It wasn't smooth, it wasn't love at first sight, it wasn't amazing.
But after a while, we grew together, we both realised that we were soulmates.
I'll admit, when I first saw her, I wanted to be with her, but love?
One day, a few years after we started being a couple, we just knew.
We tried to get married, but both parents blocked us (we were 22)
We tried just getting married by ourselves and with some friends, but the minister told our parents, because he said we should not live our lives away from family.
We eventually got married.
