WATCH THIS BEFORE YOU BUY YOUR NEXT SHOE!

once upon a time there lived a famous shoe seller whose shop was in the middle of a famous Market in Lagos she was popularly known as iabat which meant the mother of shoes she was such a friendly woman who was easily loved by people she sold extremely cheap shoes and people drooped to her store to buy her shoes they always left with smiles on their faces marveling at the quality of shoes that she sold at a ridiculously cheap price other shoe sellers in the market grumbled unable to understand how she managed to sell at such

low prices without running at a loss but yata simply laughed and continued her business as usual unknown to everyone yata had a secret hidden behind her warm smile and kind words her shoes were not just ordinary shoes they did something to each wearer that no one could ever imagine one day a man named Dior brought his pregnant wife to yata store to buy some shoes his wife Simi picked up a fight with him over a text message he saw on his phone from her best friend Dio tried to explain to her that the message meant

nothing but Simi was too enraged to listen her heart pounded with Fury as she stared at him and began to speak I don't care what excuses you have di she snapped you've been lying to me and now I see it clearly di side running a hand through his head Simi can we not do this here let's just buy the shoes and go home Simi scoffed turning her back on him the shoes they had picked out sat on the counter forgotten yata who was standing next to them smiled and tried to convince Sim to buy the

shoes but Simi remained at man claiming that she was no longer interested in it seeing how uninterested the couple was about the shoe yata decided to play a trick on them to make them buy the shoe that they had picked she picked up her phone and pretended to be on a call with some customers who seemed interested in the same shoe yes it's available she spoke into the phone revealing that a customer just changed her mind about buying the shoe but if you come quickly I will keep it for you she spoke into the phone

again as Simi looked at her curious she glanced back at the shoe and she studied it for a few seconds she had already decided to let go of it but something about yata's words made her assume that if someone else was rushing to buy the shoe then maybe it was really valuable so timy decided to take the shoe for herself her husband di no noticing her hesitation sighed and pulled out his wallet fine let's just buy it and go home he said as he paid for the shoe that she had picked as well as the

second shoe that he believed would suit him yata smiled sweetly as she wrapped the shoe in a brown bag you made the right choice my children she said to them as she handed the brown bag to see me who simply smiled and walked away the drive home was silent and tense as Simi sat next to her husband in the car her hands folded as she sted out of the window Simi was fuming in anger because of the message she saw on Di's phone and the last thing she wanted was to have a conversation with him

di sensing how moody she was focused on the road gripping the steering wheel tightly as he drove a few minutes later they arrived their home and Simi was not in the mood to speak to her husband hband she walked into the house ignoring him completely as she headed straight for their bedroom Simi dropped the bag of shoes in their wardrobe as she proceeded to grab some food in the kitchen she spent hours cooking whipping up something to eat when suddenly she heard a loud scream coming from upstairs Simi holding her pregnant belly rushed up the

stairs in panic she arrived the bedroom and met her husband who was fast asleep Simi could not understand what had just happened she stared at Dio who seemed to be sleeping peacefully on their bed Simi wondered if it was her imagination she knew she heard the scream but seeing that asleep made her question if what she had heard was real she returned to the kitchen and continued preparing her meal moments later she was done as she s di his food expecting him to eat after the strange oral but Di did not care for her food

he informed her that he wasn't hungry and Simi could not believe what she was hearing for all these years Doo had never refused her food before even when they fought he still ensure to eat the food that she cooked now seeing him reject her food broke her heart in a way that she never imagined possible so you're not rejecting my food she asked her husband who hissed and continued his sleep Simi reeling in Anger rolled her eyes and left the bedroom she sat in the dining room angry as she St right at her food something

about Di's Behavior unsettled her he had never rejected her food before not even after their worst argument but tonight it was as if he had become a different person entirely see me tried to shake off the discomfort that she felt making excuses for him in her head Maybe he's just tired she thought to herself but deep inside something did not sit right the next morning simy had an appointment with her doctor she put on her new shoe and headed straight to the hospital when she arrived several routine tests were carried out and the doctors could

not believe what they were seeing her blood level had dropped drastically and the doctors were so concerned about her health are you feeling weak or dizzy the doctor aski who shook her head wondering why the doctor looked so concerned she sat there tensed as the doctor ran back and forth Whispering amongst themselves as they occasionally glanced at her with concern seei this is actually serious the doctor finally said to her his voice grave as he revealed that her blood level was dropping at an alarming rate if this continues it could put you and the baby

