I Was a Bad Girl for Three Years Until...
Florence Adeyemo — the Mary Magdalene of Jesuit High School.
The kind of girl everyone admired. The girl her family and classmates fondly called Pastor Mrs. Flo. She was the white sheep of the senior block — gentle, elegant, holy, and brilliant. What better combination could anyone ask for?
Flo did everything right. Not because she was a “Miss Perfect,” but because she genuinely lived a righteous life. She wasn’t trying to impress anyone. She simply loved God — and it showed.
But then, something happened.
Three weeks after the senior secondary school holiday, Flo started hanging out with Natasha — the class wolf. Natasha, the daughter of a senator, was wild and rebellious. Lazy in school, loud at parties. She lived for the nightlife and didn’t care what anyone thought.
Flo told herself she was only trying to win Natasha over to Christ. After all, Jesus was always found among sinners, right?
Her intentions were pure. Her boundaries were not.
Slowly, Florence changed. The girl who used to whisper words of prayer began to speak words soaked in profanity. Her gracious, calm spirit gave way to a sharp, restless energy. She became defiant. Disrespectful. Rebellious.
Overnight, Flo became a different person. A bad girl.
Her fall was loud.
It took serious intercession, divine mercy, and tough love to pull her back from the edge. The process wasn’t easy. But it worked. She learned her lesson — the hard way.
No matter how pure your intentions are, the company you keep will shape your character. Set boundaries, or you may become what you were trying to change.
