I was discussing with my friend Lisa when Sam walked up to us to say hi.

I'm good Sam. I replied, waving my hands and Lisa also greeted.

You both are having good times. He said and we nodded.

After spending few minutes, he left. I quickly realized how obsessed Lisa became. She couldn't stop looking at Sam who was long gone.

Lisa!

Finally, I shouted it after many times of futile call.

She was suddenly startled, pretending to be feeling normal.

Being a lady, I already realized that she was having feelings for Sam. Even when I told her that, she still declined that nothing was happening.

Sam was in his mid-thirties. He was a business man dealing on building materials. I wouldn't say he was rich, but he just did well.

Lisa and I have been friends right from childhood. We vowed to maintain s*xual purity even in the midst of our crooked generation.

It soon became an impossible mission for Lisa. To her, our decision could elude us of an early marriage.

One day, as I was scrolling through her photo's gallery, I saw nude pictures everywhere. At first, I thought it could be a mistake. I was so grieved when I saw multiples of them.

Suddenly, Lisa arrived. When she saw me with her phone, she hurriedly collected it. I was just obfuscated.

Is anything wrong Lisa?

This is my privacy Princess, common..! That was her response.

Gradually, Lisa changed. She stopped going to fellowship. The crux of it all was that Sam steeply lost interest in her.

Initially, I thought Sam was her kind but I got to know that he too was prioritizing s*xual purity.

After few months, Lisa disappeared. Her whereabout became entirely unknown to me.

I continued to press on towards serving God, maintaining my pride!

Two years later, while I was at home, Lisa stormed. She was changed. Yes, she added some weights but it was quite obvious she already lost it all.

She couldn't stand for a minute before she broke down.

I missed it Princess. I am so disappointed in myself. In my quest to satisfy myself, I met with doom. It is even beyond losing my virginity. I have lost my dignity Princess. I'm akin to a public vessel. To exacerbate it all, I lost my womb in the process of abortion.

That was a bombshell!

I held my both ears as tears dropped from my eyes.

My mind flashed back to the past and I started remembering those times I cautioned her about her waywardness. Despite all, she chose to be adamant. Now, she missed it all.

Even though there was hope, nevertheless, the fact that she already left an indelible mark can't be overemphasized.

Not long after, when I was done calming her down and talking to her, Sam arrived.

He was amazed seeing Lisa because it has been a long time.

Ever since then, Sam and I have been in contact with each other, yet with no talks about relationship.

I was deeply confused when he knelt with his eyes fixed on me.

Dipping his hands into his pocket, he brought a golden box. That was a ring!

I will be the happiest man on earth if you accept to dwell with me. I have found you worthy. You are that woman I desire. With you by my side, I'll live a fulfilled life. I can't wait to see you be the mother of my children. With deep humility, I will yet make this solemn request my dear Princess, will you be my wife?

To be honest, I was still confused. I didn't dream about it like that. Yes, I used to have that sensation and countless times I prayed about it.

All of a sudden, I said YES!

Sam and I became engaged. It was after that moment that he said what broke my heart. Then, Lisa was gone. I have the conviction it will be a message to my fellow young minds.

Lisa has been the one I loved. I called her mine after the first time I saw her. It is unfortunate God said no and I know for my good. She turned into something else. I believe God knows the best but I'm happy we will make a happy home my love.

Tears came out of my eyes as we held our hands.

It is good to follow God patiently. There's no gain in poisonous pleasure. It's beyond self fulfilment. It is sheer self destruction and the repercussion is gradual.

Dear youth beware!
