My Cousin and I went out for a drink one night. As we were standing and looking at the crowd, my cousin spot 2 guys walking in. She gave me a hit in the side and said "check the 2 guys at the door". I saw them but couldn't be bothered and went on with my conversations. Mean while the 1 of the 2 guys who walked in saw me, and said to his friend look at the girl with the blue top standing there, but they also did nothing. As the night went by, my cousin asked one of our friends to go and ask the number of one of the 2 guys, which was Francois. Our friend decided to tell Francois that I was looking for his number and Francois gave the wrong number, later that night he felt guilty and came to say sorry and give the correct number. Me not knowing of anything about numbers being swapped or anything gave one look at Francois and did not understand anything he was talking about the numbers. Later on our way home I went to give him a hug and said goodbye have a nice night, he walked me to my car and only then we swapped numbers. We chatted for 2 weeks, until his friend Ulla that was with him the night we met, threatened to brake their friendship if he doesn't ask me on one date . . . we went for that one date and 4.5 years later we are getting married!
Francois came and surprised me one Friday night at one of our horse shows after about a 2 month long distance thing we had going. The Saturday he wasn't himself, but I couldn't give all my attention to him because I was competing myself and the whole family was there to support. The Saturday night after the show he poured me a glass of wine and we all stood by the fire and having a nice family braai. The next moment I heard something cling in my glass and I asked Francois what was in it. He took my glassed poured out the remaining wine and went on his knees infront of the whole family asking me to marry him.