in danger he said as he informed Simi that she had to go in for an emergency surgery Simi could feel her word crash before her eyes she called her husband Dio on the phone but he didn't pick up her calls simine sat in the hospital bed clutching her phone as all her calls went unanswered her heart pounded as she wondered why di was ignoring her di had never ignored her cause before and Simi could not help but worry she sat there panicking as the doctor walked into the room to talk to her Mrs Simi he

said gently we can't wait any longer if we don't act now we could lose both you and the baby Simi swallowed hard nodding as she told the doctor that she had to go Dr F did all he could to stop her but Simi was hellbent on uring that her husband was fine after all she felt fine and could not go in for unplanned surgery with her heart filled with worry she arrived home a few minutes later to find her husband in the arms of her best friend TI Simi stood there and watched as she felt

a warm liquid trickle down her legs her baby was sleeping away in the same moment when she watched her husband wrapped in the arms of another woman a sh pain thought through her stomach as she began to cry in extreme pain Di and her best friend sprang up from the chair as the both stared at each other in shock see me DI rushed forward as he grabbed her by her hand and watched as her vision became blurred Simi fell to the ground unconscious as Dio quickly rushed her to the hospital a few hours later she

woke up in the hospital world to realize that her baby was gone her best friend TI was sitting right next to her with her husband di who did not seem remorseful about all that had happened Simi could feel her heart raised in Anger she laid in bed as di informed her that he was tired of their marriage I love your friend TI and would like to be with her he said to S who could not believe what her husband was saying Simi felt as if her word had crashed on her she stared at di searching

for an aota of guilt anything that showed that he understood the pain that he had caused her but Di looked so indifferent his face was blank as though she were a stranger not the woman he had vow to love forever her best friend TI was sitting beside him holding his hand her expression filled with false sympathy I'm so sorry Simi she whispered but Simi could not see any atom of remorse in her eyes she clenched the hospital sheet her entire body trembling as she watched her husband she ply at her best friend her baby was

gone her marriage was gone the life she had once built the love she had sacrificed for it had all been ripped away right from under her nose the doctor walked in in that moment to reveal to her that she needed someone to care for her Simi turned to her husband di who informed her that he would be so busy you can still stay at the house but don't Bank on me to care for you as said say am so busy he said to Simi who could not believe what she was hearing she laid there in

pain as she watched Dio and her best friend TI walk out of the hospital world as Simi lay in the hospital bed something inside of her shattered completely the Betrayal the pain the loss it all came crashing down at once with trembling hands she doubted a number she never thought she would and after several RS a familiar voice answered and asked if she was fine I need your help mother timy said to her stepmother as she burst out in tears her stepmother hearing how devastated she sounded asked where she was and after a few hours

she arrived the hospital in search of Simi for all these years Simi kept her distance from her stepmother she believed she was a wicked woman who never truly cared for her well-being but in that moment as she lay broken and helpless in the hospital bed she had no one else to turn to her stepmother Mama arrived the hospital shortly after receiving her call her eyes were full of concern as she caught sight of Simi who burst out in tears on seeing her what happened Simi she asked as Simi narrated the whole story to her the

weight of her loss the Betrayal of her husband and best friend the emptiness inside of her it all overwhelmed her her stepmother did not speak immediately instead she sat down and took simi's hands into hers it was a small gesture but it was enough to break the wall Simi had built around her days passed and Simi was discharged from the hospital she arrived home with her stepmother who cared for her and ensured that she regained her strength mamao cooked for her baited her and also comforted her in ways that Simi had never expected for the

first time in her life Simi saw her stepmother in a different light not as a villain but as the only person who had truly stood by her when she had no one else but deep inside a fire burned within s me she could not shake off the feeling that her suffering had not been ordinary it wasn't just bad luck it felt like something much darker was at Play she spoke to her stepmother who advised her to pray fervently for answers Simi decided to adhere to her Stepmother's advice and that was how everything escalated in a

way that she never imagined her husband B developed a deep hatred for her he no longer had any form of empathy and even went as far as locking her out of their home one night when she returned from a short visit to the hospital see me bang on the door calling his name but he did not respond she could hear laughter inside TI's laughter her former best friend had now fully taken her place in the house that she had built with her husband di tears streamed down her face as she stood outside shivering from the

