“We fell in love. Started dating. And in 4 days, HE PROPOSED. ‘I am in love with you Mary. And if we cross this month, we will be together forever’ I didn’t know how to respond. 4 days was too early to be thinking of ‘forever’ I guess. But the guy get plans. ‘I was born to make the world’s silkiest moves’ He says. Funny, but believed him. He worked tirelessly and I never saw him fall asleep. Though those days were humbling sha. Mattress on the floor. Mosquito net on the wall, No clean running water, shared kitchen with 5 staff, na so person go tie towel go fetch water, staff go dey drag space with am. He had no car yet (we used mine) But he talked big and worked ‘bigger’. I love AMBITIOUS.”
