Hello steemians, it's really a privilege for me to relate with you in this very community. Today I will be sharing a short story which I titled:

Once upon a time, there was a man living in a village called, Iguu in Obokin local government ugon state. He is popularly know as Ogun falade the gate. He is a very powerful herbalist in the village, his firm was spread around the community as a whole, he was married to three different wife's and they gave birth to twenty children.8 female and 12male. Each of the children has an oracle name which they are assigned to worship everyday. people do come from far and near seeking for solution to their problem from him.

One day a woman came to the man shrine to seek for a child. Immediately she entered the sherine Ogun falada started telling her the reason why she came to him, the woman was actually surprised but after hearing much about his good gift she kept quiet and listen to all he hard to say. The woman hard issue of not giving birth and the man told her that the issue is from her husband family because they never wanted their son to marry her at first,but he was so much in love with her so he married her and it has being their tradition that any first wife brought to their family will have ten miscarriage before giving birth to her own child. He also said that the unborn children are being used for sacrifice in other to keep the glory of the family which was unknown to the woman.

After much discussion with him, he offered to help her so he gave her some herbs that she should always put it in here food and that of her husband before they eating it during dinner. Immediately she left the shrine and came home, prepared a delicious meal for herself and that of her husband then I put small portion of the herbs given to her into the food. They both ate the food happily and went to bath. After some period of time the husband mate with her and she was able to conceive again.

According to the family, they where expecting her to have a miscarriage as usual but behold he pregnancy keep growing everyday without any issue. So one day, the grandfather called the husband to asked why is his wife still caring a child in her worm but he said he don't know anything about that. So the grandfather went in search of solution in their family shrine and they found out that the wife visited Ogun falade the grate. He was very angry because he knows that falada was very powerful than him. So he went to falade shrine to tell him to release the child in her worm, but falade sent him out and told him that if he tries to kill that child he will equally die.

Month after, the woman gave birth to a bouncing baby girl. Immediately the woman gave birth that same day the wicked grandfather died instantly and the cost was reversed. And since then the family lived happily without any cost.

This story is not a fictional story but a true life story about my family, the woman was my mother and the child she gave birth to is me.
