Aww this is so touching and LOVELY. It paid off though.
Ladies better start talking when you see a man you admire o. You don’t need to
ask him out, just get a conversation going whenever he comes around like Helen
Paul did. Helen and her hubby now have three kids together and have been
married for 5 years. Oya read her trick…lol.
Speaking on how she met her husband to Sun, she said;
''I met him through my boss where I was formerly working. He
was a friend to my boss. While he always saw me as too playful and jumpy, I saw
him as too stingy'', she said while laughing.
According to Tatafo, the reason she thought her husband was
stingy was that whenever he came to the office, he never bothered to buy
anything for her and her co-workers unlike her boss’ other friends who were
always generous. Continue,..
“Those days when my boss’ colleagues came visiting, they always
reached out to us when leaving. They gave us money which we used to buy
doughnuts and soft drinks but my husband never gave us anything.
“He would just wave his hand and say ‘bye bye guys, take
care of yourselves’,” she says, mimicking a stern and unfriendly male voice,
adding, “So we always saw him as a selfish lawyer.”
However, one day, Tatafo and her colleagues were up to the
hilt and so she summoned all the courage she could and decided to confront him.
“On that fateful day, I summoned courage and as he was
leaving, I told him, ‘sir, you don’t buy us anything any time you come but we
really like you. If you can be buying us doughnuts and soft drinks, we would be
very grateful’. He started laughing, so I quickly added, ‘sir, it’s not only me
o. My colleagues are also involved, so please don’t tell our boss’.”
Indeed, Tatafo’s move paid off as her future husband laughed
it off after which he reached into his pockets and gave them ‘something’ for
lunch.
“We were so happy I asked for his phone number which he gave
me. And then I gave his number to my friends and we all started calling to
thank him. He realised that we really desired the doughnuts and soft drinks so
whenever he came by, he would give us money for doughnuts and soft drinks. He
never failed to deliver whenever he showed up and we never stopped thanking
him. And then one day, he took a good look at me and said ‘baby, I love you’
and the rest is history.”
