4.5 of 5 StarsWhat People Are Saying About It

"...immediately captivated. There are only a handful of books that
have done this to me in the past and they have become BLOCKBUSTER MOVIES
(Harry Potter Series, Twilight, and Hunger Games). I hold this book in
the same regards as these others...The imagination of this author is unbelievable!" -Amy Dewey, NC, Amazon Reviewer

"... a riveting page-turner filled with unexpected twists, action, suspense, raw
emotion, and thankfully some romance that is refreshingly engaging and
sincere. I'm eagerly awaiting the next adventure!" -Michael, MT. Amazon
Reviewer.

"The way that the "Visionaries" can see the future and try to stop murders is very cool...and then it gets all twisty and action-packed. I was riveted to my Kindle from the first page to the last and OMG that was a crazy ending!! I need the next one NOW!" --Indie Book Reviewer

"..."FREAKINFFANTABULOUSLYAMAZING" I don't feel that totally says it about it, ...I loved this book, words can't describe my amazement towards it." -Cassie, Goodreads Reviewer

"The In Between takes you on a thrill ride reminiscent of The Matrix and The
Hunger Games. The author draws you in through the two widely disparate
lead characters...you find yourself breathless to see what happens
next." -- J. Lake, Montana

"I loved this book! I read so much YA paranormal/fantasy/ sci-fi it all starts to seem sorta the same after a while. Not with this book! Author Catherine Converse creates a wholly original world and characters that felt refreshingly new." --Indie Book Reviewer

"...Converse captures the reader's hearts with characters we can all relate to, while providing vivid descriptions of locations that makes you yearn to be there. You won't want to miss out on this exciting tale that easily warrants you to keep the pages turning."
-- K. Gardner, Montana

'UNRESERVED' BEAUTY 2

 


Finally, I got the chance to know him. After over three months of failed attempts at that. And over twenty minutes of sitting idly on the balcony outside the church premises last sunday. You ask who? Who else? Of course, the 'prince' to my charming lady; the lady with the unreserved beauty.

When for over a month I no longer saw her in the church, probably because I wasn't looking well enough, since she no longer sat on her regular seat (this, I found out recently), or I had been away for too long, I'd thought she had left. The most probable reason being that her husband had been transfered in his place of work, and he'd instantly whisked her away with him.

I was elated beyond expectation when I saw a familiar figure getting up to go to the altar during second offering collection. I looked more closely. It was her.

Initially, I had already begun to grumble inside that the celebration was taking too long. But the moment I saw her, it stopped. And my intention to know who her husband was took over with rubbing me soothingly on the mind while reminding me that since they seemed to be commited christians, if I was really bent on knowing him, then I needed to wait till the celebration ended. I didn't decline.

Being the period of harvest, I had to wait for the seemingly endless calls and responses of families to thanksgivings. I heaved a mind-shutting sigh when we rose for the dismissal prayer. That was when my eyes took over the work of my legs; going after her wherever she went.

I watched her as she moved about greeting her friends, while I knelt on my pew feigning prayer, with my eyes wide open. As soon as she exited the church with her children trailing behind her, I made the sign of the cross, got up and followed suit.

She stopped when she got to the entrance of the exit door to buy sacramentals. I thought to lean against a pole near there and wait, but had a better idea. There was a balcony some distances away, so I just walked there and took my seat. From there I watched as herself and her children picked the items they wanted. I thought she would retrieve the items from them and return them. But no. She brought out money from her purse, calculated how much things they had picked and paid. Big woman.

As she left the place, her youngest son began to disturb for something. She opened her bag, brought out candies and shared to every one of her children, both young and old. Fact was they were all young sha. The eldest couldn't be over twelve years old.

When I expected her to start moving towards the car park, she turned and began to walk to the back of the church. Today na today, I said to myself as I adjusted to seat more comfortably. At this moment, I looked around to see if anyone could notice what was happening. Everyone seemed to be minding their businesses. Better! I Sighed.

Since my mind was already made up to end my curiosity that day, I wasn't concerned with how long I was staying. I whiled away time with watching the different groups of people clustered everywhere.

Then, all of a sudden, I heard the sound of a car horn behind me. Immediately, the children emerged from the back of the church and rushed towards the car. 'unreserved beauty' came out last. At this instance, I was already feeling reluctant to look back. I waited for them to get into the car, determining this moment with the sound of opening and closing car doors. I took the chance to turn when one of the children began to whine. From where I sat, I couldn't see the person behind the steering wheel through the front windscreen. What if the person was their driver? The thought occured to me suddenly. I rejected it immediately. After spending over twenty minutes idly? No, abeg. I decided to wait till the car began to move. Then I would look through the passenger's seat. But alas, as soon as the woman got in, she wound up her window. No way, I said to myself, turning my eyes till they were now fully on the car. I no longer cared whatever anyone thought, or who might actally be watching.

I took in his look in one quick glance as the car moved away, and what I saw didn't leave me feeling disappointed at all. I knew it was 'him' because he looked exactly like his last son.

He had a well built body. Dark, tall. He also had the sort of face required to keep such a woman. Handsome? That wasn't what was on my mind. Grim. For me, I didn't consider it a wise idea to keep a smiling face with having such a lady. If you did, before the smile left your face, another man would have disappeared with her. Besides, some of your naughty friends would be bold enough to crack jokes with you about how well they would fare with your wife if you left her with them for a moment.

As their Toyota Avensis car took off, I took another quick look around me to see if anyone had been watching. And when no face seemed to register any suspicious look, I made my way home gallantly.

For me, it was a fulfiling sunday. Wasn't it?

A WOMAN OF VALOUR; ‘Moremi’ Odukoya

I choose to call her that
Because that’s who she is;

A dauntless woman

Who chose to emerge victorious from her battle with the world

Even when she felt the strength ebb gradually out of her

Her hands stayed wrapped firmly around her fighting club

Her arms raised high in defiance for all to see

That her will to hang on to the end still held

Her fight couldn’t have been fiercer

Battle fit only for men that stood with their toes

And broke heads with their own skull-scraped heads
A battle fought only by maidens

Whose names remain emblazoned on the stones of life

She chose to conquer the world

And that she did in the most glorious way

Such which, only the powerfully inflamed heart can understand

I see you mother,

…Move on.
