I went to my boyfriend's house and he gave me money to cook, so I left for the market. I took a taxi and along the road the taxi stopped to pick another person. It was a guy, he sat beside me and he started acting weird immediately he saw me.
Guys, this guy did not leave me, he followed me around the market, he didn't even ask for my number again, he carried what I bought, despite the fact that I didn't give him a friendly face, he still carried the heavy bags. He even suggested recipes for me.
I told him I love my boyfriend and I was at his place and I am going back there, I also told him it is a no because I had been with my boyfriend for a long time and we would get married any moment soon. I read his sad expression, sad but determined.
He pleaded I give him my number and promised he won't disturb me, he even went ahead and said.
" Don't give me your WhatsApp number for you to know I won't bug you, I just want to have a trace of you, that's all''
So I gave him my number, not the WhatsApp number. He escorted me to the park, paid for my transport fare and left.
I got back home and told my boyfriend about it, we laughed over it.
My boyfriend proposed to me two months later and I went to meet his parents. After knowing I am from Benue, his mother's reaction changed and went back and forth.
His mother insisted he allow his son to get married to someone from my state, especially my village.
That was when the challenges started.
It was a sad moment for us, I cried and he cried too.
I was at home one day when a message came into my phone.
"Hi it's John, how are you? I am just checking up"
The number was not familiar so I called it and he explained how we met before I could remember.
I was back to single then. I gave him my WhatsApp number and we started talking.
Few weeks after constant chatting, I agreed to meet him in a lounge where we had fun. He didn't say anything about relationships or asking me out.
Just general talk and vibes. We got Intimate that I couldn't stop thinking about him and couldn't wait to see his messages or calls everyday.
3 months into our friendship and he didn't say anything, I pushed the button. I asked him out. I told him I'd like him to be my boyfriend if he didn't mind.
He asked about my boyfriend and I narrated the whole story to him, he felt bad for me and told me I don't need to rush into a relationship if I have not healed.
I agreed with him but still gave him a close mark.
I was in his house one day, cooking, he came Into the kitchen and held my waist from behind.
My favorite touch. I turned immediately and kissed him and that was how it started.
Our wedding Anniversary was in July and we have 2 girls already.
He is a good man and I love him.
He told our first daughter that I proposed to him...lol
He told me he knew I was gonna be his wife the moment he saw me in the cab.
