"So what do you think?"
I ask showing Biko the file Zonke gave me, he pages through it quietly
"this is nice"
He says pointing out a garden themed wedding
"That's was the one I picked too, it's simple and beautiful but still elegant in every way"
I say and he kisses my cheek
"Just like you"
He says and I poke him
"whatever. So what colours were you thinking? Because I was thinking your old boring shades of white and shades of grey"
I say, I know it's boring but I love how shades of white and shades of grey go together
"I thought you'd want a bit of colour"
He says
"I know and I do want a bit of colour but I want most of the décor to be those colours with different coloured roses on each table. I don't want the dark grey, I want neutral colours you know. Or maybe rose gold, that's classy and elegant"
He chuckles
"What?"
I ask and he shakes his head
"Nothing, i'm just enjoying this sight of you"
He says, I frown still confused
"this cute frustrated and yet excited side of you my love. I love it"
He says and I can not help the blush that spreads across my face
"you annoying. Biko concentrate marn!"
I say and he chuckles
"fine, this looks nice"
He says after flipping the page to display the stage decorated with pink and white roses where the bride and the groom are supposed to stand
"It's beautiful"
I say
"So we want this yes?"
He asks and I nod quickly
"Yes, this is perfect, this is where I want to say 'I Do'"
I say and he smiles
"And what about the weather? June is pretty cold"
He reminds me
"I know which means less people are going to come but then it means I can't quite get the garden wedding I want"
I say pouting, I never took into account the weather when we decided on the date
"The date isn't final, we can get married officially in June and then have a wedding in September"
He suggests and I turn to him and smile
"really?"
I say and he smiles nodding
"Look, we are in no rush are we?"
He asks and I shake my head no
"then lets tie the not in court and then have a wedding in September. Gives the planner enough time don't you think?"
He says and I nod
"Sthandwa sam"
I say getting on top of him
"yes Yoza wam"
He says and I smile and wrap my arms around his neck
"Thank you for loving me as I am and for accepting me as simple and boring as I am, thank you for your patience and the love you continue to show me everyday"
