EPISODE 6
Aba Bartels stood at the window in the upper guest bedroom that had been allotted to her, gazing out across the dark plains where Ledi had disappeared into more than two hours previously.
Reverend Yoofi Dudu had been inconsolable, sure that he had sentenced Ledi to certain death, and Aba had spent the best part of an hour trying to convince the old man that nothing was his fault, and that whatever had happened had been by divine declaration.
Finally, she had helped the man of God into bed, tucked him in, waited until he fell into a troubled sleep, and then Aba had ran to her room, locked it up, and began an hour of fervent prayer for Ledi Pedi.
Since the death of her husband she had never for once felt she needed a man in her life. She had stuck to her work, and loved God. Many men had tried, some to marry her, most to make a mistress out of her, but Aba had been resolute; she had no time for things of the flesh now. She was happy in the love of the Lord, simply working out her salvation through ‘fear and trembling’ as the Bible exhorted.
And then this arrogant, amorous absolutely charming man had trapped her in an elevator, and from there, within a couple of days, he had managed to make her heart care for his welfare.
She tried to tell herself that it was simply because he was a man of God in dire needs, a man of God with enormous pressure on his heart, a man that deserved her prayers.
But as the night wore on, and she thought that he might be lying dead somewhere up there on the road, Aba Bartels knew a pain in her heart she had not expected to feel. A pain that was almost as bad as the day her husband had died!
All for a man she barely knew, a man that had had an erection just by embracing her! A man that had fallen from grace, and obviously abandoned by God…a man she probably could do without!
But somehow, try as hard as she could, she could not settle the deep pain in her heart, and so she made supplications to God with much groaning, gnashing of teeth and tears until, finally, she felt the peace of the Lord settling over her.
There had been a time when her soul had felt absolute terror, as if something really dreadful had happened to Ledi, something like death, and she had increased her prayers and tears.
But then, thankfully, she had felt a calming peace not long afterwards. She had then thanked God for listening to and answering her prayers, and then she had come to the window to watch.
She didn’t know whether the peace she had felt had been the peace that assuaged sorrow; the peace she would feel if Ledi was dead and the good Lord was comforting her…
Or the peace that meant Ledi had survived whatever ordeal he had been in, and everything was alright.
She didn’t know!
All she knew was that her heart was at peace, and so she stood gazing out of the window for a very long time. She didn’t feel sleepy or tired, and she didn’t feel hunger.
Aba was just there, waiting for her man.
She didn’t know just how long she stood gazing out the window because time was not of the essence. But when she saw the twin lights of a car far in the woods, approaching the house, she gasped suddenly, and when she took a step nearer the window she felt the numbing needling pains of stalled blood flowing through her feet, and she knew she had been standing for far too long.
But that was okay!
She knew, without a shred of doubt, that it was Ledi Pedi who was coming back!
She turned from the window and ran out of her room, and then down the stairs with her heart thudding so hard that she could hear its thundering yammering in her ears.
Aba could hear the whining of the engine now, and knew that the car had suffered a breakdown of sorts. Her hands were trembling as she worked at the bolts of the door, and then she turned the key of the security door feverishly.
Aba Bartels opened the heavy door and ran outside.
The car had come to a halt, and her eyes opened with horror when she saw how mangled the front of the car was, as if he had ran it hard into a tree or a wall.
She saw too that the windscreen was shattered, leaving only jagged pieces of glass sticking to the frame.
She waited with bated breath, and then the driver’s door slowly opened and Ledi Pedi stepped out.
Aba Bartels gasped at the sight of him.
His trousers and shirts were tattered badly as if somebody had angrily ran his clothing through a shredder.
She saw that the shirt was stained at many places with dark red blood. She expected him to fall down, but surprisingly he began to walk toward her, his expression calm and strangely serene.
Aba looked at him desperately, her horror written all over her face.
“You’re hurt!” she murmured tremulously.
He smiled sadly.
“I was hurt, yes, but my body and soul is healed now, Aba,” he said gently, and then he scowled. “Are those tears for me? Thought you didn’t give two hoots about me, woman.”
And that was the time that Aba Bartels realized tears of anguish were coursing slowly down her cheeks and she had not even been aware that she was crying.
“Don’t you dare make fun of me, Ledi Pedi!” she murmured with much pain in her heart, and she saw how his face lost its lines of mirth, and was replaced by an expression of sheer divine concern that had the effect of making her heart yammer even more.
He took a step closer to her, and his expression was serious as he gazed at her intently.
“Oh, Aba, I’ll never make fun of your feelings!” Ledi said passionately. “I died a few minutes ago, Aba, but I am alive now, by grace, and I could feel your prayers for me. I had to continue my journey, but then I had to come back, you see, because I left something precious here.”
Aba Bartels raised a trembling hand and gently wiped her tears away so that she could see him more clearly.
“What did you leave?” she asked with a scowl. “A wallet? A pouch? I didn’t see anything, Ledped.”
He smiled then, a tender and most incredible smile.
“I left my heart, Aba, you thief!” he said tenderly, lovingly. “You know, I think the grey-haired Almighty God just played a trick on us, woman. I think He just gave us instant love. What I’m feeling for you right now should have taken about thirty years together to cultivate.”
Aba Bartels only nodded, because suddenly her heart was too full of happiness, too filled with love to make her speak. She could feel the great emotions bubbling up in her, and she knew that indeed this had not just happened.
“Instant love, Ledped, I guess!” she whispered finally with a smile, and raised a hand and gently, lovingly fondled his cheek.
