to bless me tremendously and now, he's going to use you more.
Thank you for allowing God take the wheel of your life. Thank you for saying yes to Jesus. I love you from the bottom of my heart."
Right now the butterflies in my stomach were too much. I feel like I was going to fly if somebody doesn't hold me down.
A knock landed on my door, saving me from floating in the air.
"Madam when is that conversation going to end?" Kayla asked.
"Just give me five minutes!"
"No ma! We are almost running late! Tell your man to hold on! It's almost time for the wedding and you haven't taken your bath. Your guests are already arriving at the venue. We have one hour to get you ready."
"Romeo! Can you see what Kayla is doing? She said I should end the call!"
"Oh my goodness! It's 9am already. The wedding starts by 10am. We need to hit the road."
"Are you leaving me?"
"Not at all! But we would talk later."
"Don't leave me!" I replied and started sobbing playfully.
"Haaaaaaaa! You don't want us to do the wedding anymore?"
"I don't know for her! Please talk to your wife!" Kayla replied because I had placed the phone on loudspeaker.
"I'm going to connect this call to my MP3. So I can be talking to you while I prepare for the wedding."
"Wow! I thought you wanted to take your bath and get dressed with your maidens around."
"Okay let's do it this way. I'll give you a call as soon as I'm through with my bath and I'll connect it to my MP3. in that way, I can be talking to you while I get dressed. Fair enough right?"
"But we'll meet in church and spend the rest of the week together. Why are you missing me like this?"
"Please sweet Roberto!" I pleaded, whining like a little girl.
"Okay! You can call when you're done taking your bath."
"Yippee!" I screamed in excitement.
"I love you so much! Bye!"
"Bye! Love you too!"
"Oya go and take your bath! We don't have much time left. Ablazers are waiting for your arrival. Please hurry up let's wed you guys fast and eat something delicious."
"I'm sorry!" I apologized.
Soon, my maidens got me dressed and all. It took one hour 30 minutes to get me ready. They wanted me to look my best. I communicated with Romeo throughout the dress up. He kept me company, but the girls were making me extremely shy. The threw comments at me that almost made me beat them all playfully.
I was so happy when I came out of the car in my white flowing gown. The smile on my face was endless as I locked hands with dad.
"This day I ceased to be the only man in your life. Finally I get to officially hand you over to another guy to spoil you with love."
"Awwwwnnnn! I'm missing you already!"
"Shut up my friend! If you were missing me you wouldn't have said yes to that guy!" He teased as we walked down the aisle. I chuckled and shook my head, grinning.
"My greatest joy is you didn't repeat my mistake. I remember standing at the altar watching your mom walking down the aisle. I thought I was getting married to the love of my life. Unknown to me, I was getting married to what would have killed me."
"Dad, you would have to save that comment for another day. Today, you're only permitted to make me smile, is that clear?"
"This girl can be so annoying!" He said grinning.
I looked ahead of me and saw my Romeo standing at the altar, a plastered on his face.
The men in suits and my maidens were all present. Kayla was my chief bridesmaid. While a guy called Ayo Omolayo, was my Romeo's best man.
"I give you this ring as a sign of my love. With all that I have, I am honored to call you my wife from this moment until forever. With this ring, I vow to love and honor you from this moment forward. This ring is a symbol of my eternal love," Romeo said, staring into my eyes with so much affection, as he slipped the ring into my finger.
According to Ella, I have been handcuffed for life.
To be Continued.......
Sorry about the delay. Romeo and Juliet seriously wasted our time at the hotel. They didn't want to end the conversation. Even when the maiden's were dressing her up, she was busy chatting with her man, as if the moon spend the rest of their life together.
If rice did not reach you, it's not of my business. As the best man, I had the lion's share
🤣😂🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
Congratulations Romeo and Juliet. I wish you a happy married life.
Juliet, you are my good thing. And most importantly, you came with the favour of the lord into my life. I was busy praying to God. Oh lord show me favour! Oh Lord show me favour! Let me find favour in the eyes of men and women! I didn't know the answer to the prayer was my marriage Juliet.
Immediately I proposed to her, come and see the way doors were opening. Those places I struggled to gain acceptance, I was given access for free. Those places where I was begging people to permit me, they just told me to walk in."