cold the Betrayal was like a knife twisting deeper into her soul her stepmother Mama found her the next morning called up on the front porch her body weak without hesitation she decided to take Simi back to her own home on their way they went through the market as Mama oo had something to pick up from someone in the market as they walked down the market simy noticed something unusual that she had never noticed before yata the Sho seller stood in her shop as people troed in and out to buy shoes Simi caught sight of a

very terrifying demon who was at attracting people to the shop her breath cut in her throat as she grabbed Mama oo's arm Mama do you see that she whispered pointing towards yata shop but Mao could not see what she was seeing Simi stood dead terrified as she watched the demon divert people into yat shop she immediately remembered the day that her husband and herself went to the shop to buy some shoes it was after that day that everything in her life began to to fall apart her hands trembled as the realization done on her in

that moment yat wasn't just a Sho seller she was an evil woman who prayed on the Destinies of unsuspecting people and now Simi could see what no one else could she sted down at her feet and realized that she was still wearing the evil shoes Simi in that moment narrated all that had happened in yata shop to her stepmother mamao could not believe what she was hearing she took Simi to her pastor who revealed that the evil shoe was behind all the misfortunes that she faced the evil Sho had the sole goal of ruining happy

families by turning love into hatred trust into betrayal and joy into sorrow it was cursed with an evil spirit designed to manipulate emotions separate marriages and Destroy Destinies Simi gasped as the pastor continued the shoe is a cursed object it was created by an evil woman whose goal was to steal the fortunes of those that wear it every time you wore it it drained your blessings and transferred them to her in that moment Simi realized the main reason why iata's shoes were ridiculously cheap she did not sell her shoes to make profit all she was

focused on was the Destin of those that bought the shoes which was far more valuable than profit tears wed up in in simi's eyes as she finally understood the true extent of what had happened to her yata had stolen everything from her her love her marriage her baby and now her peace of mind the pastor revealed to her that she had to destroy the shoe to set herself free he warned however that if the shoes are not properly destroyed the curse could linger and even wreck more havoc in their lives the pastor then handed over

a bottle of anointing oil to her which she would use to anoint her feet while spraying against every evil Covenant that had been placed upon her life Simi nodded as she gried the bottle tightly she was not going to allow yab to win nor after all that she put her through Simi did as the pastor instructed and burned the shoe a loud and piercing cry Was Heard as the shoes went up in flames in front of her however she knew that her husband Dio was still under the spel Simi was so sure that her husband

would not listen to her if she told him all that had happened so Simi decided to devise a brilliant plan which she believed would work she knew that di never wore the shoes to work so Simi paid the visit to their home when di had gone to work she knew that her best friend teair would also be out so she decided to act quickly before they returned she used her spare key to gain access to the house as she scavenged the entire place for the shoe luckily timy found the shoe tucked away under their bed

she immediately wrapped it in a plastic bag and headed out of the house timy arrived her Stepmother's house with a shoe she knew she had to burn it to set her husband free however as she was about burning the shoe she heard a knock on the door and wondered who it could be Simi hesitated for a moment as she sted at the door in Terror her stepmother on hearing the doorbell walked out of the room to check who it was she opened the door and lo and behold I the evil Sho seller was standing there

fuming in Anger where is she she asked angrily as Mama Ojo asked her what she was doing in her home I'm not here for you I'm here for the girl she said with a voice that was so menacing that I sent shivers down her spine however Mama Ojo did not budge she squared her shoulders and stood firm blocking the doorway you have no business here yata leave here before I do something that you will regret iata let out a chilling laughter her voice echoing through the house like a whisper from the grave do something I

regret she snared said you're a foolish old woman standing in the way of something far greater than you can comprehend Mama unfaced Tien her grip on the door frame I know who you are now a thief a devorer of Destinies and happiness you may have succeeded with others but not my daughter not under my watch I's face darkened her War demeanor Vanishing entirely her eyes gleamed with something unnatural the girl has taken something from me and I have come to reclaim it inside Simi clutched the cursed Sho tightly as her hands trembled she knew she

had to act fast if yata had come for her it meant she was afraid it meant the curse was already weakening Simi ran to the fire pit behind the house and grabbed a bottle of anointing oil she dowed the shoe completely in the oil murmuring the prayers the pastor had given to her the moment the oil touched curs leather a horrific scream erupted from it the shoe Twisted unnaturally in her hands as if something inside was fighting to escape outside ear butter screamed for Simi to be stopped her voice was no longer human as it

