Once upon a time there lived a woman by the name of Marchelle Simmons. She was a parole officer by day and a mother by night. Now Marchelle had seven kids five boys and two girls who were all spread throughout the age line. Marchelle was taught that kids would be kids no matter how old they were and she respected that. Marchelle had a middle son by the name of Davion Simmons who adored a girl by the name of Devona Sanders. The only thing was that they were from two different places and it would be difficult to bring their families together. Even though she knew of Devona she never once said a word of it to her son. Marchelle waited until he came to her to ask for advice that would somehow give himself away.
Now Devona on the other hand had it even worse because her father was a very overprotective person but her mother was calm and caring. Devona knew that she would have to eventually tell her parents about the guy that she was in a relationship with and she knew that this would not be such an easy task. Davion had offered to go with her but Devona had declined all of his offers. Devona had thought since she had always been "Daddy's Little Girl" that her father would be understanding of the situation at hand.On the other hand Davion had told his family and they were ready to meet the girl that he had been spending all of his time with. While Davion's family was open to the idea that he had found love; Devona's father was not at all that happy about the idea of a hoodlum dating his daughter.
Devona went one day after school to meet Davion's family and they welcomed her with open arms. Devona also had to tell Davion that her parents did not want her to see him any more. Davion was willing to go to her father and ask could he date Devona after her father had told her no and to not see him anymore. So Devona delayed this until there was no other way but to go to her father and tell him but this time she would not do it alone. Davion was to come around nine o'clock to ask her father this time. Devona also wanted her parents to see how happy she was with her new found love. Devona knew that once her parents saw her happy that they would not tell her that she had to end the relationship. Devona knew that they would accept him and not give him a hard time when Devona was not around.
Devona's parents talked to Davion for hours and then they asked Devona to leave the room. She was scared of what they might say to him but all she could do now was pray. After another hour had passed her father came to her in the living room and gave her his blessing. Davion had not only asked to date his daughter but to marry her in three months. All Devona could do at that moment and time was cry because she knew that it was his plan in the beginning to be her knight in shining armor. Davion had not only been a best friend to her during the time of her talking to her parents her had also kept his role as her boyfriend and maintained to honor whatever had been said in that room for that hour. That is something till this day that Davion will never tell her; he just says go and ask your parents. Before I can do that he says if they wanted you to know they would have not asked you to leave the room.