“Yep, a crash course love!” Ledi said with a tender smile. “He’s a smart God you know, just tweaking our heartstrings like that.”
“Maybe not, Ledped,” she whispered tremulously. “Maybe that was how He meant it from the beginning, but we lost our ways. This is the right moment, I think. God never makes a mistake. His ways are always spot on.”
Ledi sighed deeply, and a troubled look came into his eyes.
“You know, I can’t blame Akua, my dead wife, even though what she did might seem so horrible now,” he said, the pain back in his voice. “She was just a stripper, a nude dancer! She was so far away from God. I should have taken my time to nurture her into a good Christian life, but I was so besotted by her beauty that I married her, thinking erroneously that she would fit into my world. But she couldn’t. The fact that I could see into the spirit world freaked her out, and made her shut me out. I made a terrible mistake with her, Aba.”
She raised her eyebrows.
“And what’s that supposed to mean, Ledped?” she asked quietly, although she knew exactly what he was driving at, and it warmed her heart.
“What I’m saying is simple, my Gem,” he said tenderly as he suddenly swept her into his arms and held her tight even as she struggled to pull away. “Hold still, my love, please. I’m not trying to rape you. If I don’t hold you I’ll probably collapse in the next minute.”
Aba stopped struggling and smiled up at him.
He smiled back at her.
“Listen, Aba my love, if you will also walk down the road of loneliness and fear, and hate me in the end, then it will be better if we let this new love between us die.”
“Oh, Ledped!” she whispered. “I’ve been under the feet of the Lord almost all my life, and through Reverend Yoofi Dudu and his late wife, I know all about the life I will have with you, Ledped.”
“And it does not bother you?” he asked, almost fearfully.
She reached up and touched his cheek again.
“What kind of woman will I be if the fact that my husband is a servant of the Lord bothers me?” she whispered, and then smiled mischievously. “Ei, I will be the one that will push you to go and do what the Lord says! At least it will guarantee me a place in heaven when the Lord comes!”
“Oh, I see!” Ledi said with a smile. “Billions of blue blistering barnacles, this lady has a hidden agenda! She has selfish interests!”
Aba laughed softly, and then without warning she suddenly felt his lips on hers…gentle, electric, probing!
Her teeth clamped shut for a moment, and she stiffened, but then as his tongue persisted she opened up tentatively, and then she was drowning in his kiss.
Hungrily, passionately, uncontrollably!
She kissed him back fervently as she had never kissed any man before.
“You two better stop that nonsense right this very minute!” came the sickened and cold voice of Reverend Yoofi Dudu as he came out of the house.
They broke apart with sudden cries of dismay, and looked at him.
He was still in his pyjamas, and he looked so tall and skinny that it appeared as if he were a ghost.
“Come here, Aba, and leave that fornicator before he infests you with his silliness!”
Aba, ashamed, turned and faced the old man, still holding Ledi’s hand.
“We’re both culpable, Father,” she said softly. “I’m sorry. You’re right. We shouldn’t be doing that.”
“I’m going to marry her, Father, as soon as Kuman-Po-Guru has been taken care of!”
“Come here, Aba!” the retired pastor almost screamed.
Aba was really depressed, but she stood her ground and continued holding Ledi’s hand.
“He’s my priority now, Father,” she said softly. “I’ll be at his side when he needs me. But I promise you, I’m not ever going to kiss him again, or even get into his arms again. The next time he takes me in his arms will be at the altar. That is my promise to you, Father.”
The old man still continued to glare, and then he looked at Ledi, and then at the greatly battered car.
“Road battle,” he whispered, and he trembled. “I saw it. You almost died. But the good Lord made a way, as He always does. Let me ask you, Ledi, are you okay now?”
Ledi smiled wanly.
“I’m home again, Father,” he said gently. “Now, would you kindly watch after this lady for me? I have to go back.”
“What, now?” Aba asked, suddenly scared again.
“He has to go back, dear, or he’ll lost Kuman-Po-Guru again. This time, put that bastard down, Ledped!”
Ledi nodded.
“Can I use one of your cars, Father?” he asked with a smile. “I promise to bring it back.”
“You bought all my four cars for me, Ledped!” the man of God said. “The keys are where they always have been. What I have is yours, son. But, a quick question. Are you sure? Are you ready? Can you cope?”
“I’ve never been more sure of anything, old man,” Ledi said softly. “This will be the final stand between me and that vile pile of junk!”
Reverend Yoofi smiled.
“That is the voice of the Unblind!” he said, suddenly elated. “Welcome back, my son!”
And a few minutes later Ledi was sitting in a white Lexus four-runner.
Aba Bartels was now standing beside the Reverend Yoofi Dudu, and her face was brave, but her lips still trembled.
“Stay alive, Ledped,” she whispered as she waved to him.
He smiled at her in the darkness.
“I’m not going to let any man use that body, walahi!” he said and winked at her. “I’m coming back to marry and love you…and hit on that body!”
They giggled, but Reverend Yoofi didn’t even smile.
“Fools!” the man of God said, and this set Aba Bartels off into peals of relieved laughter.
Ledi honked once, and then the powerful car shot off into the darkness.
“Go with God,” Reverend Yoofi said.
“And may God bring you back safely to me, my love,” Aba Bartels whispered.
Ledi drove on…
It was him against a vile demon.
One of them would not survive…but it definitely wouldn’t be Ledi Pedi.
He didn’t know, though, that very high in the sky, two pairs of terrible red eyes looked down on the car…and followed.
The battle had been accepted.
Kuman-Po-Guru was ready too as it hovered over the car relentlessly.
