#Storytime: We Find Love In Strange Placesโค๏ธโค๏ธ

You never know where love may find you

It was a September evening in 2016 that I attended a Kanye West concert in DC with some friends. After the concert, we went to a local speakeasy to debrief our experience and catch up. After…several…cocktails ๐Ÿ™ƒ, my home-girl calls an #Uber to take us to one of our fave late night spots in the city.

The Uber pulls up, she hops in the back with her friend at the time, so I hop in the front. A few minutes into the ride, I look over at the driver and…my.word., I was just…๐Ÿ˜. So with my liquid courage STRONGLY intact๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿฝ, your girl shoots.her.shot. I ask โ€œ๐‘’๐“๐’ธ๐“Š๐“ˆ๐‘’ ๐“‚๐‘’, ๐’น๐‘œ ๐“Ž๐‘œ๐“Š ๐’ฝ๐’ถ๐“‹๐‘’ ๐’ถ ๐‘”๐’พ๐“‡๐“๐’ป๐“‡๐’พ๐‘’๐“ƒ๐’น?โ€ to which he responds, โ€œno maโ€™amโ€. Now as a city girl, I was like โ€œno maโ€™am?!?โ€ ๐Ÿง๐Ÿง but that didnโ€™t stop me from proceeding to ask โ€œ๐“Œ๐‘’๐“๐“, ๐“Œ๐‘œ๐“Š๐“๐’น ๐“Ž๐‘œ๐“Š ๐“๐’พ๐“€๐‘’ ๐‘œ๐“ƒ๐‘’?!โ€ ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ He flashes a handsome grin, laughing a bit at my audacity, we chat about music and such and he drops me and my friends off. Some areas of that convo are a bit blurry ๐Ÿฅด๐Ÿธbut Iโ€™d apparently given him my number before leaving.

A week later ๐Ÿ˜’, he texts me and โ€œCollusโ€ appears on my phone. I had no idea who he was ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ Soooo, I ask for a photo and when he sent it, I of course immediately remembered who he was.

Fast forward a year, we moved in together. Another year later, we were engaged. 6 months later, married, 4 months after that, pregnant and in a little over a week, weโ€™re making a huge move for our familyโ€™s future. โค๏ธ
