Tick tock, tick tock, the wall clock
subjugates the stale silence, he seems enslaved by time now, its 3:48am, how
time flies, so it does, seven years married, no child with Modele, it suddenly
looks like illusion, time is passing with slow motion.
I feel un-repented, yet I’ve
brought many to repentance, oh gosh! Tonight is not the night for remorse and
self pity “Femi glides back to bed, feeling less dampy, he takes one last look
at Modele, briefly compassion and sorrow seems to overwhelm him, he reaches out
to hold and caress her soft body as she curls up needing want. Femi suddenly
retreats “man up, men don’t do that, she
has to apologise first” laying back on the bed either as defeat or victory, he
recalls the name of the car agent he’s to call “Mr. Waahl” surely I will be the
first Mr Waahl will be hearing from today. “As femi’s eyes lapses to close, he
replays his imagination of himself in the car for that’s all that matters now… tick tock tick tock.
It wasn’t the loud sound of crash
that suddenly woke Femi up, it was rather an inner urgency of his desires “call
Mr. waahl” turning to his side where Modele slept, he found she wasn’t there,
“she must have left for work”he thought,femi layed on the bed feeling quite
disappointed that she didn’t reach out to apologise”. “Anyways, that’s least of my worries now,the
brat can do whatever.ill do what I want I want how I want it” He checks the
time 6:45am, enough time to sort things out before I make my call. Walking to
the table on the far left of the room. He’s tempted to open his car purchase documents
again, but rather fascinated by a note beside the documents. He grins even
before he opens it. Knowing it was written by Modele. “finally I won” he said.
Femi opens the note casually, reading with interest, “Femi my boo, waking up to
go pee after you came back to bed. I stared at you and realized still, I love
you deeply and I will always love you.for all you’ve done I forgive you,I will
lay beside you now as your wife as God has given me to you. Am your friend too
you know, we’ll talk better in the early hours before I leave for work”. Femi
folds it back totally feeling out of place not expecting to be broken ,while
still in the gloomy mood of guilt. He hears a loud crash, a crash sound he
swore he heard some 5minutes ago but this time aggressively louder.
He runs to the balcony to confirm
what was going on.the image before him was chaos. His neighbor Dunkan ran by on
the street in mere panics, seeing Femi he shout “Femi, Femi” aaah!!! Everybody
is gone o, aah! Femi everybody.” His neighbors
screams on running and the chaos femi stares at confirms his worst fear.
THE RAPTURE.
