Episode 44
Everyone was sitted in court as they waited for the judge to come in. Pastor Chris was led in by the police in chains, he was looking so dark, thin and pale. He turned to look around to see if Pastor King was there, because he was earlier told by one of the policemen that all his supporters had abandoned him and that even Pastor King would not be coming to court. When he didnât see Pastor King in the room he became so dull and sad.
Douglas and the lady who had accused Pastor Chris stepped into the court, different people who were obviously supporters to the lady were all there. Some members of the church were in court also but from the way they talked with the lady and frowned when looking at Pastor Chris he knew they were not for him.
He wondered if Pastor King had really abandoned him. He stood in the investigation box and looked up to heaven. The judge was yet to come and there was murmuring and little gossips in the court room.
Pastor Chris raised his voice to heaven and with tears in his eyes he called out to God singing.
âWhy should I feel discouraged,
Why should the shadows come,
Why should my heart be lonely,
And long for heaven and home,
When Jesus is my portion
My constant friend is He:
His eye is on the sparrow,
and I know He watches me;
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me.
I sing because Iâm happy,
I sing because Iâm free,
For His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me.
âSee him singing like an angel whereas his heart is that of a devilâ one of the women murmured, âshut up there o make I nor hit you with this stick when dey my hand o, one of the policemen shouted at him.
Just then the judge walked in, and everywhere became quiet. The people all settled in their seats. As the case was about to be called, Pastor King walked in, with sister Happiness, Brother Thomas and the new lawyer. When Pastor Chris saw them his face lit up as he smiled.
The case was introduced, and the lawyers stood up to introduce themselves. Brother Thomasâs lawyer introduced himself as Pastor Chrisâs new lawyer who is now in charge of the case. The lady suddenly became uncomfortable.
âWhat is it?â Douglas asked her
âI donât know, I suddenly became uncomfortable, I have a funny feeling that this case is about to take a twistâ she replied.
âWhat do you mean by that? What kind of twist?â Douglas asked.
âI donât know but something doesnât just feel right.â She said
âCouâŠâŠ..rtâ the clerk man shouted and everyone kept silent.
The case was about to beginâŠâŠ.
