I am Engr Abraham Opaluwa a Nairalander with Username OPALU.

In 2007 I knew a Lady schooling in the East who pleased me so well. Fair to look upon. I planned to propose to her on her Birthday to be my wife. So I needed a Cake Designer who could inscribe her name on a well crafted cake. I travelled back from Kogi to Ogun where I based then. On my way, my younger brother in Kogi State Uni texted me the number of "the best cake designer in the school" as he put it. So right away I called her and gave her the job description. To my shock, she said "I will do the cake free of charge for you". As a guy who left a highly demanding relationship few years earlier, it sounded strange. I said look young lady, I do not give what doesn't cost me to someone I love besides you do not know me. She insisted that the only condition for her to do the cake is that I won't pay a dime. After a time I reluctantly agreed seeing that the date was drawing near and I had to return to meet cake ready.

That was how after that day, I saw myself calling both the "real' lady in Caritas and also calling the Cake girl in KSU. If I didn't call both no sleep.
But I discovered that whenever I call the real lady, I will loose my sleep due to her harsh and unfriendly words.
She probably knew I was going to propose and began playing hard to get. Whenever I was downcasted, the Cake Lady will call and her words will make me happy before I could sleep. This happened repeatedly.

If you have had a fatal heartbreak before, I don't think you need harsh words... sincerely.
That was how by the time I returned to Kogi, do you know that the lady I wanted to propose to had stopped picking my call? I had to call the Cake Lady to come to my house.

For the first time I looked upon her, I knelt down and proposed to her. She accepted right on the spot!! After we started courtship, I asked her why she agreed to do free cake for someone she hasn't known before or was that how she does business? She simply said that she had received in her heart just few days before I called that her husband was about to call her and had celebrated with her room-mates. So when I called, she needed to please me. She was just 21 years then in final year. We wedded the next year

Her name was Amalia and I changed her name to Sarah. Today, we are 8 years in Marriage with 3 lovely children. To God be the glory.
I am posting this because it is her birthday

Wow! This is lovely. May Almighty God continue to bless your union.

This is great. May God continue to bless your union
