David was handsome, intelligent, and charismatic, and he quickly caught Cristel's eye. She found herself developing a little crush on him, and she couldn't help but feel drawn to his charismatic presence. David, however, noticed Cristel's feelings for him and began to pursue her, even though the pastor of their church explicitly forbade their relationship.
