A week later,one cool evening, the two was busy with there novels and waiting for bed time, they wanted to sleep on time, because of the senator's party they don't want to miss. There door was pulled open and Doris entered with her luggage " children of God good evening ooh,remain blessed". Betty never replied,Linda broke the silence "oh Doris you are back already, welcome back to our new room,hope you like it". " by the grace of God, this room is nice,am liking it,it has enough space, God bless you for choosing this room for us" Doris said . "Amen Doris" replied Linda. "why won't she like it,does she have a choice pauper like her" Betty said arrogantly. Linda couldn't bear this insult and said "shut up Betty and please be nice to her even for once,please Doris don't mind her". " sure sister Betty I won't, let God be the judge that is all"added Doris. Betty stared at her arrogantly and said "and He will judge you first nonsense". " Betty!!,what has come over you" Linda shouted. "Please Linda allow me to talk let me tell this sister Mary a piece of my mind, look sister Doris or whether you call yourself, why must it be our room,why not look for any other room of your choice, we have plenty of them,but you still choose this one,okay fine, I won't chase you away but listen attentively, this is a new room and if you want peace to reign,stop preaching all those your sermon, we have heard enough so please stop,allow us to leave our life in fullest since you don't want to live your own, I have said my own" retorted Betty. Linda stared at her saying "are you done?.so this is all you have to say,please sister Doris like I said don't mind her, as far as am concerned we will leave in peace okay". " thank you sister Linda and may god bless you for saying this, as for you Betty,I don't have much to say,but fear God sister Betty, fear god" Doris said and left. Linda faced Betty " really Betty, so this is it,what have you gained from this now ,tell me". " look Linda if you are scared of talking to her,me am not okay,someone needs to let her know her place here" retorted Betty. Linda stared at her" scared of talking to her you say?, Betty you of all people should know me by now that I tell you whatever you did that is wrong without hiding it,but in this case I never saw what she did as wrong, you and I know that even her prayers doesn't disturb us in the night and her preaching her sermon to us,you shouldn't blame her for that,she is doing her job as a child of God and a born again Christian,what you will say is you don't like her naturally and so please don't crucify her again next time " she said and went straight to her bed". Betty gigged " please nobody is crucifying her she is not Jesus". Linda ignored her and lay her head on the pillow.
