Jesus Accademy

Chapter 4.

   For a moment it dawned on her that it might be James. On thought of James, she was furious at her seated  position.
    Her cell mate was one known for arrogance and sarcasm.
    "Oh, the  little princess has her first visitor"
Karena rolled her eyes in range
" and what is it to you Milan?.
If you have nothing to say, shut up.
    " watch your tone thieve"
"What did you say?"

Nathan interrupted with clearing his throat. But no one gave him attention
        "Excuse me ladies."
They both turned
" what?" They said together.
Nathan shrunk.

" woa pardon me  for interrupting ,I will come later"

Nathan  said turning around to leave.
        " No no pls don't go" karena said calmly
   Milan interruption.
" she is a very bad hit you should go and never come back"

     "Well I like bad, it's always a  good place for good"

Nathan replied with confidence as he motioned to Karena and sat by her against the wall too. The the only thing between them were the bars of iron.

    " hi my name is Nathan.
" hi I am Karena. I have not had a visitor since I got here and now, my first visitor is a complete stranger. Were and how did you know me enough to visit me? Or are you a lawyer? "
It dawned on Karena that he was a lawyer.
   " you must be a lawyer what was I thinking. Here I thought I had a real visitor. So who sent you? Cause I don't remember asking for one so spill"

"First I am not a lawyer I was led to you by...........
Karena won't let him finish.
" now I get it you were sent to suck the truth out of me. So are you going to hypnotise me into telling you the truth?"

  " not exactly. I am from Jesus Academy and...

    " you should leave" karena said arrogantly.
" told you she was bad" Milan said from the back ground.
" I was....."
" Officer" she yelled." I don't want to see this man again. Please take him away. "

   Nathan was showed away from the cell. While Nathan walked away,he turned and gave her a loving smile. Karena would not be able to get over it.
"You're even bader than I thought Missy." Milan said mockingly.

After the talk with  Karena, he gave Phillip a run down of what happened. Phillip was even more crushed by her reaction than Nathan was.
   Afterwards, Nathan made a stop at the hospital. Luckily, the girl was awake.

     " Hi."Nathan said calmly. "How are you feeling? , what's your name?"
He asked question after question but Jamie would not say a word. He left to the doctor's office to check if she would be able to leave that night.
Unfortunately, She was to stay another day. When Jamie heard this, she objected
     "No it's not possible. I can't stay here. I need to go home now." She said with conviction.
     "Sorry young lady but we need to observe you."

    "Actually doc , Susan can do that. You remember she has a degree in medicine."
" I don't know about that Nathan."
" it will be cool she will handle this. "

   " OK but my eyes are on you Nathan "
"Thanks doc"
"But you  have to wait a little longer for us to run some more test."
     After the doctor was through,Nathan carried her in his car to her house.

      "The name is Jamie. Thank you. " she said with a faint smile.
     "Well Jamie, if you need any thing call."
Nathan came out of the car and helped her up the stairs to her door. Jamie waved as she shut the door.
Nathan had a tiring day. He  drove back home.
  Nathan could not quit thinking of how he could reach Karena. As for Jamie he had a good start,all thanks to God.

    Nathan had woke up early the next day and began to have a study of the word. Nathan had to prepare a lesson for Sunday. He swept through his Bible expecting God to give him a scripture. After some few minutes of  searching, he went into a trance.
Nathan saw  a vast dark ground, no evident things around just darkness. Out of a sudden, he saw people appear on the dark  ground. Plenty of young people in tears, in chains ,in cages with wretched dresses and drowning in despair . They all wept in great agony. From were he was, he heard faint shouts of" help us"  from all the people there and Nathan was awoken from the trance.
    Nathan was grateful to God for the vision so he rose up and began to asks God for direction and meaning of the vision. While he prayed, the HOLY GHOST ministered  a scripture to his spirit. Romans 8:1,which says

       'There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the spirit '
 
   Nathan took his Bible, went to the scripture and read it and he had understanding of the vision. By the time he finished preparing a lesson for Sunday, it was 5am on Saturday.

    Nathan rose up and began to pray-- thanking God for inspiration.

It was Sunday morning. Nathan and family were getting ready to ho down to Jesus Academy,for a power packed service. Everyone was getting ready for church. When suddenly there was a loud scream.

" ahhhhhhhhh, Ariel shouted at the top of her voice.    
" mom ,mom " she cried as she came down the stairs.
"Ariel" Susan said drawing the last three letters.
"What's wrong?".
"Mom ,"  she said still crying.
"Aziel threw black water colour on my dress"
She said holding a pink flowery gown  up to her mother who was doing some swift ironing.
"Aziel" Susan said drawing the last three letters too.
"Mom it was a mistake"
"No it wasn't" Ariel said harshly with a frown.
"Yes it was"
"No it wasn't"
" yes it was".

"Ladies please it's only a dress we will buy another one"
Susan said loud but soft.
" thanks mom"

Ariel ran up the stairs giving her sister an angry look😠.

About fifteen minutes later , every one was set and heading to the car. While in the car Nathan played a soft Gospel tone. Andrew interrupted
       "Dad  it's getting a little too tight to breath back here"
Andrew said giving his sisters a look that stated clearly 'you girls are not serious. Over a dress. ugh Women.'

Immediately Aziel and Ariel , gave him a smirky look and exclaimed together and at once
" huh"
" bravo here I was thinking you would never agree on any thing. That's except threatening to give me a bath." Andrew said and in a few minutes they all burst in to laughter including the twins. And that was the end to the dress-- paint fight.
