Abena's passion story
Chapter 10
Kwasi's POV
We've been in the hospital for almost 30 minutes and those
silly doctors haven't said a thing.
I was getting frustrated.
Ray was panting and walking up and down.
He kept on screaming God's name, and saying things that I
didn't bother to listen to..
I can't lose Abena.
No!!!
I can't leave without her.
Then I remembered what she said before hanging up.
"Make sure you come this evening before I serve my
purpose".
"No!! No!!!...let it not be!!! Argghh!!!!"π’π’
"What is it??" Ray asked me scared.
"Abena..."
"What???!!!, you're freaking me out!!!"
"She said...."
The sight of the doctor cut my words short as we ran to him
panting.
He had a gloomy look.
"Do we need to beg you to talk" Ray saidππ
"I'm sorry. She didn't make it... She...."
"We both screamed in pain"
ππππ
This can't be happening.
"Why didn't you guys keep her alive!!! What's the
stupid use of this hospital!!!!!" Ray shouted.
"She was brought in late, there's nothing we could
do..we tried our best".
"You all are the dead ones!!!! My Abena is not dead you
hear me!!!" He said storming out of the hospital.
"Can I see her?"πͺπͺπͺ
"Sure"
I went into the room and they had covered her.
I couldn't stop the tears from flowing.
I took the cloth off her and cried on her.
Abena whyyyy!!!
Why did you have to leave me?
Of all places to die.. You chose your bathroom???
You didn't say goodbye!!!
You just leftπππ
I stared at her lifeless body. I couldn't believe my eyes.
Someone that I was just talking to few hours ago.
I saw her lips dried and faint.
I won't get to see those lips moving. No words,, no laughππ
God why???
Just after she gave her life to you, you decided to take it
out of herπππ
Abenaπππππ
The doctor came in with her aunt and the family.
I called them right after we brought Abena to the hospital.
I knew they were not really on good terms but they cried
genuinely.
ππππππππ
****
I was about to leave the hospital when I saw Ray come in
with A man.
And he was still in tears.
I followed them to where Abena was.
Then he screamed.
"You said she had a purpose in life... Now pray to God
and bring her back!!!"
The man smiled.
"Her purpose has already been served"
Ray laughed in a sarcastic manner.
"Does she look like Jesus Christ to you? So, her
purpose is to die... Die for who?"
"Her story is a reminder to people out there. She's
been blessed dear. If she hadn't given her life to Christ, she would have died
a sinner. She was as stubborn as Paul in the bible. But God still interceded
for her and she changed at once. I'm sure she's with him up there".
"Up there?? She should be here with us!!!! Why aren't
you dead yet? Why her?"
"It's all the lords doing. He knows best and we can't
question him".
"What about me. Why didn't he take me too?"
"It's not yet your time. You are to tell the world her
story. And do your best to follow Christ footsteps so that you can meet her up
there too. I'm sure she's happy where ever she is. She wanted eternal happiness
and she got it"
πͺπͺπͺπͺπͺπͺπͺ
"I can't keep on living".
"She's still in your heart right? So she's still in
you. So just go out there and find other lost souls. God used you to bring her
to Church that day. Make yourself available to others to. No one knows when
they're going to die".
πͺπͺπͺπͺπͺπͺ
I approached Ray and tapped him.
"Thank you"
"For what?"
"For being the vessel God used to help Abena".
"What's the use? She's gone"ππ
"She knew she was going. She told me to make sure that
I come today before she serves her purpose"
"Hmm"πͺπͺπͺπͺπͺπͺ.
"Listen to the prophet. It hurts me too, but God knows
best. I'll help you to help others. Maybe that's my purpose too. Winning souls
for Christ and I'll want to meet Jesus and Abena up there. So I guess I'll follow
Christ in his footsteps. I also want eternal happiness. I don't know when I'll
die. So now is the time for me to change as well" I said forcing a smile.
"I guess my work here is done. Abena's story just
changed a life right now. Make sure it changes others. God bless you both"
He said stepping out.
