Wow! Okay, this is the height! Like you had to go back to meet him? This is really touching and sweet. I had a similar experience, but clearly not close to yours though, I met this lovely young lady at one of my many travels back then for a seminar, she's definitely not a member of my church, a friend invited her over for the seminar, and we bonded so well, we spent the whole night laughing, talking and getting to know each other (good thing she booked a room in the same hotel I also booked mine), we shared so much with each other and we connected so well, but then I was with someone, even though I was so tempted to kiss her, I was glad she understood why I couldn't kiss her. The next morning we travelled back to our different destinations and then we forgot to exchange contracts. Three days later, I received a call from an unknown number, she described herself and I quickly remembered her, she told me how she asked her friend who happens to be a member of my church for my number and how her friend had to ask another friend just to get my number, we talked on the phone for days, and one day, she told me she want to travel down to Delta State where I stay to spend the weekend, she asked me to get her a room and she would pay for it, she just want to see me one more time. I thought she was joking, but she really came and it was an amazing weekend (honestly speaking, she was like my soulmate, but I was with someone and would never try to hurt the one I am with). But we had so much fun hanging out together. And then she returned back to Abuja on a Sunday. 2 weeks later, I discovered she's no more 😭, that was when I knew she has been sick for a long time, and that was the only part about her that she never told me. I never knew that visit would be the last one, but I think she kinda knew though. Writing this now, I just realised I really miss her, and that's one of the best time of my life, spent with a complete stranger who became a friend before leaving this word. Her name was BLESSING

Wow, that's so amazing. I'm sorry to hear that she died, but sounds like you are lucky you got to spend some magical time with her.
Thank you. Indeed I was lucky to spend time with her. That is one experience I am always grateful for, because sometimes I think about it, I always feel like she needed some happy time before she died, and I am happy to have been available when she needed it.
As I read your story, I was imagining what it would be like and I felt it was one of those experiences that happens very little in life. I'm sorry to hear that he died. He left you the memories of those moments that you miss because of how special they were for you.
Thank you so much, the person is actually a she though. She was an amazing person, I really am grateful for the experience, it's rare, so I am happy I experienced it. Thanks for sharing your thought.
@officialuroga When a person who is about to die decides to spend their last hours with someone, it means that this person is important to them. I will consider it fortunate that someone took the last days of their life to be with you, it is something to cherish for a lifetime.
Very true, and I cherish every single moment from that day. The memory is still fresh in my head and I am grateful for it.
Oh my goodness!!! How hard and what happiness you have generated for him to go see you just before his departure. That is your greatest reward, to have been a source of happiness for her in her last days. Even though she is gone now, I'm sure they were good times for her in that difficult situation.
Very true, indeed that was my reward, and opportunity to serve as a form of happiness to her before leaving this world, it's a rare opportunity and I'm glad I had it.
