That was the time

My love note came.

He finally told me

How he felt about me

I am attracted to you Grace.

His exact words.

And this is not something you easily forget.

Fred, I thought you were engaged?

He replied; I ain’t married though

One final question,

I knew I had to ask him.

Would you leave her for me?

You know…

There are different things

That would make a person seem attracted to you

It could be your looks,

The brilliance of your words,

Or maybe just your smile

Your scent…anything of fancy

You never know what it could be

And most times,

People never prepare for it.

They don’t even know what they like

They just discover it and go with the flow.

But when it comes to choices for loyalty sake

It is different.

You do not accidentally become loyal

You choose to be.

Loyalty has to be tested.

There is always an opportunity

To choose this day,

Whom you will serve

Do you remember?

The first iPhone 6 you got for 65k,

You didn’t quite enjoy it.

Limited phone space, data consumption,

Low battery life span

And then, you didn’t think of a techno

When you wanted to change your phone

You thought of an upgrade to 7s or 8+

Costing almost or more...

2 times the previous cost price

For something you didn't enjoy.

That is what I mean.

Seek to be the one in the room everyone remembers

But much more,

Seek to be the one they would rather upgrade with

Than change.
