Love Found Me.
A short love story.
It’s a blissful Friday morning and I was heading to Kotangora market to buy some much-needed clothes. When I heard my alarm I honestly contemplated sleeping and just postponing the whole thing but one driving force sha made me get out of my bed.
Shower done.
Outfit and big bag ready.
It was time to leave the house.
I got to the bus stop, entered keke and everything seemed normal until this man boarded.
He smelled really nice but that’s not it. He was literally radiating warmth. I don't know how to describe it but the keke was pretty cramped so when he boarded I was pressed up against him and I won't lie,
I didn't mind one bit. It felt really wonderful and I wanted to just stay pressed up against him forever.
Unfortunately, wishes like that don't come true. We got to Agric bus stop and it had to come to an end. I started to pay when he said I shouldn't bother.
Ah, oga! Taink you o.
It’s like today is going to be a good day. I thanked him and was about to leave when he called out to me.
“I know it’s too early but is it okay if I get your number? My name is Raymond by the way.”
Ahh, Ray Ray my little ray of warm sunshine. Of course, you can have my number.
“Sure, you can. Here you go and my name is Ekene” I say as I hand his phone back to him. “I have to go now though so I guess, we’ll text”
I walked away with a smile on my face and that smile remained for the whole day even when those market prices were squeezing my neck. I was unfazed because fine man don toast me today.
He called me later that evening and we talked and talked and talked some more.
Omo see sweet voice.
Ahn ahn.
It felt like honey inside a warm cup of chocolate and he kan fine ontop.
We went on our first date two weeks later.
Then a second date.
A third then, I got a very sweet surprise.
Yes, baby! Yesss. I don too tey for this single life.
TikTok people, una no go hear word today.
And so it began, the beginning of a beautiful relationship.
Raymond is the most intentional man I know. We weren't wealthy by any means but we would go to the ends of the earth to make each other happy.
We found solace in each other, he was my gist partner, my best friend..
Everything.
Chai, I’m a finished woman and I don’t mind one single bit.
I was at my happiest and that’s not even the best part!
He asked me to be his wife and I said yes.
I said yes to the man of my dreams in my dreams. 🥹
Are you confused? Okay, let me break it down for you.
Imagination wan FINISH me. 😂
