"Tremani, stop playing with me," She frowned causing him to shake his head, she always thought someone was playing with her.

"Tremani.." She said, her eyes watering as she watched him go in his pocket, pulling out a velvet ring box.

He opened the box, revealing a beautiful iced-out ring, one that was perfect for her. She immediately fell in love with it.

"Oh my God..." She said when he grabbed her trembling hand, kissing it lightly.

She couldn't help herself, she leaned down and placed a small kiss on his lips, she truly loved this man.

"I ain't even said nothing, why you crying mama?" He asked her, not even being able the smile he had on his face.

"Because this is so beautiful! And your son is doing cartwheels in my stomach," She frowned causing him and their family to laugh.

"Hurry Uncle E! We hungry!" Kafeya's daughter, Milan, fussed causing everyone to laugh.

"Ight, Ight...damn, ion even know where to start, uh, I remember when I first saw you, that shit was ghetto as hell. I almost shot yo' driver and shit, then I was mean as hell to you. But you was still so damn nice to me, which was crazy to me but that's just how you are,"

"You so kind, and caring regardless of what the situation was, and I think that's one of the main reasons why I fell in love with you. That's when you was tryna' act all innocent and shit, I know you far from that shit though. Shit, that's why you pregnant now, when we was on that boat and you-

"Tremani!" She exclaimed, cutting him off before he got deep into reminiscing.

"Lord," She heard his mother say as the rest of the family laugh.

"My bad, but on some real shit, you the love on my life Daila. I know we done had our times where shit wasn't the best, but the love I got for you ain't never going. It's so much shit that I love about you, but I'd need all the time in the world to finish even a third of that list. It be the little shit, like how you make sure to kiss me every time you see me, it don't matter if I was at work or if i just went to go to the bathroom in the middle of our movie, you still do it. You so attentive, and considerate. And you beautiful as hell on top of that, like that shit so crazy ta' me. Ion know what I did to deserve you, but I thank God for you everyday. You changed my life baby,"

"We was gon' be together forever regardless of what happened, but I'm tryna' make that shit more official. Like I want you to be the person to decide if I needa' get open-heart surgery or not, type shit,"

"So, Daila Imani Perkins, will you marry me?" He finished, and by that time Daila was a sobbing mess.

Kafeya, Blossom, and a few other people in the room were crying as well. It was such a beautiful moment to witness.

"Yes!" She exclaimed trying to pull herself together but it was no help. The family immediately clapped and cheered.

She watched him slide the ring on her hand which was shaking like crazy.

"You like it ma?"

"I love it so much! Get up so that I can kiss you!" She told him causing him to laugh, he placed a kiss on her belly before standing up and placing a kiss on her lips, keeping it family friendly, of course.

"I love you Tremani,"

"I love yo' pretty ass so much more,"
