Nneka and Chika stood side by side, their heads bowed in reverence as Pastor Ezekiel preached from the pulpit. The air inside the crowded church was heavy with anticipation, as if everyone held their breath, awaiting the next divine word to spill from the esteemed pastor's lips.

Their father, a respected figure in their  community, had always been a beacon of righteousness or so they thought. But behind the charismatic smile and powerful sermons lay a darker truth, one they were forced to keep hidden.
