Must Read: Letting Temptation (18+)

Previous Episode

Frankly speaking, I initially couldn’t completely concentrate on the rite before me because of the many thoughts of Mirabel. Why I should be having such thoughts was quite difficult to say but all the same, I was having them. I was particularly thrilled about her persona. She was such an energetic young girl and looked like one with a fabulous future! I was just jealous in a way for the lad she was going to get married to. He was definitely getting a complete woman! She was a great girl to have around; she’s always sounded intelligent and her manners so far had been fantastic! Then to crown it all, she was charming! That there, was the complete package! I so loved fortune or whatever it was, for bringing us to know each other. This wasn’t the traditional case of a mentored seeking a mentor. No. This was rather, the mentor seeking the mentored. I was hoping to continue watching her development both in the church and in her career. In fact, while we were driving, I had asked her a couple of things about her religious life. I asked her the last time she had a confession. Of course, it was easy to lie about it even though I was supposed to be the one she was going to confess to anyway. But she did say what looked like the truth when she said she hadn’t gone for one for over 3 years already. It was a stunning truth but one I easily understood given her past. She had refused to share her experience with the deacon with anyone in church since she was worried the deacon would be exposed. She only told me she wasn’t a virgin anymore because I asked her. That in itself, showed how innocent she was. If she had chosen to lie like most guilty spoilt adults would do, I was probably not going to find out. But Mirabel didn’t do that. Innocent Mirabel told me she wasn’t a virgin anymore!

After Mass was over I had a couple of other meetings with certain leaders at the Parish. Renovation work had been going on at the old wing of the parish building and I was regularly briefed about any progress made. This time it was the last meeting I was going to have and as soon as it was over, I returned to my office to pack up for the night. For the past two months, I had been doing a study on the epistles of St. Paul and it had always kept me awake most nights. I had to pick up some new study materials from my office library before eventually calling it a day. My catechist who usually always waits behind until I had gone, was already waiting to carry my little luggage into the car. He’s been a wonderful servant to the Parish for several years and he was even the one who recommended Ignatius, my actual housekeeper who was currently on leave. In Ignatius I eventually found a very hardworking man who despite his age was always willing to learn. He had been with me for over 8 years and had served so honestly. While I may have gotten very excited by the prospect of having Mirabel as a handy personnel within the clergy-house, I still knew it was going to be difficult keeping her for so long. Ignatius would return at some point and I would have to welcome him back. That is what everybody understands should happen. That is what my catechist understands too and as he handed me my things and waved me good night, I also understood who was likely going to be the first worried man if I failed to go as he thinks.

Anyways, I got a little bit uncomfortable after I had returned to the Rectory. To begin with, Mirabel had done an unexpectedly brilliant job in my absence! She had firstly made me dinner which she had covered on the dining table. Then she got some bathwater heated up for me – this usually used to be a problem for me given the time required at times. She also gave the house a definite touch; arranging things into place just like it used to be when there was a housekeeper around! I was so pleased the moment I noticed all these and even though I suspected she had slept off, I told myself she was definitely going to get a salute for already knowing her way around in just a short time. The concern actually only came after I had finished having dinner and bathed. I had also changed into my Aaron robe (a robe I wore around at home) and was making it through the hallway leading to the staircase. I wanted to catch a quick sleep upstairs in my bedroom before waking later in the night for my study at my little library downstairs. Then while crossing Mirabel’s bedroom which was also accessed from the hallway, it occurred to me that I was yet to see how she settled into her new room. Of course, it used to serve Ignatius and it was always going to be a bit tiring putting your things together in an already occupied room. So I felt I had to check on her.

However, when I walked in, I met more than I had bargained for! Mirabel was already asleep from what I could see, but that wasn’t the only thing I could see! She was indeed sleeping with a nightrobe (which I really doubted was hers given I had seen Ignatius wear it before) and it was barely covering her body as it should! She was facing the wall meaning she was going to have her butt0ckz towards me and because of the way her nightrobe hardly covered her, her entire butt0ckz was exposed to my first glance! The p@nty she was wearing was seeming like the only saving element in the encounter!

And in outright surprise, even to myself, I cried out a quick prayer – engaging the Sign of the Cross countless times across my chest! I was visibly shaken and I hurriedly shut my eyes still muttering more prayers! I had seen the unthinkable and needed not to see anymore! Thus with eyes shut, I began to trace my way towards her in a bid to pull the nightrobe over her butt0ckz. Luckily, I succeeded in locating the dress but without mistakenly feeling up a number of places around her butt0ckz and thighs! Without wasting further time though, I quickly pulled the nightrobe down before opening my eyes. And I was soon out of her bedroom and back into the hallway. I paused for a moment making sure I had a clear head as well as offering more prayers. And then as soon as I felt I had calmed down, began to climb to my bedroom. It was unimaginable what had happened and no ear was going to bear hearing it! Female nudity in a Rectory?! Worse still, female nudity before a priest?! It was a perfect example of an abomination and I didn’t know how to explain to myself how I’d got to this point already! Even when I tried getting into sleep, I just couldn’t do so! Diverse thoughts crowded my head. I had to abandon sleep. I was going back down to resume my study.

Downstairs too, I wasn’t concentrated. In fact, it only got worse! While I had been asking myself how I had allowed this to happen, this time around as I attempted going through some of my old written commentaries, I realized the thoughts had totally changed. Instead of just wondering about the possible reasons behind the ugly occurrence, several imaginations of what I had seen now kept creeping into my thoughts! The visual contact was actually very brief and almost negligible but I found my imaginations blowing it out of proportion! I found my thoughts analyzing pictures of how her p@nty had gripped the fleshy skin of her butt0ckz and even how the crack of her butt was evidently outlined as a little valley at the center of the fabric!

?
When thoughts of what could have been if I had felt her K!ttyC@t instead of her nightrobe when I tried covering her, began getting into my head, I knew real problems had come! Because from there, it graduated into a spree of several crazy thoughts which hardly allowed me concentrate on my study anymore! At some point, I had to temporary suspend my progress to stare blankly into space for several minutes! I couldn’t believe the brief seconds I spent looking at her semi-nudity had brought all this to me! It was the sound of the door to the living room, that brought me back to the present!

Then when I looked up, it was Mirabel approaching the dinning from the living room. Given the way the Rectory was planned, one could see as much as a bit of the living room, then the dinning, the connecting lobby all the way into the kitchen, right from the library. It was quite a view and I guess the idea was to give the person studying at the library a quick access to all three spaces since they were the likely spaces he would always use after a study session. So as soon as Mirabel stepped into the living room, I easily spotted her in the darkness there and trailed her movement all the way to the dinning where she picked up a cup before walking straight to the kitchen. I instantly knew what she came out for – water! She was certainly the type that woke up at night to drink water. Anyways, while that wasn’t an issue, the actual issue surfaced when she flicked on the light bulb in the kitchen only to be revealed as just wearing a bra and a p@nty! That instant, I died within me! In fact, I didn’t even know when I repeated the Sign of the cross again and again; uttering the early parts of the Hail Mary!
