One Last Pop Episode 6 (Finale)

Aka Aka ya (The arm of God)

Aka Jehovah na’eme mma (The arm of the Lord does great things)

Olu ebube ya (The display of his splendour)

Nke na erurari na’ebem no (I see all around me)

Isi iyi nke ndu (The stream of life)

nke na dighi ata’ta (that never runs dry)

Aka Aka ya (The arm of God)

Aka Jehovah na’eme mma (The arm of the Lord does great things)”

They sang on and on right there in the hospital, Josh, his wife, mother, pastor and Charis connecting through Facetime.

Simi, I have a urge to go see Mrs. Lucy now, I don’t know why. Josh said immediately after the prayers. Wait with Dad and Mom, I’ll be back shortly.

Alright dear, the Lord will guide you all the way. Simi retorted.

Please I’m here to see Doctor Charis, which department or block am I to go?

Sorry sir, there’s no one by that name in this hospital Mr….

Yes my name is Mr Korewa Albert, but you can call me Kore, you mean there’s no Charis, are you sure? please check your records.

Mr Kore, I know every single doctor, both junior, senior, part-time and fulltimer by their name and there’s no one by that name.

Perhaps you check the next hospital few blocks from here, you might just see the one you looking for or at best, call the fellow.

Uhmmn…. that’s the problem, I don’t have her contact but I know she works here

That’s quite complicating, I’m the receptionist and also a care-giver here. Pardon me, I’m a little busy at the moment sir, if you would excuse me Mr. Kore-wa, thanks.

Jesus have mercy! Josh kept praying as he drove at high speed hoping to meet Lucy in good time as he couldn’t tell what could be going on as he tried to get her contact from their tenants’ Whatsapp group.

Meanwhile at home, Lucy had made up her mind to commit suicide, she was writing a long note when she heard tires screeching rashly in the compound.

“Who could be coming in so drunk and driving in as if he were on express” she said hissing.

Simi, could you help my husband get some fruits or perhaps something liquid, he has not taken anything yet. Mrs Azikwe said to Simi looking tired.

Okay mama, I’ll do just that, I’m coming mama. Simi replied.

Josh dropped his phone and ran for the door as Lucy was about to put the rope on her neck.

As Simi reached for the door she slumped.

Mr Azikwe started gasping for breathe and all of a sudden gave up the ghost!

Mrs Azikwe’s screamed!!!