was deep and filled with rage Simi however did not stop she flung The Shoe Into the Fire and the moment the Flames engulfed it the entire house shook a dark smoke erupted from from the shoe twisting into an unnatural form the room turned ice cold as the evil entity that had been leing inside the shoe was forced out outside ear let out a blood cuddling scream clutching her chest in pain her body convulsed as her hands cloged at her skin as if something was being ripped from her seei a mamao watched in horror as iata's

body began to Decay before their eyes her one smooth skin turned gray her eyes rolled back as she collapsed to the ground and turned to dust just like that I was gone the silence that followed was deafening as Simi and her stepmother Mama oou stood there Frozen they stared at the pile of dust where yata's body had once stood a cold wind blew past them scattering the ashes into the air Doo however was having dinner with ti when the curse was broken his eyes opened in shock as he wondered what he was doing with ti

B my wife he asked TI who sat there confused to hear such a question from him what kind of a useless question is that she asked di who immediately grabbed his phone to call his wife TI had not been this confused in her entire life she thought di loved her deeply not knowing that he was under a spell that was now broken Di's hands trembled as he doubted him Miss number he had no idea why he had abandoned his wife why he had betrayed her why he had felt such an unnatural attachment to tiir it

was as though a fog had been lifted from his mind and suddenly he could see everything clearly the phone rang and Simi still standing in her Stepmother's living room sted at the screen of her phone in shock her heart pounded as she picked up the phone D shaky voice came through the line see see me see me he said his words fing him I don't know what happened I swear I don't know how I let it happen please just tell me where you are please Simi closed her eyes she could hear the desperation in his

voice but was it enough you left me she said softly you left me when I needed you the most I know he whispered and I will spend the rest of my life making it up to you if you let me Fair suddenly snatched the phone from Di's hand di what is the meaning of this I thought you loved me but Di did not even look at her his eyes were filled with regret his hand shaking as he took the phone back see me please his voice broke I need to see you seei was silent for

a long time before she spoke you were under a spell di the Sho seller yat used her cursed shoes to ruin her lives everything that happened your betrayal my suffering the loss of our child was all because of her evil skin what iata the Sho seller yes simi's voice was steady but filled with pain I destroyed the cursed shoes and the moment I did the spell over you was broken di apologize to sim for all that he did he assured her that his feelings for TI was not real TI on hearing this broke down in

tears her face turned pale as reality Dawn on her the love she thought was real the affection she believed D had for her it was all a lie a manipulation caused by the cursed shoes she had betrayed her best friend for nothing she grabbed Di's hand and pleaded with him not to do this to her you love me we were happy together she said desperation dripping from her voice Dior slowly pulled his arm away shaking his head I don't love you TI I don't even know why I ever thought I did he said to TI

who broke down in tears and began to cry TI's knees buckled as she collapsed into a chair and began to SW she had lost everything her best friend the man she thought loved her and most of all her dignity so TI packed up her bags and left knowing that she was fighting a lost battle Dio however did not expect to take him came back immediately he knew that he had to earn her trust again so for weeks he showed up at Mama Jo's house offering his help pleading for another chance proving to her in every

possible way that he had regretted everything that had happened Simi despite everything still loved him but she was no longer the naive woman she had once been she made di work for her forgiveness setting clear boundaries she needed to see that he was sincere that he was willing to make things right not just with words but with actions and truly di did so months passed and their born grew stronger the wounds were still there but they slowly began to heal together they mourned their Lost Child and together they found comfort in each other again the

lesson to be learned from this story is that not every Bain is a blessing the aure of cheap high quality shoes blinded people to the hidden danger behind them and this serves as a reminder that when something seems too good to be true it often is also the people we least expect can often times become our greatest support system so we should learn to give people the benefit of a doubt selfishness always result in regret TI blinded by her selfish desires lost everything her best friend her dignity and her Peace of Mind betrayal may seem

rewarding in the short term but it always leads to pain in the end another key lesson from this story is that evil tribes in ignorance abat prayed on those who did not know better using their lack of awareness to manipulate and ruin their lives this teaches us to always be vigilant and spiritually Discerning about the things that we bring into our homes and lives furthermore the story emphasizes that forgiveness is powerful but trust must be rebuilt see me chose to forgive thy but she did not immediately let him back into her heart instead she set

boundaries and allowed him to prove himself this is a crucial lesson for anyone who has been hurt it is okay to forgive but it is also important to ensure that the person who hurts you takes accountability and genuinely Works to make amends I hope you enjoyed the story the
