Let's rewind from where we began. I remember, first time going out with him to Honey Lemon Cafe. He came with a Christmas gift - one set of "Thermos" brand lunch box. One of the dishes we ordered was mashed potato. We didn't finish it because there was lots of MSG in it!
Even when I was already in a relationship with him, it took me a long time before I told myself, yes, he is the one! I prayed to God for a man after God's heart because I know that other good characters will come into the place following that. To my surprise, God blessed me more than what I asked for!
During early days, when I was still emotionally immature, I was the one who always threw a tantrum at him. However, every time, he will talk to me nicely. Now, he has the ability to sense the aura before my volcano exploded for no reason. Probably my PMS, haha. More communication between us improves our relationship and nowadays I have no chance to be angry because he handled it so well, pampered me just like how my mum did!
Last time, I can start a fight just by bringing up an issue "why is he paying all the meals". Why so chauvinistic?! However, as times go by, I drowned in this blessing; his provision. Happiness can be as simple as that. There was once he brought my cousins and I out to McD; he secretly slipped two pieces of RM100 note to me to pay for our meal. It proved that my initial thought of his chauvinism was wrong. He is ok with me (a lady) paying... but with his money. He is a man with strong principle but at the same time he will he always listened to me and included me in all the discussion. Throughout this journey, we also learnt to agree to disagree and we appreciate our differences.
Understanding is very important in every relationship. My mum's initial worried that "a non medical background boyfriend will not be able to understand my hectic working life" is not an issue at all. I will said that he knows lots of medical stuff. He is willing to listen to all my stories and he picked up the medical jargon very fast. He can tell you what is intubation, CPR, caesarean section and etc.
We have gone through lots of ups and downs together. There was once we knelt down before God to ask for His healing hands. Whatever that we have gone through, made both us appreciate each other even more and we clearly know that simple companion is a type of happiness too. Together we laughed, together we cried.
We always talked about our faith and dreams, we may plan but eventually God is the ultimate planner. We have to just submit ourselves to Him. We also shared our perspective on family, financial etc. It is magnificent when your partner shared the same vision and dream with yours!

从前，他问我喜欢怎么样的钻戒，
我随口说了一句：简单就好。但香港戏里男主角求婚的戒子盒都是有灯的，好特别啊。
哈哈，真给你找到了。
谢谢你每一时，每一刻对我的细心。
谢谢你在平淡中，坚定的爱我。也不时的给我小惊喜。
你真正的在意，从来都是以行动表达出来。
爱情可以很简单，
这就是我所谓的“小幸福”。
我为此，感谢神！
