My Woman
Everything about our new neighbourhood was great and our new neighbours were more friendly than the neighbours we had in quarters G. What i loved most in the neighbourhood was the gym and the basket ball court because they both helped me engaged my mind on positive stuffs because when it wasn't school then it was gym.
My seventeenth birthday was the most celebrated birthday i ever had and the icing on the cake was the birth of Ivory,her mother was our most valuable neighbour,she was more friendly than everyone and each time we needed anything,she was there to provide it and that cemented the relationship we shared with her family. Her two older children were always seen around us.
I left the Neighbourhood when i turned twenty to pursue a career in electrical engineering and my quest to become a good engineer opened the door for me to leave the shores of the country for Japan where i enrolled in one of the leading Engineering schools in Tokyo and also took up a part time job.
I knew what i wanted in life from my childhood and i was determined to give myself my best so i took my studies my top priority perhaps that was why i excelled in Japan despite the language barrier. The nineteen years i spent in Japan was crowned with home sick. There was no day i didn't missed home and all my friends. Coming back to establish my own Engineering firm was followed up by my desire to get married.
There were so many nice and intelligent women in line for me to select a wife from and among them was Jennifer. She was endowed with all the virtues and qualities i needed in a wife and it didn't took us time to blend with each other,if love at first sight is not true then my relationship with Jennifer proved that theory wrong because we fell in love with each other the very first day we met.
I was devoted to be the best for Jennifer but everything about us changed the very minute i saw her picture, she sent me a friend request on Facebook though i always felt reluctant to accept requests from people i do not know but there was this thing about her and looking at her picture,i remembered the neighbourhood, she looked just like her mother and at twenty two was already elegant.
We became friends on Facebook then arranged a meeting, that day with her was the best day of my life, she was pure,descent and most of all down to earth, i remembered carrying her as a baby. How time fly,the baby i fed and also helped changed her dippers stood right in front of me a grown lady,her legs were like the work of a craftsman and her two big deals like twin towers.
I didn't need anyone to tell me that she was my woman because everything i felt for Jennifer died the very minute i kissed Ivory. Well, it's been five years with my woman and we just welcomed our second son.
