Our story began on a Christmas Eve, the day was quite restful as my schedule was absolutely clear for the entire day. On my way to bed I heard a cry from downstairs, “Omario, let’s go!” I was completely ignorant to what was going to happen, apparently they were heading to a Christmas event and I was invited. With much hesitation I decided to go, there was little to no effort in my attire and I was definitely not excited. Upon arrival we were greeted by a massive crowd, all having a grand time, apparently it was a cookout, it wasn’t so bad after all. Accompanied by my cousin (Romario), Aunt Jacinth and Uncle Winston we all were having a decent time, the music was a vibe and the atmosphere was just right. About an hour passed and my eyes were blessed with a woman sent straight from heaven, Gods perfect creation, she was literally glowing from the other side of the room; she was special. After being captivated by her beauty for sometime I decided without hesitation that I must approach her. She was with a friend though and every man knows never to approach a woman with her friend/s alone. I nudged my cousin and briefed him on the situation, he obliged and the mission was on its way. I floated in her direction still in awe of her beauty, absolutely clueless as to what I’m going to say to her. This is it, Romario has successfully distracted her friend and now I have this astounding woman in my ball court. I asked her for a dance and she obliged. We danced the night away, what a surreal feeling to be so close to a queen who I knew could possibly be my queen one day. She didn’t make it easy though, the only thing I got that night was a instagram page handle; but now I have her heart and she has mine.

It was my birthday and a photo shoot was planned to commemorate this milestone. We had a packed day and there was no time to rest. With all this going on I knew this was going to either be the best day of my life or the worst. Even with all this pressure she had no clue what I had planned. We made our way to the shoot site and the rain was pouring. When the rain subsided I approached the photographer and handed him off the ring, I had already explained to him what I wanted to do and he was fully onboard. In the middle of the shoot he asked Christina to pose in such a way that required her to turn her back and he then handed the box to me. In the pouring rain I bent my knee and waited for him to tell her to turn, this birthday shoot has now become an engagement shoot, I proposed, she said yes and that three letter word is far more precious to me than any gift I’ve ever received. I’ll value that moment for eternity.

The way God has worked out things in my life is only a true testament to how real he is. You were the good thing he had waiting for me all along. You were his plan for me, when I didn’t even know it, and I can’t even begin to express how grateful I am to call you mine. You are my light, my sunshine, and you brought just that when you stepped into my life. You add so much to my world, genuine pure happiness. You complement me; in every meaning of the word. You love me so much and you are so committed to our love, life, success, and journey. I can’t wait to continue to grow with you. God knew there was no one else for me to do that with but you. You are my prayer and I am yours. As far as dark matter and dark energy can reach the ends of the universe and touch heaven, I love you Omario Rosani Henton.
