The Proposal

Our love story has many beautiful chapters, but the day Kenny proposed stands out as one of the most unforgettable.

For weeks, he talked about how much he wanted to fly to Nigeria to celebrate my birthday with me, which I thought was incredibly thoughtful. True to his word, he arrived a day before my birthday, full of excitement and armed with a detailed itinerary of activities. It seemed like he had meticulously planned every moment of our time together, so I had no idea what was unfolding behind the scenes. One of the events on his carefully curated list was a special birthday dinner. I didn’t think much of it; we had always known from the beginning that we were meant for each other, destined for marriage. But as the evening progressed, something magical began to happen.

The proposal, disguised within the warmth of a birthday celebration, was more beautiful than I ever imagined. What made it even more special was that Kenny had secretly arranged for our families to be there, knowing how deeply I cherish them. Seeing their smiling faces as he got down on one knee filled my heart in a way words can hardly describe.

It was an easy, resounding “yes.” In that moment, surrounded by love and joy, we felt the excitement of stepping into a new chapter -one we are so ready to embrace, together.
