Dev POV
Lately things between me and Ania have been beyond great. I've cut my hours at work down so that I could spend more time with her and Kanani and it seems to have made Ania very happy. Out of all honesty it's made me very happy too.
I love my family and I love my life I wouldn't change anything about it. Almost everyday I find myself falling more and more inlove with Ania and I've never been more sure she's the one I wanna be with forever.
Today were having a family get together over at our place and I'm excited to see all my family I haven't seen since Kanani was born especially my dad I know his health isn't up to par so I need to make sure he's good. Most of all I need to ask him what he thinks about me wanting to get a ring for Ania.
Yea I said it a RING!! I'm think I'm ready for that next step I want to give her my last name and make this family more complete. I just don't know when the right time is.
** 3 HOURS LATER **
All of our family had begun to arrive causing us to give multiple hugs and kisses on the cheeks. Constantly hearing
"Ooo Dev!! You are all grown up now!! That's crazy!!" It was honestly hilarious to me because they would have that same reaction just about 10x more energetic when they seen just how big Kanani has grown! I couldn't help but smile at all the love my baby girl was receiving. It let me know that if anything ever happened to me and Ania my princess would still know what it's like to have family by her side.
After greeting everyone we all Ate then went out separate ways; women gathered around each other, the men and I did our thing, kids went and did there's, and of course teenagers all found somewhere to charge there phones. I'm not gone lie I do the same when I go to gatherings.
As we all sat around talking and joking I couldn't help but peep dad sitting in the corner quietly so I approached him.
"Pops you good?"
"Yea son I'm just fine a little tired that's all"
"You sure?"
"Yes I'm sure! Stop acting so worried" I told my dad Id stop being paranoid but lord knows I can't. Looking at my dad us like looking at a completely different person from 2 years ago he was so energetic and filled with life but now he's always so tired and always sick. I hate seeing him like this it just reminds me that we don't have much time left with him.
"Aye pops can I talk to you about something?"
"Yeah, what's up?"
"I'm thinking about making Ania my wife but how do I know for sure she's the one?"
"Would you give up the world to be with that girl?"
"Yes"
"Would you take a bullet for that girl?"
"Yes"
"Can you imagine what life would be like without her?"
"No sir"
"Well then she's the one. What more do you need to know?"
"Idk pops I just wanna be sure before we make that big step"
"Trust me son she's the one. Now it's time for you to stop being afraid and grow up! It takes a real man to take that step and I know I raised a real man"
"You right you right"
That night before I went to bed all I could do was think about marrying Ania. I mean she's my rock and all but I mean am I ready for that?
