For down of di mountain, one big crowd dey wait. Noise over choke. Teachers dey drag matter with di other disciples. Den somebody see Jesus as e dey come down di path. People run go meet am. One papa push pass inside di crowd, and di pain wey dey e face explain everything before e even open mouth...

One papa throw himself for Jesus leg. E voice break. "One bad spirit dey attack my son! E dey throw am down! E dey wound am over and over!" E press e face for ground. "Your disciples try to help. Dem no fit do am." Jesus look pass di crowd. "Bring di boy come meet me."

Dem bring di boy close. Di spirit see Jesus and e throw di pikin for ground. Di boy roll inside dust, e dey shake. E papa fall on e knees. "If you fit do anything, abeg help us!" Jesus look am straight for eye. "If I fit? Everything fit happen for person wey believe." Tears flow down di papa face...
