Part 1- Let's start at the Beginning
When Brianne was a teenager, her favourite pastime was to flesh out every aspect of her dream- wedding day! She had decided that the perfect age to marry was 25.
Her husband would be charming, and dorky… not spectacular to look at… but there would be something special about his eyes and smile that would sweep her off her feet! Tall or short? She liked both equally! Tall guys had a goofy charm about them and short guys carried themselves with a sexy swagger. Yes, they’d meet unexpectedly, become friends that secretly longed for each other, and finally get married on a happy, sunny day! Oh, and he HAD to be Catholic! There was no question of marrying someone from another religion!
The years rolled along. Cute guys came and cute guys went. It didn’t matter because none of them were Catholic. Brianna was already 24.
And then! One sunny day! Quiet unexpectedly! Brianna’s boss tells her that someone was hired to join her team and would formally start work the next day.
Brianna didn’t know anything about this mysterious new joinee but she could hear bells tolling in her heart. She looked forward to the next day.
“Hi! You must be the new joinee! Welcome to our little office! I’m Brianna!”
“Hi Brianna, I’m Radley.”
5’11. Bearded. A big guy. Not fit but not fat either. Generic shirt and trousers. A super- deep mellow voice which was unbelievably sensual and calming at the same time. “Hmmmm… interesting addition to our team,” she thought to herself.
“By the way, Brianna. This is very random… but since you’re the first person to speak to me, I thought I could ask you something totally unconnected.”
“Sure, go ahead.”
“I’m new to this state. I just arrived yesterday and am yet to find my feet here. Do you know of any Catholic churches nearby?”
She was zapped. The surroundings automatically shushed into silence. Her mind was numb. Her heart was thudding. Her soul realized that Destiny was already at work.
