the lives of everyone around her years later people in the village would still talk about Autumn and Maggie their story reminded everyone that love kindness and a little bit of magic could create a life full of happiness and wonder otm often said meeting Maggie was the greatest Miracle of my life she is not just my wife she is my destiny and Maggie with her radiant smile would always reply and you o Tim are my forever home after Maggie and otim were officially married life in the household grew even stranger Maggie's Beauty and Grace continued to

Captivate everyone but it was her mysterious abilities that left otim both amazed and unsettled miraculous things seemed to happen around her daily tasks that should have taken hours were completed in moments moments and odd occurrences began to fill their home one day Tim watched in awe as Maggie fetched water The Village Water Source was nearly an hour away yet she returned within a minute the pot filled to the brim how is this possible otim suso parim mismo Maggie smiling softly said when you love someone you'll always find a way to make life easier for them

though her words were comforting Tim couldn't help but feel uneasy even in the privacy of their bedroom Maggie's actions defied explanation one evening Tim mentioned he was thirsty instead of getting up to fetch water from the Next Room Maggie stretched her hand seemingly impossibly long and retrieved the cup while still sitting on the bed otim blinked wondering if his mind was playing tricks on him where did that come from he asked cautiously Maggie simply smiled and handed him the cup you needed water so I got it for you my love Tim hesitated but drank not

wanting to offend her yet deep down he started to fear Maggie she was everything he had ever wanted in a wife but her actions were Beyond human understanding things became even stranger one day when utum left Maggie in the bedroom and walked into into the sitting room only to find her already there sitting calmly and waiting for him his heart raced are there two of you he asked half joking but unable to hide his anxiety Maggie only laughed don't be silly otim I'm always with you though otim loved Maggie deeply he began to feel a

growing sense of dread oddly enough he noticed that he only felt truly at ease when they were together at night during those times he felt comforted energized and capable of facing anything however with his other wives he felt no such connection what is happening to me he asked himself what went wrong why is Maggie so different one fateful day otim returned home earlier than expected as he approached the house he noticed something unusual through the window a long snake AK like object was stretching from the bedroom into the sitting room carrying a cup of water

his heart pounded as he moved closer only to realize it wasn't a snake it was Maggie's arm impossibly extended carrying the cup with ease otim froze his mouth went dry and his legs felt weak for the first time he questioned whether Maggie was even human he thought back to all the strange occurrences the car that appeared from nowhere the impossibly quick trips to fetch water her ability to appear in two places at once he had ignored his growing fears for too long Gathering his courage odm stepped into the house Maggie as if sensing his presence

retracted her arm and greeted him warmly welcome home my love she said with a radiant smile but utum could no longer ignore the truth Maggie he began hesitantly who or what are you Maggie's smile faltered for a moment before she replied I am your wife otim I came to make your life better why do you question me now otim didn't know how to respond he loved her but fear had taken root in his heart that night as he lay beside her he couldn't sleep his mind raced with questions and doubts if he had known about

her mysterious nature before marrying her would he have made the same decision the next morning otim decided to confide in his eldest wife she listened patiently as he described everything that had happened oh Tim she said gently perhaps this is a lesson for you you rushed into marrying Maggie because of her beauty you didn't take the time to truly know her sometimes what we see on the outside is not what lies within her words struck a chord with o he realized he had been blinded by Maggie's Beauty and charm never stopping to understand who she

really was he thought about the traditions of their ancestors where parents played a significant role in choosing a good wife for their sons perhaps our African culture had wisdom after all he mused if my parents had been involved they might have seen what I could not Tim decided to confront Maggie once more not with fear but with the hope of understanding Maggie he said I need to know the truth I love you but I can't live with this uncertainty please tell me who you really are Maggie looked at him with a mixture of sadness and

affection otim she said I am here because you chose me my purpose was to bring blessings into your life but I see now that my presence has brought you fear instead Perhaps it is time for me to leave otum felt a Pang of regret despite everything he didn't want to lose her but before he could speak Maggie disappeared leaving behind only the memory of her radiant smile Tim's life returned to normal but he was forever changed by his experience he became a wiser man teaching his children and others in the village the importance of understanding

someone's character for committing to them he emphasized the value of patience and the wisdom of involving parents in the process of choosing a spouse to the young men o team would say beauty is fleeting but character lasts a lifetime take your time to know someone before bringing them into your life and to the parents guide your children teach them about marriage about respect and about the importance of building a family based on trust and understanding otim also reflected on his own decisions while he had married many wives he realized that a smaller harmonious family would

have been better men he often said learn to be content with one or two wives focus on building a strong loving family instead of seeking more the story of oim and Maggie became a cautionary Tale in the village parents began taking a more active role in their children's lives teaching them about the value of humility patience and wisdom the tradition of parents helping their sons choose a good wife returned and the village became a place of stronger happier families if it were me I would have done things differently I would have taken time to truly

understand Maggie before marrying her I would have sought the guidance of my parents and Elders trusting their wisdom and if faced with the same miraculous occurrences I would have prayed for clarity and guidance knowing that some things are Beyond human understanding the lesson here is clear life and love are not to be rushed take the time to know the people you welcome into your life trust the wisdom of those who came before you and remember that true beauty lies within for in the end it is character not appearance that builds a lasting and meaningful relationship
