He met Serena once at his college graduation and ever since then he found himself charmed by her angelic beauty. He couldn't believe that there was such a dazzling creature walking upon this earth. She had the most slender waist but all her womanly features stood out, her breasts were full and ripe like over lemons, her hips and buttocks could only be described as rounded and large, each of them the size of a basketball. She had white skin as pale as milk, dashing blue eyes, soft silk blond hair, red lips and the most beautiful smile.

"What is it mother" she said to her mother, pearing into her eyes.
Her mother looked up at the ceiling and exhaled with a smile on her face "Serena, darling! I have the most wonderful news!" She said.
Serena stared at her in confusion but said nothing.
"My darling, Yu just worn the lottery in form of a husband, Lorenzo Faroe wants to marry you" her mother said with a smile as though expecting a jolt of joy from Serena but Serena went quiet and stared blankly in thought.
"Lorenzo? The popular lawyer" she equired.
"Yes, yes, yes my darling" her mother said holding Serena's hands tight and squeezing them as though holding on to life.
