I acquired his quantity after which despatched him a howdy. I acquired the video I wanted, however Jibola and I saved on speaking. We started to speak day by day, and Adeola even teased me sooner or later. Jibola and I simply clicked. Our communication by no means stopped. Even when my cellphone acquired stolen sooner or later, he reached out to my sister to get to me. I bear in mind us sending textual content messages backwards and forwards on my torchlight cellphone. Earlier than this time, whereas we had been nonetheless pals (no less than in my thoughts), Jibola had already begun calling me “spouse.” He additionally despatched me plenty of presents for Valentine’s Day and my birthday as effectively.

Remember that throughout all of this, we nonetheless hadn’t met bodily. It was lots of cellphone calls and DMs. We turned official and finally met two months later. We have now been Love Bubbles and Starlight ever since. Jibola and I’ve been collectively for a few years now, and our love has solely grown stronger.
