Proposal

So, I was at the Constant Spring market yesterday.  I wanted papayas to make some fresh juice :)  I approached two younger ladies at their stand and asked for papayas.  One of the ladies assisted me and as I started walking away she called for me to return.  She motioned for me to come close.  She leaned forward and asked if I was a priest.  I laughed and said no.  I told her that I want to marry and have children, to have my own family.  She then proceeded to ask if I was married.  Not yet, I said.  She then asked if I had any children.  No.  The next words that came out her mouth were, "Will you marry me?".  My immediate reaction was to laugh but I soon realized she wasn't laughing along.  She was serious.  I told her that my girlfriend at home would not appreciate that.  She gave a smile as if she was happy that I have found someone :)  She then told me that I better marry my girlfriend when I return home and invite her to the wedding.

I laughed in agreement and said I will.
