“What? Why- why didn’t you stop her?” Tade was furious and at a loss of words
“uhnnn, because She’s older and she threatened to beat me if I tried?...” Jen sounded baffled over the phone. “I have two older sisters and most times I wish I was the only one you had. My credit is gone dad, call me back”
“Okay. But we need to call Kenny first. Would talk to you tomorrow. Goodnight” Tade hung up and turned to see his wife sobbing quietly on the bed with a lost gaze.
“Temi crying would not resolve the issue we have on ground… please don’t.” he pulled her closer and patted her softly “…first we need to call Kenny” he reached for his phone in his pocket and dialed Kenny’s number repeatedly a couple of times; after not picking up after about five times, Tade knew she was ignoring his calls on purpose and that just fueled his anger but he tried to remain calm for his wife’s sake.
“Why are all these happening to us now, all at the same time? God what’s going on with my babies?” Temi sobbed in his arms out of frustration.
“It’s going to be alright. God has great plans, He knows the end from the beginning. Let’s pray about it… God, we know you have all our lives in your hands and have great plans for us. We thank you oh Lord for that. We ask that you direct our path on the next steps to take and that you grant us clarity and peace. We also pray for all our daughters that you please keep them in your will and help them to know and love You more. That you will direct their lives in the way that pleases You and at the end of the day, Your will be done and all glory be returned to you. Amen.
