I never believed in love at first sight; that kind of fantasy only happens in fairytales; not in the real world. Fairytales only happens to fictional characters in a romance novel, or a love story playing on the movie screen. Let me set the scene, Boy admires a girl from across the room, their eyes meet and it was love at first sight, hard to believe; but it happened to me.
Once upon a time, ok maybe not that straightforward; but close. My fairytales began; one cool January morning, the air was chilly and blustery. While sitting on my Aunt Emma’s porch, in a modest town near Jackson, Mississippi I met a man that I believed he was sent from God. I wanted to go inside, but something electric was keeping me from leaving the porch. I yelled to my daughter, please bring me a blanket. My aunt surrendered to the weather and went in doors.

I was shocked but attentive listening to every word he said. After listening for some time, I turned and said to him in a very shy tone, you knew nothing about me, and I knew nothing about you. He continued telling me more about his life and the path he choose to get closer to God. He was born and raised in Mississippi; his parents had passed away at a very young age and he was raised by his grandparents. Later that evening he invited me to dinner in the hope of us getting to know more about each other and I agreed. After dinner, we talked and talked for hours; for the next three weeks of my vacation, we didn’t leave each other sides.
After I returned home from vacation, Christopher and I dated long
