"Enjoy your coffee sir." I say as i take the money from his hand and put it into the cash register after pressing down some buttons on the machine in front of me. The cafe has been up for a little over a month now which is the good thing. Its been doing so great!

In fact publicity from the cafe on social media has been attracting more and more people to the garden and letting them join in our prayers. So far i think we have converted at least 20 people to Christianity just by them having conversations with other christians about their problems and by joining in on our free sermons and services.

The whole store is painted a Bright pastel blue with clouds and stars and a rainbow with birds and all types of animals on the bottom part of the wall. When i first saw it, it was a surprise for me. I just assumed i would come and do the rest as soon as i got back from holidays with maleeks to see Ace, Stephanie, Joel and Destiny standing in front of it blindfolding me and finally ripping the blindfolds off of me so that i could see the whole cafe front done up,

A tear dropped from my eye at it, even though i joked around saying that it looked like a nursery, to which joel responded "Well we assumed after a holiday like that you would come back pregnant." I blushed, Ace was confused, Destiny Busted out laughing and Stephanie punched him on the arm...

Then they told me that ace was the one who picked the design, said he was going for a look of what he imagined heaven to be like... everyone added their own touch and it came out beautiful.

I looked back up to him to give him his change when he handed me a $20 bill for a $2.50 coffee but he waved it off from himself while sipping on his drink insisting that i keep it.

"This is way too much to keep, honestly take your change sir." I plead with him shaking it towards him but he continuously shook it off

"Was the coffee that good?" I ask while chuckling at him as he takes another sip

"Its my honour really," He says sternly

"Oh really? why is that."

"Well because i just got served by the future pastor's wife of our church of course!" He blurted out as if it was so obvious why. I know it was a compliment but a harsh punch jabbed my gut at his words..

Pastors wife.

I put my hand on my stomach to settle myself as i looked up to him with a forced smile,

"Thanks for stopping by. See you in church Sunday?" I say as i look tilt my head his direction, trying so obviously to hide the emotions I'm feeling, How i have to step into my new title of Pastors wife. Accepting the fact that im always going to be on the side having to sacrifice my pride...

"See you then First lady." He innocently winked before walking out of the building,

A scared thought comes into my mind that triggers me to take a deep breath, i dont want to be selfish, this is maleek time but a part of me cant help but worry about whats going to happen with me.
