Once upon a time, there was a girl by the name of Racheal. She is very beautiful and has a high test of life. One day, Racheal told her friends that she would never marry a poor man. She said, "I am very beautiful and I am not born to suffer". Therefore, she turns down every suitor who seeks her hand in marriage.
One faithful day, Rachael met Alex in a supermarket. He approached her and after their discussion, they exchanged phone contact. Alex paid her bills and gave her a ride to her house. The next day, Alex visited her and took her on a dinner. At the restaurant, Alex seeks her hand in marriage after discussion and eating. Racheal quickly agrees to Alex's proposal because she has already been in love with him from the first day she met him.
A few months later Alex and Rachael got married. Life was so good and pleasing to Racheal because her dream to marry a rich man came to pass. She has a house help, and a personal driver and her husband makes sure she lacks nothing.
A year after their wedding, Rachael put to bed a set of twins and this strengthens their relationship the more. Family and friends of Racheal, neighbours and church members celebrated with the family over these blessings. Nobody came from the family of Alex but it never disturbed Racheal because life is good for her.
About five years later Racheal met her classmate on an occasion. They were so happy to see each other after many years. So Racheal invited her to the house after the occasion. As soon as they reached the house, Racheal went into to room to invite her husband to introduce her friend to him. When Racheal's friend saw Alex, she shouted but Alex quickly rushed back to the room.
Recheal demanded to know what the problem was and the friend told her that Alex was their neighbour He died about seven (7) years ago and that was exactly the period Recheal got married to him. So they quickly rushed inside the bedroom but never saw Alex again. They called his phone line but the network said the "line does not exist". So Recheal cried so bitterly and exclaimed " NOT ALL THAT GLITTER IS GOLD"!
Moral lesson
