We met on the streets of Lagos. We were both driving home back from work and somewhere around Anthony, he looked up and saw this babe. She didn't meet his gaze until further up front, around the u-turn that leads into Gbagada. At this point, he gave her right of way and let her drive in front of his car. As she drove on, she was thinking to herself, what a handsome gentleman! Could he be flirting? Is he tailing me? To confirm this, she veered off the main road to follow an alternative route which would also circumvent the traffic. At this point, he thought she was going to a different location and that he had lost her. Little did he know that they were going in the same direction still. About a km ahead, he saw her car coming and at a junction, yet again, he let her drive in front of his car. This time, she wound down, smiled at him and said, "twice in one day! thank you". At that point he said to himself, I better make a more intentional move. So a few minutes after, he drove right beside her car and asked for her number. She said, "you're gifting me your phone! thank you!" She collected the phone and drove off with it. Further ahead, she stopped to buy fruits along the road and that was when she gave him back his phone with her number already stored in it as "Mary Gbagada" and that's how God ordered their steps to each other Morale: Lagos traffic is not all that bad! Good things happen there too :-)

She saw the writing on the wall, the signs, the whispers to family and friends. This was unusual, coming from someone who does not hide anything, so she was expectant. On valentine's day, he took her to a fancy, sky view restaurant, she was certain it was going to happen there. In fact, a proposal happened right beside her but it was someone else going down for his loved one. Hers was not yet time. After getting prepared a number of times after that, she gave up, saying to herself "Que Sera, Sera". Apparently, Funto had been giving Dotun tips on how to surprise her ever-calculating sister. One fateful Sunday, after facilitating Data Analytics training together, Dotun said to Mary, let's go check out a bigger venue within the axis. Little did Mary know that he had sought the cooperation of the venue manager, her friends and family who had setup the room. Sisioja ensured it was beautifully decorated with scented candles, helium balloons, and "will you marry me" designed on the wall. As she stepped into the room, he got down on his knees and amidst cheer from friends and family, he asked her to marry him. She said Yes!
