We met at a mutual friend's birthday party. While we weren't looking at each other that way, we knew that there was something special about the other from conversations throughout the night. Michael caught Shayla's attention because he made sure she got home safe that night. After hanging out a time or two and casual conversation, Michael came to Shayla's birthday party later that year and showered her with love and celebration. Unbeknownst to him, it had been a devastating week for her and he truly showed his incredible nature. A week later, on what supposed be another casual hangout, sparks started to fly and we both knew something different was happening. While we both tried to fight what was happening, God had other plans...and here we are. ❤️
