Dark Night

Episode 4

Mr and Mrs Johnson with baby Gift, all beaming with smile could not contain their joy as they drove home. The husband and wife kept singing as they approached their house.
“Your name is Yaweh!
Your name is Yaweh!

You are the miracle working God.
‘Your name is Yaweh”
When they got to the compound, it was quiet as usual. Mr Johnson drove in and hurried down to open the door for his wife and son. Mrs Johnson came down and thanked her husband then walked towards the door. And then she noticed it, a basket carefully wrapped and placed at the side of the door.

Mrs Johnson: Honey what is that?

Mr Johnson: What is what?

Mrs Johnson: Look (she said pointing to the basket, Mr Johnson looked in surprise at the basket. Mrs Johnson continued talking) did you order for anything?

Mr Johnson: No ooo, stand back let me check out what is in there. (Slowly he walked to the basket and opened it, and then he shouted) Blood of Jesus!

Mrs Johnson: Honey what is it? What is in the basket?

Mr Johnson carefully unwrapped the basket and showed it to his wife.

Mrs Johnson: Jesus! Blood of Jesus, it’s a baby, who left a baby at our door. (They turned around and walked around but found no one. They carried the baby and went inside)

Mrs Johnson: Honey, who left a baby at our doorstep?

Mr Johnson: Honey I don’t know o, we came home together how am I supposed to know who left a baby here?
(She dropped baby Gift and unwrapped the baby, a note fell from the basket and it reads)
”Take care of her and love her as your own. I will never come back for her. I couldn’t kill her that’s why I decided to leave her for you because I know she is in safe hands with you”

Mrs Johnson: who could have done this?

Mr Johnson: it’s a baby girl.

Mrs Johnson: We must invite the police and then take her to the orphanage.

Mr Johnson: yes, that’s what we should do. But for now you need to rest. We just came home and you need to rest. I will make some food for you and Gift and after we’ve rested I will call the police.

Mrs Johnson: what about the baby, what will she eat? She’s hungry too.

Mr Johnson: okay I will make some food from baby Gift’s for her too.

Mrs Johnson: okay honey, you are the best. Thank you.

Mr Johnson helped her to the room to lay down and kept the two babies beside her. Then he went ahead to the kitchen to prepare some food.
