129 What Happens in Vegas...
Wanda was in Las Vegas for a bachelorette party thrown by her girlfriends in her honor. She was about to get married in two weeks. Wanda's fiance Vick had some reservations about the gathering as some of Wanda's friends were rather wild, but Wanda assured him that nothing was going to happen.
At the party, Wanda's girlfriends hired several male strippers to show up at their penthouse hotel suite. At first, Wanda was a bit uncomfortable at the party, but everyone was dancing, drinking alcohol, and having a blast around her. Wanda took a few shots of hard liquor after some peer pressure, then she started loosening up and enjoying the party. She danced wildly with the strippers and even stripped herself, to the delight of her friends.
At one point, Wanda ended up alone with one of the strippers in her room. She initially resisted his advances, telling him that she was about to get married. However, he seductively smiled and assured her that no one was going to know. After, he said, this is Las Vegas, right? Wanda's resistance melted and she started to kiss him passionately...
The next day, as she was trying to recover from her hangover, Wanda felt incredibly guilty for cheating on Vick. She swore all her friends to secrecy, to which they gladly obliged. She was about to get married and she didn't want knowledge of this indiscretion to get to Vick.
A few days passed and Wanda was busy making wedding preparations. She almost completely forgot her bachelorette party indiscretion. However, after Wanda came home from work just three days before the wedding, she saw Vick crying at his desk in front on a computer. When she came closer to ask Vick what was the problem, to her horror, she saw damning photos of her bachelorette party on a social network page, including compromising photos of her and that stripper. The pictures were taken by one of the male strippers who posted them on his page. One of the Vick's friends was an acquaintance of the stripper. When Vick's friend saw the photos, he thought he recognized Wanda, so he forwarded the link to Vick.
After an angry argument that ensued, Wanda admitted that she slept with a stripper at the bachelorette party. Tearfully, Vick told Wanda that the wedding was off and he stormed out of the house. Wanda started crying aloud as she stared at the computer. Despite her best efforts, what happened in Vegas followed her home.
No matter how well you may hide your sins from man, you cannot hide your sins from God.
