I'll be there

I met my soul mate at the tender age（幼年） of seventeen. He was obviously attracted to me and was very excited to be in this encounter. He inquired about（查问，询问） my residence, and understood directions completely because we are from the same hometown. He said I'll meet you there at midnight, and he was on time.

When he arrived I was sitting on my car hood（车棚）eager with anxiety tinged（淡色的） anticipation（预期，预料）. He approached with a big handsome smile and bright eyes and took my hand and said lets walk. I slid off the hood（头巾，兜帽） and proceeded to my parents driveway with him.

As we turned into the driveway hand in hand he stopped me and stood facing me. He said smiling "are you seeing anybody?" I replied "no". He looked quizzically（带有疑问地，嘲弄地） at me and said "yes you are, your seeing me!"I made him go home around three a.m. though he protested he did go home but returned around nine a.m. later that morning.

The day flew and before I knew it I was at a basketball court at midnight watching him shoot hoops（篮筐）with friends. After anyone would make a basket he would come over and kiss me. I realized that he was very into me so I pulled him from the game to sit with me at a picnic table; nearby but reasonably private.

He said I have something to tell you, "I have a one month old daughter". I asked "do you still have ties with the mother?" He then offered that they had been separated for the duration of the pregnancy（怀孕） and that he was sent away when he attempted to visit the hospital shortly after she was born. 

I then said "I have something to tell you too". He sat as if to say "bring it on". I shared "I'm five months pregnant with my ex-boyfriend's baby". Almost immediately after this statement he replied calmly, yet seriously "I'll be there".

And he was, our baby was born a few months later and he loved this child completely. We also loved each other completely, so completely that we had another baby every three years. It's been ten and one half years now and we still want to spend eternity（来世，不朽） together. Our family of six fills our home now because this man filled my heart. I pray that all may experience this kind of love.
