Details:
Before going for their EID celebrations early in the morning,
Maizal presented Lindsay with a gift; a partially started photo album with
pictures from the first nights they started dating to their last few dates
along with beautiful sayings in the memo field for each photo. Then, when
she reached the end of the photos, Maizal had inserted a note on a sheet:
"Our moments together have been dreamy and enchanting ...I want us to
continue making memories together for the rest of our lives ...Will you be
my wife?"
When Lindsay looked at Maizal with tears in her eyes, he presented the Ring
and asked if she wanted to marry him. She accepted and he ran around the
house screaming "Weeeeeeeeeeeee" !
How we met.
