After meeting, we immediately struck up a conversation because we both lived in the same area. Karima continued where her husband had left off, saying, "He proposed to me on Christmas day in 2022." Although everyone in the family knew he was going to pop the question, it surprised me nonetheless.

I hope the couple has a lifetime of happiness and continues to maintain ties to their heritage.
