The Devil In You

01

EVA'S POV

The August moon was shining so bright in it's glory, this is exactly the positive month people pray for good luck and fortune.

Fortunately this year's August decided to be good to me, it was indeed a month of blessing to me and my family, a month that brought positivity and divine turnaround to my life.

Let me introduce myself in detail, I am Eva Johnson, the second in the Johnson's family and the first daughter.

The title brought much honour to me in my family, the respect of my junior ones to me but that doesn't change the fact that we all play together and do things together as one happy and big family.

The Johnson's is really a funny home to be but one thing I don't like is my parent always making decisions for I and my simblings, we always oblige to their words because of the respect and fear we have for them.

Not withstanding, that doesn't change the fact that I want to be a news caster though my parents are never in support of it.

Well my dad as the head and breadwinner of the Johnson's insist I become a doctor, I never had any urge of wearing that white coat neither do I have the heart of pricing people's flesh, no I can't be a doctor.

My no to being a doctor made the mother and wife of the Johnson's happy and bring her own opinion of me been a lawyer my God this is critical honestly I don't think I can do it I mean I was taught in church that only God has the power to judge how then do they expect me to judge my fellow human being knowing too well that I myself is not perfect.

Being a lawyer and a doctor is taking a very big risk which I can't afford to be part of.

Okay as a lawyer, when you loose a case in the court you become a bad lawyer and that means loosing some of your clients, being a doctor, when a patient under your care died automatically you began to lose your hospital, No I can't be neither of them.

Even though my parents didn't support my career I stood on my ground and give them many reasons why they should respect my choice. Starting from my childhood stage, I have been adapted to reading and writing. I have passion for writing, talking and reading, this made my friends to tag me motivational speaker and also I was the head of social in my college.

Life is not all about doing because others are doing, it is a matter of doing what you love to do, your passion and vision.My parents were indeed proud of me standing for what I want even when they never approved of it.

I graduated with a second class honour and this August decided to favour me with a job both as a news caster and a journalist, this is a double blessing and deserve a double celebration I made it.

"I don't know what is still holding Raymond he is supposed to be here by now." I left the bed I was lying on to sit on my studies atleast to put one or two things down in my dairy.

Well Raymond is my boyfriend, my lover. He has being a good mentor to me, Raymond is like a father to me, he teaches me mentor me and helps me in making decisions, he is the most precious thing I have and would pray to hold on to for the rest of my life. He is a good man but we are cat and rat, we querrel, and fight but we know the best way to settle our dispute and problems, I love his nagging and mean face especially when he is angry.

"Good morning my beautiful country," This is my normal way of saying my morning prayers, my country deserves the best.

Well I need to tell my dairy the story of today, my party I got everything I want at 20 am lucky.

"Good morning mum," I greeted my mum when she walks into my room

"Good morning sweetheart, how was your night?" my mum responded hugging me from the back, this is already our norms

"Am fine mum, and I know your was fantastic?" I replied my mum rather in a full mood

" Like it always been my darling, anyways Abigail and Janet are here maybe they wants to help with the preparation," she said and walks towards the door

" Okay mum I will join them soon." I continued with my dairy that's my best friend

My mum can disturb me but I love her she is truly an example of good mother and wife no wonder my dad don't joke with her, I pray my own home should be like the Johnson's.

"Hey girl wasup?"Janet question immediately I walked to the sitting, it obvious they have been watching news that's why they forgot the road to my room

"Don't tell me you have been in this house all this while," Abigail said absent mindedly, well her own case is different always reasoning like she has no brain especially when she is engrossed with news

" Well you girls came at the right time, I need to get my party arena decorated and as well work on myself, so shall we?" No need talking too much I don't want to start augment this morning there is a lot on my head

"Yes madam," they both chorused at the same time. We went out to the garden to start our work and wait for the invitee to arrive.

? ABIGAIL'S POV?

I and my friends are known as the three wise women not men anymore, not as they say we are even more than that, I love my girls, we have been friends since our childhood stages we fight, querrel but we settle within ourselves.

We can't do without each other but we learnt that when we all have to go to different higher institution, we taught of quitting at first but no we can't do that we have to learn to live alone.

We are happy for Eva, when we heard the news of her success we are hear to celebrate with her.

"Eva why did you choose the garden for your party instead of the beach or other eatery that would have been much better you know," I taught I sounded so good, well we are busy with the decorations in the garden

"Yes Abigail made a point here and moreover why are we doing the decorations instead of party planners?" Janet pour in her own .

" Well I have the right to choose my party arena and as for the decorations if you are not ready to help then forget about it," The almighty Eva has spoken we have no other option than to obey .

"Anyways I need to go and call Raymond and remind him I wonder why he is not here already, don't spoil things for me," she said and left us to continue with the work

"Am tired already,"Janet said and sat down on one of the chairs in the garden

"I know don't come and start your laziness here," I hissed and continue with the decorations.

Ohhh thank God we are done it's time for party.
