Chapter 1 Chance Encounter
Yecan, a man with a heart full of dreams and a pocket full of newfound wealth, felt the time was ripe. He had ticked off the first three items on his life's checklist: a thriving business, a sturdy house, and the financial security of his siblings. Now, marriage beckoned, a shimmering mirage on the horizon.
Loneliness, a persistent companion, had whispered its siren song, urging him to skip to the fourth item on his list. He sought divine guidance, a whispered prayer for a woman to share his life, a woman he could love and cherish. He promised God he was ready, capable of providing for her, ready to embrace the responsibilities of a husband.
