Once upon a time, in the bustling halls of Ilanga Mall, fate decided to play matchmaker in the most unexpected way. Picture this: I was strutting my stuff, representing BMW with all the swagger of a car enthusiast, while my now-fiancée was dazzling customers with sparkly treasures at The Attic, a jewelry store that sounded way too fancy for someone like me.

Our paths crossed, but we were like ships passing in the mall, blissfully unaware of the romantic detour destiny had in mind. It wasn't until a year or so later that the universe gave us a nudge in the right direction.

Fast forward to a day when a vehicle under my wing, not exactly my personal chariot but a trusty steed I had acquired for the noble art of car flipping, required a bit of pampering at the panelbeater. Lo and behold, there she was, my future coffee buddy, hard at work. As she graciously offered me a cup of camaraderie, I, in my infinite wisdom, declined. Little did I know, turning down coffee would brand me with the title of possessing the trait "kaliba" – signifying someone who doesn't indulge in the generosity of others.

Feeling a twinge of regret for my caffeine standoff, I couldn't let this brewing connection fizzle out. So, I took to the modern-age romance playbook and sent her a heartfelt message on Facebook, apologizing for my coffee faux pas and promising that next time, I wouldn't miss the chance to share a moment with her.

And just like that, a quirky apology paved the way for laughter, shared moments, and countless cups of camaraderie. The rest, as they say, is history – a history that we're excited to continue writing together as we embark on this incredible journey called marriage. Join us as we raise our metaphorical mugs to love, laughter, and a happily ever after!
