Peter and Seun were always by each other's side right from when they were little kids. They both lived on the same street in Springfield town, participated in similar activities, and shared a bond unlike any other. Their friendship was precious to them as it stood strong despite everything life had thrown their way; they knew that someday would never come where they wouldn't need one another again - this was why Peter promised Seun something special...he swore an oath of marriage between themselves should anything happen down along the line so nothing could ever break apart what already felt immutable.
As time passed, Peter and Seun's personal journeys diverged.
A relocation with his parents, took Peter to another state entirely, which was really far from their hometown...while Seun still remained rooted there with her parents. As they grew older, all connection between them dissipated but neither of them failed in keeping true to what they pledged to one another previously.
After a span of 17 years, Peter returned to his hometown for a short vacation. His mind was constantly plagued with questions about Seun and her fate in life. Learning that she was still living in the same house she used to, brought immense joy upon Peter, prompting an intense eagerness towards reuniting with her once again.
Peter went to visit her one evening, and as soon as Peter and Seun set eyes on each other again, they felt like no duration had gone by. The two embraced each other
And gisted for several hours. Throughout their exchange, memories crawled back into recollection which detailed the oath they made in years past.
With a grin adorning her face, Seun spoke of the promise they made to each other - that one day they would become united legally.
For sure Peter still recalled the past. "The memories are still vivid in my mind. Tell me dear, is it your wish to spend forever alongside me?"
Seun quickly replied affirmatively, expressing no hesitation in the matter at hand. "The passing years have been filled with anticipation for your arrival." she declared.
Filled with ecstasy, Peter's innermost desires came to fruition when Seun reciprocated his affection. Without hesitation and overflowing with excitement, she suggested they take the next step in their relationship by getting married.
Seun gave her word and together they embarked on mapping out their nuptial ceremony. Their joint decision was to select a day, scout for an ideal location, then dispatch the invitations to all loved ones in attendance.
As the day of their nuptials approached, a series of unfortunate events began to unfold. At first it was discovered that the venue they had selected had unintentionally scheduled another event on the same date as theirs which prompted them to find an alternative location immediately. Subsequently, Seun's gown suffered damage, one which couldn't be repaired; this left her with very little time before her wedding day to acquire a new outfit suitable for such an occasion.
Despite the several challenges Peter and Seun encountered, the both were unwavering in their pursuit to orchestrate the quintessential wedding.
At last, the anticipated day arrived. Two individuals named Peter and Seun congregated at a sacred place encircled by their loved ones to communicate their promises of loyalty to each other. The rite was aesthetically pleasing that it manifested strong emotions between these two lovebirds for one another as observed through everyone's eyes in attendance.
Peter leaned in close to Seun's ear and murmured sweetly "This occasion is even better than I had imagined...it fills me with an overwhelming joy that we are finally here after 17 long years.
Seun made this heart warming eye contact with Peter and said "same I couldn't imagine entering matrimony with anybody other than you."
As the couple prepared to commence their reception, a very bad incident happened again. It was a fire outbreak which erupted within the culinary quarters causing an evacuation of all inhabitants in the hall at that time. Although there were no reported injuries or fatalities, the matrimonial celebrations transitioned into a fiasco.
Peter and Seun were really saddened by this. The extent of their investment in preparing for an ideal event had been significant, but all seemed to have been rendered useless at that moment. At a loss over what to do next, they sat pondering the situation without direction or remedy at hand.
Whilst watching the fire fighters(who came almost immediately )do their job, the both of them clenched onto each other's hands tightly, and finally came to apprehend that all those desires were insignificant. Being wedded was paramount above everything else. The festivities could occur on another occasion or within an alternative venue. They had commenced their journey as one unit and nothing would hinder them from advancing forward together.
They both embarked on a journey together, confronting any obstacles with affection and perseverance. They remained inseparable companions, enamored with each other as ever before while retaining an unwavering loyalty to one another.
