Based on a True Story..
When I think about how long ago it was, It still feels like it all happened in a rushed weekend and everything was perfect and almost surreal. I'm talking about my first love, or at least I thought he was until he broke the news to me that he had to move to Botswana because of work.
Koketso he was named, a tall, dark-skinned beauty, very intelligent with the most gentle and caring heart any man could possible have. He was my hero as cheesy as it may sound, but honestly he arrived in my life at a time where everything was just blank. My relationship with my family was nonexistent and well my friends, were just a memory of the past.
When I met him 3 years ago on this very same day, a Saturday 10th of December, I did not think much of the conversation we were having after he tried selling to me a nail filer. Heck, the first thing I thought was, why I was even entertaining this guy, who to me didn't reek much of success. I mean he was trying to sell to me a NAIL FILER for heaven's sake.
But I obviously gave him the benefit of the doubt and lend him an ear and he was pretty good with his words. We started dating a week later and things became serious a few months down the line.
