The Story of us

Chapter One

Spencer’s Point of View

I sat on the porch as I looked over the ocean waters when my four children that are now grown came out to great me. “Hi, Dad.” My oldest son stated to me.

I looked up at him and smirked, “Hey, kids.” They all sat down in front of me when my only daughter smirked at me, “I got news.”

I chuckled as I tilted my head, “Oh, and what news is that dear?”

She held up her ring, “Marco, asked me to marry him!” I smirked at her as my eyes glimmered, “That is great news.” My oldest rolled his eyes, he is really a chip of the old man that sat in front from him. I leaned forward towards him, “What is it, son?”

He sighed, “I don’t see why marriage is all this big thing and all. I want nothing to do with it.” I nodded at him as I smirked, “You know what. I use to think just like you.” He chuckled as he shook his head, “Are you serious? You and mom has always been in love.”

I shook my head as I sat back, “Oh but it took a lot of work to get here, today. In fact, you was the reason why she came into my life when I thought she was just a one – nightstand.”

The twins gasped, “Dad.”

My beautiful wife came around the corner with a tray of iced tea, “He isn’t laying.” She sat down next to me as her hand went to mine. Man, I love this woman. My oldest shook his head, “Seriously dad.” I nodded my head, “We never told you kids about how we met?”

They all shook their heads. I looked at my wife as her blue eyes lit up, “Well, it is about time you hear it.”

I took a deep breath when I looked at my oldest, “I was about your age when I first met your mother.” His eyes widened, “Really?” I nodded, “I was twenty-eight and your mom just turned twenty-one.”

I closed my eyes as I started my story, “It was almost two months before the shut down from the COVID-19 pandemic. I went to Vegas for Uncle Tom’s bachelor party.”

“Did you hear what is happening over in China, right now?” Tom said to me as we walked through the airport. I tilted my head as we made it to bag check out, “Is it about the COVID?” He nodded, “Dude, it is going to hit here.” I snorted, “There no way.”

I noticed a young woman that was standing next to me. She was tiny compare to me. She was only five one with brown hair that flowed down her back.

She was the most beautiful woman I have seen but at the time I was so wrapped up in my own head that it didn’t even registered in my head. I noticed that she was dressed very well, too well. Designer clothes well.
