Episode 15.

– PASTOR RUTH –

I am lying in bed with the covers surrounding my waist, reading the bible when Kingsley walks in. It is thirty minutes past 10 P.M. and he should have been home a long time ago. I tried to call him the entire evening to find out when he would be home but I couldn’t get to him.

Taking off his jacket, Kingsley hangs it neatly on the back of a chair. Then he removes his tie and draps it over the shoulders of his jacket. After he takes off his shirt and trousers, he heads towards the bathroom.

Kingsley didn’t even regard my presence so I patiently wait for him to get out of the bathroom so I can give him a piece of my mind

He walks out of the bathroom, humming some silly song a couple of minutes later.
“Where did you go?”
“I went out.”
“With who?”
“You know I have a life away from you?”
“I couldn’t even get through to you.”
“That’s because I was catching up with some friends.”
“You are a man of God. A father to many, you can’t just turn off your phone, what if there was an emergency somewhere and…”

“That’s why I have pastor’s in the church to handle certain things. The fact that I am a man of God doesn’t stop me from loving my life and enjoying myself.”
“Enjoying yourself with other women?”
“Where’s the insecurity coming from?”
“I know you have started again Kingsley. My gut feeling is telling me you are back to your old ways.”
“Your gut feeling is obviously lying to you.”
“My gut feeling has never been wrong.”
“Allow me to sleep in peace. We have prayers at midnight.”
“You have caused me so much pain, Kingsley. All I ask is that you at least keep your trousers closed or use protection this time around.”
He shoots me an angry look.

“Because God knows I am not cleaning any of your mess again. You know you could have gone to jail last time if not for my intervention?”
“And you will keep rubbing that in my face?”
“So that you can at least learn from your mistakes.”
“Ruth! You are too old for all this jealousy. You can hi ohene ome on+233544142683 to be added to Story headquarters room. I take care of you very well in this house. I give you everything you ask for, in fact you have access to my money. You are well respected in that church because you are my wife. Do you know how many women would die to marry me and have the authority that you carry? Instead of being dramatic you should be grateful I married you. And even if I decide to play around, I still come back home to you and that’s all that matters.”

“What?” I stare at him, unable to believe the trash that just came out of his mouth. He can’t even deny that he is cheating and I am more than certain it’s with the new girl- Tia or whatever she is called.
“Is it Tia?” I ask.
“What?”
“Is she the new woman you are sleeping with?”
“You need to stop.”
Tears begin to run down my face,” how long do I have to deal with this shit? How long do I have to pretend in front of people and on social media that all is well between us? Behind closed doors we are literally strangers.”
“You want to leave?”
“That’s not what I said.”
“Then this issue is closed. Like I said, I want to sleep and I don’t want to be disturbed. If you still want to cry you can leave the room and come back later.”
“I wish people knew the kind of man that you are away from the church doors,” I say, wiping my face with the palm of my hand.
“Well it’s a pity they will never be able to know.”
I stand up so I can head to the spare bedroom. I don’t think I can sleep next to a man as arrogant as he is.
“And Ruth,” he says as I am about to exit the room.
“What?”
“I am traveling out of the country next week. You should pack up a few things for me.”
I decide not to respond instead I slam the door behind my back. When I get to the spare room, I open my Facebook app and search for Tia, spotting it instantly. Apparently this girl is even married. Maybe my suspicions are wrong. Kingsley likes young girls and he always targets the single ones. Would he be capable of going after someone married?
Maybe I need to approach this girl and have a word with her- woman to woman and if she really has something going on with him I could threaten to spill the beans to her husband.

I would never really go as far as approaching her husband because that would bring a lot of drama and obviously ruin my husband’s reputation. Kingsley’s reputation is the reason I am still here after all the shit he has put me through.

There was a time I wanted to leave though. When I found out he had fathered a child outside our marriage. I wanted to walk away but I just couldn’t.

And so we put our heads together and found a way to raise that child without people knowing he belonged to Kingsely. We paid his mother a lot of money to keep her mouth shut. We actually still pay her, the child is a few years younger than my Sophia.

There’s so much I have put up with in this marriage. So much of his mess I have had to clean up and he doesn’t even appreciate me nor does he respect me as his wife. I don’t understand why I am still here, maybe it’s the money and the fact that we have come a long way and I don’t have the strength to start over.

I just feel like I am tired and I have had enough. This man is well respected and most people in the church see him as their God, he is very smart and keeps himself clean in their eyes. Someday I wish he is exposed.
To Be Continued… . . . .
