After some days, I came back home,and everyone was very happy to see me,,you scared us to death,, where have you been ,Ade,where have you been mom asked,,, please just let her be,aunt Eniola said,,,I acted surprised to see that ID was in my house…. That evening after dinner, father called everyone to the sitting room….
My sister is right,he started. I can not choose for my daughter,, I can only give advise and hope for the best, he added,she’s the one that will live with the him after all, nobody chose my wife for me….if my daughter thinks Idemudia is good for her,then so be it,he turned to ID,,, I hope you love my daughter as much as she loves you, my daughter is my Jewel, please I beg you in the name of anything you hold dearly,do not cause my daughter to tear,do not make her regret this sacrifice, I love her so much,she Is our last child and only daughter,,,,father, I promise to make her happy all the days of her life, ID said,,, father turned to me,Ade are you sure its this young man you wish to spend your forever with ,he asked me,,,yes daddy I am very sure,I replied with a beautiful smile,,okay then, i give my blessings….let his kins men fix a date and we shall receive them warmly,daddy said…
By the way,what do you do, dad asked him,,,I have a small typing shop in Benin sir…ID replied,,,, Is that what you intend to raise a family with ID couldn’t say more,really what he gets from his typing wasn’t really enough,,he has been looking for a job…
Should you get a bigger job somewhere in Lagos will you relocate, father asked him…yes of course sir,I shall.
Okay then, let’s see what we can do.
I and ID knelt down in excitement,,, and thanked
him.we went back to Benin to inform his family about the new development, they were very happy that my parents have given their consent…
Soon the wedding bells were ringing… My parents didn’t leave the wedding expenses on ID, they assisted him the very best way they could…. It was a big celebration,,,,, and I had officially become Mrs Ade Osawaru….
After our one month honeymoon in Dubai courtesy of dad,we were back in Nigeria…. Dad gave us a house and a car in Lagos… He also gave a company to my husband, with his name on the document as the CEO,the company was our wedding present,,,dad brought out the documents of everything and asked my husband to give his signature as the head of the family.
We almost died of shock,the presents were just so overwhelming…. We had tears of joy rolling down our cheeks,we didn’t expect so much from dad,I knew ID wasn’t rich, and I was ready to start from the beginning with him,but I didn’t imagine God could use my dad to bless us this soon…..
My husband turned to me with tears of joy in his eyes,hugged me tightly, and blessed the day he met me,,,he promised to love me all the days of his life, those beautiful words of his,filled my heart with so much joy…
Oh how I love him…
