Sunday Morning

07:30AM

It's gonna be a great day today,it's the Lord's day and I'm feeling very blessed and I couldn't be more happier. Taraji laid peacefully with her head on my chest, I placed my had on her stomach and my baby started moving, ever since I felt her move last week it's like she knows when it's her daddy

Taraji:Uhh Uhh

She hates it when I touch her stomach because the baby starts moving.

Terrence:Wake up baby we going to church remember ?
Taraji:Morning
Terrence:Morning

She gave me a quick pack then went to the bathroom. I got up from the bed and took out a small box from the side drawer,I bought this ring a week ago and I've been wanting to propose but I just haven't found the right time cause there is nothing more I want than to make her my wife today.


I prepared breakfast for us because everything Taraji does these days is extra slow and I'm the slow one,I'm gonna propose now there's no turning back.

Taraji:You made breakfast?
Terrence:Yes take a seat my Queen
Taraji:Where's Brooklyn?

She tool a seat next to me and didn't waste time devouring her food

Terrence:She didn't sleep home
Taraji:Mhhh, baby this good.
Terrence:Baby you know I love you right?
Taraji:Is this about yesterday? Baby I'm sorry I know I overreacted and...
Terrence:Baby you know I love you more than any other women I've ever been with in my life and I want to spend the rest of my life with you

I went on one knee and pulled out the 24 carat platinum ring

Taraji:But...
Terrence:No buts just listen. Baby that's why I want to ask you will you spend the rest of your life with me and marry me?
Taraji:Huh?
Terrence:Baby marry me today
Taraji:Yes baby yess I'll marry you

I slid the ring in her finger and pulled her by her waist then kissed her but she pulled away after a minute.

Taraji:Wait you said today?
Terrence:Yes...Let's get married today. I called your dad yesterday and he gave me his blessing and I don't see the need to wait anymore baby what do you say?
Taraji:Baby I don't have a dress or anything
Terrence:Baby we don't need all of that right now,we can have that later after the Princess is born. I'll call Webb as my witness and you'll call Marlo
Taraji:What about our parents
Terrence:This is our family now,you, Brook our Princess and I. So we don't need anyone's approval,your parents already know that I'm proposing. Come on let's go.
