The Stole Of Nemesis by Orikinla(m): 8:58pm On Jul 12, 2014 |
1 Louisiana’s Supreme Court has ruled that a priest may be compelled to testify as to what he heard in the confessional in 2008 concerning an abuse case. But the priest, Fr Jeff Bayhi, faces automatic excommunication if he breaks the seal of the confessional. But he also could face jail if found to be in contempt of the court should he refuse to testify. Father James Thomas smirked as he read the news report and sighed. He was tired and really wanted to sleep after a busy Saturday of hearing many confessions. He removed his purple stole, his black cassock and black trousers. He was now in his white underwear and black socks. He stood akimbo and gazed at the framed Italian cheval mirror beside his bed. An image flashed behind him. It was the image of a bearded man hanging from the ceiling. The news would be he had committed suicide and the note on his bed was enough evidence that he was too ashamed to continue living after raping his only daughter. And nobody would know it was homicide. The society would be safer without his latest victim. He strangled him and then hung his corpse from the ceiling. The brute was too shocked to believe that the same priest he had confessed his terrible sin to was going to kill him. Who would be next? He had a long list. © Orikinla Osinachi. 2014.

What's the settings of the story? with careful plot development, it'd be intriguing. A very nice introduction. Well done, sir. |

LarrySun: What's the settings of the story? with careful plot development, it'd be intriguing. The quoted intro from a true news report and the response of Father James Thomas to the report shows that it is happening in America and in the present 21st century. But I have not made up my mind on the city in the US. It is a crime thriller and I have to go through real life crime reports to be able to develop credible plots. |

Orikinla:It's supposed to be a fiction, right? If it's, I wonder why a real report has to be created. |
Re: The Stole Of Nemesis by Orikinla(m): 6:56pm On Aug 01, 2014 |
LarrySun: It is allowed in fiction and shows that the story is based of the realities of the time. |
Re: The Stole Of Nemesis by LarrySun(m): 7:06pm On Aug 01, 2014 |
Orikinla: Okay. Keeping my fingers crossed. |

I updated this story recently, but the post seems to have been removed or what? And I was updating it right on Nairaland. ********** Father James Thomas was sitting in his mahogany armchair with his elbows resting on his Harmony reading desk and sipping a cup of coffee whilst reading from sheets of white paper. He had avoided the Saturday vigil, because he had a date with Ms. Henrietta Morgan. His next target. A shameless adulterer who had wrecked many marriages and left the wives of her lovers heart broken. In fact, one of them Mrs. Gwendolyn Jumoke Raymond took her own life after her cheating husband beat her up for daring to attack Ms. Morgan two Sundays ago. The Nigerian woman was a devoted member of the Community of the Beatitudes in his parish and never missed any mass no matter the weather, except only when she was ill. But she always made sure her white husband, a middle class mortgage broker brought their two lovely kids. Deborah, the beautiful 10 year old girl who often smiled with glints in her brown eyes like her father and Washington, their 7 year old son who would always remind him of his mother, because he was like a male copy of his black and beautiful mother. Her tragic death was what provoked him to finally decide to put an end to the adulterous escapades of the Jezebel. He always loved to read before his missions. Reading calmed his nerves. Especially reading classic thrillers of historical fiction. If we don't get rid of evil doers, their evils will never stop. And the only way to stop their evils is to get rid of the evil doers. He smirked as he continued reading. One hour more and he would be on his way. It was a cold night and only two weeks to Easter. The Rubicon Triangle |

Okay. A typical Jack the Ripper on the loose. Nice one. *But I thought it ought to be 'vigil' instead of 'night vigil', and I don't seem to get the significance of the ![]() |
