We met at a mobile money booth

Just after a had three years at Makerere University, Becky stormed the streets of Kampala for a job. She graduated in 2009 and failed to get one stable job that would change her life. She went to orange offices and asked to work as a mobile Agent.

He frequented the place for transactions until the two became friends. They exchanged numbers and started chatting frequently.

As time went one, Edward went back to the UK but maintained the communication. Becky says, she loved the way thing how the communication went by. She herself telling him all about her and slowly fell in love with him.

I told him about my love after one year of flirting

It took Becky one good year to express her feelings for Edward. Becky adds that she was shocked Edward had fallen in love with her the very first time he came to withdraw money. They got happy of their matching feelings.

Edward was then forced to fly back in the country to cement their love. When touched on the airport, Becky had booked a hotel room at Serena where the two spent one full week without moving outside. By the time they moved out, they had agreed to be man and wife.

Becky left the mobile money job and settled home as a stay home girlfriend. Edward had disclosed to her that he has a family house in Luzira that is occupied by a shamba boy. He requested her to move in with him as they start a new life.

My life changed drastically when i met Edward

Tearful Becky acknowledges the change of life. Edward left her with all the responsibilities to handle the family house in Luzira. Being a big house, she was left with huge sums of money to take care of the house. Becky’s search for low jobs ended from there.

She started living a good life. She even got the confidence of re uniting with old friends who later connected her to second chance. She started acting. One year back, Edward came back in the country and promised marriage.

Wedding full of tears of Joy

Having been brought up from a humble background, Becky had dreams. Dreams of achieving the highest educational level. After senior six she became stuck as her father wouldn't handle tuition. She almost thought of marriage.

Becky approached NGOs until she landed on one that paid for her tuition. Her dreams started being alive again. On her wedding close family, members who knew what Becky went through couldn't hide their joy for their daughter. They only had to cry.
