Happy Sunday Beautiful People

Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of a new morning and a new week.
As the sun rises, let Your mercy rise upon us. Strengthen every weak hand, encourage every discouraged heart, and breathe fresh hope into every troubled soul.

May doors of favor open today, and may no evil come near us.
Let our efforts produce results and our tears turn into testimonies in Jesus name. Amen.

Happy New Week everyone. May your week be great

My hubby refused to let me into his house because I fixed eye lashes 😭

Thank you Lord for the gift of a new day.

Happy New month from here

I just stood there… quiet.
Roland was on his knees, one hand stretched out, holding the ring, looking straight at me with so much hope in his eyes.

The whole shop was silent for a moment.
“Baby… answer me na,” he said softly. “I’m on my knees.”

My heart was beating fast.
I took a deep breath and finally spoke.
“Roland… I really want to say yes,” I said honestly. “But what do I even know about you?”

Everywhere became still again.
“We’ve only dated for six months… and you’re already proposing. That one is not even the main issue. I don’t know where you live. I’ve never seen your family. I don’t really know your life.”

I wasn’t shouting. I was just… being real.
He listened carefully.
Then he smiled.

Not a defensive smile and not an angry one.
A calm, confident smile.
“I will answer all your questions,” he said.
He stood up slowly and came closer.

“Mona… from the first day I saw you, I already knew you would be my wife.”
My heart skipped.

“That’s why everything I’ve been doing… is not like I’m helping a girlfriend. I’ve been helping my wife.”

He paused, letting his words sink in.
“Why should I wait for years to propose when I already know what I want?” he continued. “I value you too much to play games or waste your time. I’m not that kind of man.”

I looked at him, searching his face.
There was no shaking or anything to hide. Just truth.

“I didn’t bring you to my house because I wanted to do things differently,” he added. “I wanted to be sure… and to show you my intentions clearly. I planned to propose first. If it’s God’s will and you accept… then everything else will follow.”

There was deep silence.
In that moment, I wasn’t hearing the crowd anymore.

I was just looking at him.
And somehow… I believed him.
Fully.

So I smiled softly and said,
“Yes.”

Before I could even process anything, Roland held my hand and said,
“Come, let me show you my house.”
Just like that.

We went straight from proposal… to reality.
When we got to his compound, he didn’t hide me.

He didn’t sneak me in.
He proudly introduced me to everyone.
“This is the woman I want to marry.”
The neighbours gathered, looking at me with curiosity.

They started murmuring among themselves.
One woman, who couldn’t hold it in, spoke out loud:

“Ah! Since all these years Roland has been living here, we have never seen him bring any woman to this compound o. At some point, we even thought maybe he is gây… because only men dey come visit am. My dear, you must be very special.”

I almost laughed in shock.
Roland quickly shouted,
“God forbid, mama Danny! It was just my principle. Only the woman I want to marry will know where I live.”

That statement alone further proved the kind of person he is.
We entered his house.
Everything was far better than how he had described it before .

It wasn't so much but organized and better than what I expected for a barchelor.

No unnecessary things, no show off but Just a man managing his space.

He looked around and said,
“Don’t worry about this place. I was a bachelor… that’s why it looks like this. But from today, we will start putting things together for our home.”

“Our home.”
That word settled differently.
Later that day, he called his parents.
That was the first time I spoke with them.
They sounded warm… happy and welcoming.

“Bring her home,” they told him.
And he didn’t waste time.
Before that month even ended, we traveled to his place.

His family received me like someone they had been expecting.

They gave me so much Love. Peace and Respect. There was no tension or unnecessary drama.
I loved them instantly.
