Capítulo 7: The trip to Africa 1
She kept running from the bedroom upstairs down to the hall. It was Saturday morning and David normally spends some time with her wife before meeting Miles to watch football. It could have been done in his house but Page is now Six months pregnant and cannot be doing extra house chores besides the two still don't get along well. She had left him alone complaining about back ache and had left to take a nap and 30 minutes later, here is his wife running down the stairs like a little girl who just got a candy.
"Kente, Kente, Kente" she run down the stairs towards her husband who stood there smiling at her action.
" Ma'am, how many times have I asked you to be gentle with my little boy?" he asked smiling and wrapping his arms around her.
" Your little girl, you mean," she said frowning. The page has these mood swings which David found funny and not wanting to irritate her further, he accepted her opinion without further argument.
" Sorry, my bad..is a girl," he said putting on his spectacles. Smiling quickly she sat next to him.
" I know the word now?" she said
" whew, I'm glad you now do" he replied since she has been having a hot head about this issue of not remembering her dream vividly.
" I'm gonna travel to that land" she started not sounding comfortable.
" You gonna do what?" Spitting the juice from his mouth, he asked shockingly but Page didn't reply.
" When? " he asked again.
" Summer," she said decisively.
" When did you decide this, and why are you now telling me? Are you hiding something from me?" he questioned her continuously.
" Dave! " she yelled his name which got him to calm down.
" God asked me to leave the country to where I come from or else..." she revealed.
" or else what?" He asked getting up and folding his arms.
" I don't know. He didn't tell me" she answered looking worried.
" And do you know which part of Africa?" he asked
" I'm going with you, you know?" he added and I rolled my eyes.
" Mr. bodyguard" I whispered and he hissed.
" No but he said the name of the cloth will give a clue about the country" she added
" I've to do my research" she started taking her sit and pouring herself a glass of juice.
" Oh, the name of the cloth is Kente," she said a few seconds after sipping some of the juice and looking at the juice in the glass as if something was strange about it. ( She lifted the glass in her hand and stared at it with a frown face.)
" Well sorry to tell you, I've not heard that word before," he said going to stand beside his wife.
" We have little time to plan for this trip. I need to get our tickets.." he said but stopped when he heard a voice.
" Isabella.." it was like a tiny whisper but he was sure he heard it.
"Isabella?" the name came out of his mouth in the form of a question.
" Isabella? " She asked touching his shoulder and questioning if he was okay.
" I'm fine but did you hear that?" he asked curiously.
" Heard what dear" she answered.
" Never mind..just thought I heard something," he said and she gave him a warm smile before dragging her feet into the Kitchen and David followed her doing the same.
" Stop teasing me Dave!" she shouted.
Dave's Pov
I wasn't going to allow my wife to go on some crazy journey to Africa where some eat human flesh. Besides, that is the first fruit she's carrying in there. l left the kitchen to the dining hall with a red apple in my hand. I was ravishing, and Page was delaying..she has become slow nowadays or I was just impatient. I removed my spectacles and placed them on the dining table after which I rest in the chair still chewing hungrily on the poor apple.
" Isabella" now the voice was clear and loud. I'm not weird like my wife who sees strange things in the spiritual realm so I got a little alarmed and stood up from the chair looking for where the voice might have come from. After searching for a while, I heard Page coming closer.
" it is all done. I told you to give me some minutes, now see" she said opening the food she brought. I rolled my eyes and sat down to eat but then the voice came again.
" Isabella"
I jumped up from the chair scaring my wife who nearly fell.
" oooh, what is it? I nearly fell. Do you wanna hurt us" she said pointing to her belly.
" sorry, but I'm hearing the same voice again and now it's getting stronger. I said trying to man up in front of my wife.
" ok.. relax and eat. I think God is trying to tell you something" she said comforting me and I kind of doubted it since I wasn't the kind to hear voices. Page on the other hand had been having these gifts since my father bought her for me as a slave. She was the Reverend's father's favorite but her mother( Victoria )didn't want her to go to church or even get closer to her father. I just got to find out from Page and her dreams that it had to do with the necklace on her mother's neck.
" You know, that necklace caused her to run from home and got her kidnapped," she said one morning revealing more about her dreams to me
" God told me she was being monitored by the necklace from where we came from" she added sadly. Moving from the dining hall to the kitchen, I heard the voice again.
" Isabella" and as I raised my head I said a figure passing behind the kitchen through the window. It was kind of creepy. I left the dishes I was washing and opened the back door...there I saw this guy in an all-black outfit getting onto a motorcycle. He looked at me but I couldn't see his face since he had a helmet on. Before I could accumulate anything else in my head, someone hit me from behind on the head and I collapsed. As I lay on the ground, I saw a woman walking closer to where I was lying. I raised my head slowly enough to see her face even though it was a blur, I knew it was Isabella.
" We had a deal, Dave," she said angrily.
" You agreed with your father that you will leave her after school! " she said lighting a cigarette.
" I heard you and what she was saying 15 minutes ago, you both wanna leave town" she added mischievously.
" Two weeks, bad boy I need an action from you or else.." she threatened illustrating the 'two weeks ' with his fingers.
"Isa, please she's carrying my child. Please don't hurt her" I used my last strength to plead but she walked away.
" Dave, could you believe it," Page said as she entered the kitchen but stopped smiling when she didn't find him in the kitchen and the tap was still running.
"weird," she said as she walked out of the kitchen. Ten minutes later, she was all afraid when she couldn't find him after searching the whole house.
" You said what happened? How could you be so careless?" I heard Miles scorning my wife and she kept on crying.
" You have to be arrested...you look suspicious" he stated but it was just because she was black. Miles has that attitude toward every black person. He treated them like that, unlike his father.
" Will you stop it" I demanded as I got up to sit in my bed with my hand on my head. They both turned to me with my wife crying but I smiled and I cried in pain as she hugged me.
" Isabella," I said and my wife looked at me confused then back to Miles.
" It was her," I added
" It was her as in?" Miles added looking surprised.
" She knocked me out and she gave me a warning too" I concluded getting out of bed.
" She might be crazy. What's wrong with her?" My friend kept on talking.
" Let me call that spoiled brat" he added taking out his phone but I shooked my head in a negative way to him.
" Ok, let me call the Police." He said again looking serious but I declined.
