Tell me why...
I'm getting married tomorrow and I'm here on DP warming up my feet.
Is that a bad thing?
I remember vividly the day we got engaged. I was shaking, unable to believe what just happened and the effort he put in to make it so magical. Him and I love playing games - board games, video games, anything. Anything to keep our mind and body challenged. One day he came to me with a game that was similar to scavenger hunt. But he took it to the next level. There were clues and maps everywhere. Starting from the first class we had with each other, to the university library, to the student center, to the first house i lived off campus. Some clues even went to my parents house 3 hours away. Every clue was a question about us. And once I knew the answer, I would go to that place to find the next clue. I was having so much fun playing this game I didn't even realize 3 days have gone by. I asked him if the game ever ends and he said the game ends with one final question and one answer. I told him it was the best game I ever played and didn't want it to end. He promised me that no matter what he would always have a game for me. On the third day we were back at our university and I picked up the final question that said, "will you marry me? You know where to find me no matter what your answer is". I didn't waste any time and rushed to the 1000 island cruise ship where we had our first kiss. He was all dressed up, with two little boxes in his hand. I was in tears as I walked closer to him. He had a little awkward smile, I knew he was just as nervous as I was. We stood there for a few seconds smiling at each other and he finally said, "I have 2 boxes in my hands. you get the box depending on your answer." I said yes and starting tearing, and he opened the box, popped up a ring, slid it on my finger and kissed me so tenderly. I couldn't believe all the effort and thought he put into making this the best game of my life. I asked him if I said no what was in the other box. He opened it and t had a little paper that said, "that's ok, no matter what, I will always have a game for you."
That was 2 years ago. I still get the chills and goosebumps when I think about it. Things have been so hectic lately with the wedding fast approaching. I've had my doubts about if we have what it takes to make this work. Before I would even bring it up, there he was already assuring me that no matter what we will make it work.. The wedding is tomorrow. I'm at my cousins house waiting for her to come back from the dry cleaners. I'm about to log off in 5 minutes. Probably might not come back here again. The people I used to associate with over here no longer log in. I have no way of telling them about my wedding. So hopefully, when you do log in and happen to read this, I hope life is treating you well and I just wanna let you know that...
Helen and Dan lived happily ever after :)
