You light up my World

We met at Bluegreen Vacations in New Orleans, LA. I had just started working there about a month earlier when my coworkers began mentioning that "Kamille and Saint might be coming back to work here!" They seemed really excited when they talked about them, especially Kamille, saying, "Oh Sean, you're gonna LOVE Kamille! She's great, and your personalities are similar!" Needless to say, we immediately hit it off as friends the moment we met. I always tell Kamille that there was something in her eyes that day—a little twinkle that told me she was "The One." After spending some time with her and observing her, I realized she started to check off my "Things You Look For in a Wife" list. With this new perspective, I felt I needed to seek guidance. I prayed for wisdom: "Aye Lord, should I let this opportunity pass or make a move?" God tapped me on the shoulder and said, "Go ahead!" Due to my playful personality, Kamille thought nothing of it when I would jokingly tell her she was my soulmate. We were together every day—her, Saint, and me—the three of us as best friends. It wasn't until the night of the Bluegreen Halloween Party, while taking a photo and looking into her eyes once again, that I felt a deep connection, almost as if we were communicating telepathically. I started to blush like a child and thought, "Oh boy, maybe this could really be something." I kept my cool and played the role of a good friend, not wanting to make things awkward in case her feelings weren’t mutual. However, I was playing it too cool and ended up friend-zoning myself. I confessed my true feelings for her, but once again, she thought I was just joking. It wasn't until her birthday party that I finally mustered the courage to make my move. We spent the first year of our relationship long-distance between Texas and California, but we were on FaceTime day and night—no matter where we were or who we were with, a phone was always propped up close by. On September 11, 2023, we moved into our apartment together, and on September 25, 2024, I made it official, proving that (*cues Wale ft.
