As soon as I saw her, I was speechless. She was so beautiful! Perhaps she was the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my life. There were rumors that she lived in Paris before she moved to our city. When I first saw her, she was looking out the window and humming some funny song. I was in a hurry, and I didn't get a good look at her. But despite that, as soon as I saw her, I lost my head. Nothing to do! The next day I proposed to her. Ironically, she immediately agreed. We've been married for 20 years, and we've never had a fight. You can envy us!
