Our Love Story

It all started twelve years ago, I was working in Pediatrics ward in BRTTH a hospital in our locality. I was running late which is actually normal for me, I was rushing to go to the medication room to start my day and as I was passing I saw a girl in a group sitting on a bench, and this girl was like looking at me with a very judging eyes and I was like “ what’s wrong with her?”

So I proceeded to the room to do my job I asked my colleagues who are this people, She said new nurses of the RN HEALS. I didn’t think much about it and then this lady approached me and she said she’s going to shadow me, I m not really in to having an apprentice tailing me because I feel like it slows me down and I feel I will be judged of whatever I m doing but I allow her. Then we did our medication rounds together had a little chat about nursing and how we do things in the ward.

Then I ask her what’s her name she said her name is “Jha Jha” and I also introduce myself to her. As the days goes by we are more and more acquainted with each other, and then I saw a picture of her on her phone and I was like “you’re really pretty in that picture” and someone I think one of her friend blurt out that she actually joined a pageant, and I was like “That’s so cool you should give me your number” that’s me getting slick called here Babes Jha from thereon. I texted her didn’t received a reply, I texted her again received a very dry reply, the reply that you need to think of a topic just to keep the conversation going. It went like this for like 2 or 3 weeks.

Then I think it was October or November when I received a text message from her which is weird for the fact that she is the first one who initiate a conversation. In my mind I said “ I let this girl have a chance on me” haha. Had a wonderful conversation with her, then it blossomed to something mutual and romantic, courted her for a month or two. Got my 2nd most desired “yes” after days of courting. We are in a relationship for twelve years now with ups and downs both in our relationship and our career. I asked her to marry me on her 35^th birthday, we had a dinner date in the Shard overlooking the London skyline one of the most beautiful skyline in the world which I think pales in comparison to her beauty.

I did not kneel because bosses don’t kneel, just kidding I want to kneel but my knees and my muscle completely froze I’m so nervous that day I actually have a very romantic spiel before I give her the ring but my anxiety got the best of me, didn’t say anything romantic but it’s a complete comedy. Got my most desired “yes” that day. And now I am looking forward for my most desired two words. This is my version of the story and I stand by it. :P
