Twelve months into their relationship, Francis proposed to Natasha. The marriage proposal
came to Natasha as a surprise as she wasn't expecting it too soon. Her heartbeat was uncontrollable and She was having mixed feelings of both fear and excitement; she was afraid of the fact that her reckless past would stand as a hindrance to the beautiful love story, right in front of her. She was scared that Francis would walk away, if he ever found out that she was once a prostitute, She was nervous!

"Francis, why me?" She asked looking into his eyes,
"Because you have stolen my heart and everything just feels so right with you, I want you to be my wife" he replied. Francis stretched his hand as he was holding a golden ring with the tip of his fingers and he held Natasha's hand, he was so into her and didn't want to hold back any chance he had to make Natasha his wife.

On the other hand, Natasha fell into deep thoughts, she kept contemplating on whether to tell Francis the truth about her past or conceal it. "What if he finds out on his own, what if someone tells him? Oh Lord please I don't want to be disgraced again, I don't want to be heartbroken, I have vowed never to get married but I fell in love with Francis the very first time we met" She thought to herself.

As the atmosphere became quiet, Francis had to break the silence by asking Natasha again if she would marry him.
"I love you alot and we have dated for a while, but I just think it's not enough reason to get married "Natasha finally responded
"what are your fears?" Francis asked but she was mute.

"Natasha, I know Marriage is not a child's play and with the rate of divorce in the society we live in, can make one decide to remain unmarried, but our love story is different, please don't doubt my love, if you look closely, you will get to see and feel the genuineness of my feelings but honestly, if you weren't driving me crazy, I wouldn't be here. I really do love you and I want to marry you and be with you forever, If you would just say yes, please say yes, our love is forever" he said.

Natasha was confused and didn't know what to do, but one thing she knew was that she didn't want to lose Francis. You can hi wumie on 08127818304 to be added to stories kingdom, house of stories .
