The Dirty Saint

39

My charm finally got Jordan from the fellowship, I don't know how they do it but christian brother has strong restraint

He has always been so polite and respectful but I knew there was something more to it when he started offering to walk me to the car or call to check up on me

He finally let the cat out of the bag one evening after service when he insisted I stay behind that he has something important to tell me

He joined me outside where I was waiting for him

"Sister Berachah, am sorry to keep you waiting but I had to attend to somethings"

"I understand, I hope there's no problem this one you asked me to wait behind"

"No not at all"
Then the nervousness. He entangled his hands together and was already breaking a sweat, just to talk to a girl

"Sister Bera I don't want you to be offended by what am about to tell you but I have been studying you for awhile now, I have watched you be your matured spiritually minded self and I must confess I am really impressed with how you carry yourself with so much grace. Without beating through the bush, the truth is..
I like you sister Berachah "
Then he paused like he was expecting a surprised reaction from me but this is no news to me. I have known he fancies me for a long time now, I don't know how he managed to keep it to himself for this long

"I know you are not expecting me to come right out and say it like that "
Actually I do

"But I believe we are mature enough to understand my perspective. If You will agree to this courtship I would like us to get to know each other more, hang out more often, pray together and help each other grow spiritually. Trust me I have prayed fervently over this and seek reverences from a few people too and I am happy to tell you that God supports this union and am sure with his love backing us we will grow stronger together and become one in the nearest future"

Did this guy just propose courtship and marriage at once. This has to be the slickest pick up line I have ever heard

Sincerely I admire Jordan alot
He is very smart and dedicated, he reminds me of my first love Stevie. The way he speaks with so much confidence and passion

And he is so friendly with everyone, he doesn't discriminate. Is not like he hasn't seen me in one of my skimpy dresses, I didn't even block him on my WhatsApp and I post alot of shit on my status and here he is still talking to me like I am a saint without blemish

But I took another good look at him
He is a fucking nerd. A final year medical student for that matter, asides church and studying round the clock
I bet he has no time for anything else and his idea of fun might be to read the Bible nonstop

I don't think I can cope with that
His shoes got my attention too, he has worn the life out of that shoe. It is a big No for me, I can count the number of shirts he has. Sometimes they are so wrinkled I was thinking of buying him a new shirt soon

Then his hair...... Oh lord
His hair is so unkempt and smelly atimes. He is always carrying a comb around yet it always look so bushy

He is not even that good looking 
am attracted to fine boys like Steve, Eric

That's basically not the major problem. The problem is I dont like him enough to be his girlfriend and I dont think I can have someone so spiritually minded as my partner

To avoid future embarrassment and lack of respect for each other because I place him on a high caliber it is better I do not entertain this awaiting disaster

"Brother Jordan "
How can I be calling my boyfriend brother. It would be so awkward

"I am so blushing, You walking up to me and telling me about your interest in me is extremely flattering but It can't work not because I dont like you because I do. You are a great guy and I respect you alot like a brother, I have never seen you in a romantic way. You are just like my spiritual father in this church. I see you as someone who I can interact with on bible levels and for prayers not in a love affair. "
