How they met:

My soon to be husband had been in the company I work with for over 3 months without me noticing him, not even once.

On this faithful Wednesday evening after work our eyes locked as he drove pass by me with another colleague while I was waiting for my uber. There was a mutual attraction there and then.

Yaw walked to my office the following day and offered to drop me home after work which I refused and as relentless as he can be, he kept insisting. I was left with no choice than to join him and this evening droppings became our daily routine. That’s where our little gossips and inquisitiveness started from, we would chat and still have something to talk about when we met.

Somewhere late 2019, he asked me out and I turned him down but he kept pursuing me. I later told him to give me sometime to pray about it, yep. And this was exactly his words ā€œYou can have all the time you need to pray; I’ll be here waitingā€. After about a month, I agreed to get to know him better.

Fast forward in 2020, We started dating with the intensions of getting married soon, little did I know that my soon was just around the corner. My husband to be asked me to marry him a day just after my birthday at my surprise birthday party. I had a double portion of surprises, and I couldn’t have said no to this big YES!
