#Previously on the Episode 8, Khanyi was afraid to go home alone, so she did not. Someone else came in the house where Khanyi and Themba were having a wrestling private party. Khanyi when to check while Themba remained in the room.#
Just as Themba was getting under the bed in the guest room, he heard a man’s voice shouting “where is He? Don’t make me a fool hei! You think I don’t know about you and that DJ Delicious, Where is he? Get out of my way you..” “No Doug, please let me explain!” Khanyi begged. The noise was escalating as they got into different rooms until there was a loud sound of broken glass. Themba was shaking and imagining a Stone Cold Steve Austin wrestling kind of a guy to run into the room to smash him. But there was silence after the broken glass and Themba thought, “could it be that Stone Cold broke Khanyi or maybe she killed him? oh no. what am I going to do, the police even witnessed us together? What would the people say, the church, my pastor, Hope? ”
Footsteps approached slowly after the lights went on and he heard the sound of the dialling buttons of the cellphone followed by a breathy voice saying, “I have a situation, send the cleaner!” Doug opened the wardrobes and quickly attempted to look beneath the bed but his knees where weak and bleeding, so he left the room breathing like a bull. Themba was sweating and repentantly praying to the Lord to give him one more chance. He heard Doug speaking to another man at the garage before the car engine was switched on and the car drove off.
After 20 minutes of silence, Themba was convinced that Doug and the cleaner left, perhaps going to clean Doug’s expensive suit with blood. Themba was still thinking of taking another 5 minutes of thinking when suddenly a hand grabbed his foot shouting “come out, you bustard! Come out!”. Four hands pulled him out vigorously and Themba was weak; He stood up but the last thing his eyes saw was a sharp metallic weapon coming towards his face.Lying on the floor, blind and dumb but Themba could hear the two men speak unclearly as if they were underwater. He could tell that he was being dragged because of the sound that the back of his head made with the surfaces and objects on the floor but he felt no pain. Then there was another sound like that of a green mower and just as it got louder towards his face, he blacked out in fear.

Few minutes later, Themba regained consciousness but the place was pitch black and perfectly silent like he was in an ear testing room. If a fly passed 100 km away, he would have heard it. He could now tell that he is in motion because there was a slight breeze passing through his face. “Could it be a fan blowing him at some torturing chamber?” he thought. All of a sudden an American accent female cried, “hello, can anybody hhya me. Is anybody hhya?”. “What is happening to me?”, another voice screamed “where am I?” and another, “maaweeeeh”,all of a sudden there were more and more radomn voices crying at once “Heeiiiiing”, “Einaaah!”. Themba could now tell that he seemed to be dropping from the height with all these people and while he was still confused, the voices continued “Adolph is that you?” “Jezabel!Jezabel, what have you done to me?”, “Ek se Majita, lekae, sputla?”, “miyanga wee!”, “Baweee jijiji! ”, “Tshinegeeeh!”, ”Aide moi!” , “Kanji!”, “Shilohini, mama mina yoooh?”
Suddenly, they could hear another crowd screaming from far like soccer fans as they approached the stadium, dropping from above. The sound got louder and clearer that the stadium was packed with people screaming in pain. The air started getting warmer and Themba seemed to be accelerating as the other screaming bodies started striking him randomly like rain drops from all angles . Some bodies were already dropping into the red smoky volcano beneath where the yelling masses were. Themba started crying, “Nkulukulu wami, ngiya xolisa! Please help me, I beg you! Send me back, I will be a good person. I will live for you, father. Please forgive me. Please nooo! Please”. The air was getting extremely hot and his left eye exploded like a chewing gum bubble. Then he heard a voice from the background saying “All things are possible… to those who trust in God”, Themba recognized that it was Darlene’s voice and as he wrestled with the burning....
Themba then woke up and jumped out of the bed. The ringtone continued playing the Hillsong and Temba was still shaking and all sweaty as he reached for a clock like a senile old woman who cant believe she is still alive. He checked the time and realised that he has been sleeping for two hours since Khanyi and the police left. Now, seeing his cellphone screen displaying “Khanyi”, he quickly switched it off and began praying.

James 1:13-16 NLT And remember, when you are being tempted, do not say, "God is tempting me." God is never tempted to do wrong, and He never tempts anyone else. (14) Temptation comes from our own desires, which entice us and drag us away. (15) These desires give birth to sinful actions. And when sin is allowed to grow, it gives birth to death. (16) So don't be misled, my dear brothers and sisters.
Proverbs 6:32-35 NLT But the man who commits adultery is an utter fool, for he destroys himself. (33) He will be wounded and disgraced. His shame will never be erased. (34) For the woman's jealous husband will be furious, and he will show no mercy when he takes revenge. (35) He will accept no compensation, nor be satisfied with a payoff of any size.

Matthew 5:27-30 NLT "You have heard the commandment that says, 'You must not commit adultery.' (28) But I say, anyone who even looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart. (29) So if your eye--even your good eye--causes you to lust, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. (30) And if your hand--even your stronger hand--causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
Philippians 4:8 NLT And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.
Galatians 5:16-21 NLT So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you won't be doing what your sinful nature craves. (17) The sinful nature wants to do evil, which is just the opposite of what the Spirit wants. And the Spirit gives us desires that are the opposite of what the sinful nature desires. These two forces are constantly fighting each other, so you are not free to carry out your good intentions. (18) But when you are directed by the Spirit, you are not under obligation to the law of Moses. (19) When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, (20) idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, (21) envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these. Let me tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living that sort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God
