The perfect mistake

When they say mistakes happen for a reason, that explains us. We knew of each other but we didn't know each other. We saw each other at various events but never really talk to one another. Then one day, Keith's friend Tray told him someone liked him. Keith then introduced himself to Deshon online & they began talking for hours at a time. They continued long conversations with one another not realizing that their pursuit of happiness was within reach. Keith then reached out to Tray thanking her for telling him of who had feelings for him & that things were going good. It was then that Keith found out that he was speaking with the wrong person. Same name, different person. However, no regrets. As time went along, Deshon & Keith began to spend a lot of time together. Keith would do house get together & Deshon would help him ensure that everything was good throughout. Deshon & Keith began traveling. Deshon would be there for Keith at his most difficult time of his life. When his dad was getting ill & unfortunately was called home. Deshon ensured Keith's dad enjoyed one last birthday with his family by preparing the house with food, beverages, balloons & cake. Keith's dad saw what she did & told Keith, "Don't let her go". Keith took to dad words & began thinking of proposing to Deshon. Deshon was doing a cookout one father's day where Keith began asking Deshon's kids (Wayne, Michael, Chris, Jaquan, Kevin & Ty) how would they feel about it & they was all for it. The blessing to make it happen was to ask Deshon's daughter Janay for her mother's hand in marriage. Janay said yes. Deshon was doing another cookout in memory of her brother to which she had no idea of what was to come. As Keith was consoling her, her children held up signs saying "Will you marry me" while Case "Happily ever after" was playing. Keith turned Deshon around to read the signs. Deshon shockingly walked away in joy. Keith got to 1 knee, Deshon said yes & the rest is history.
