My biggest dream was to always go to Africa
0:04
I booked the flights to Benin Republic and after two weeks I found out that I got pregnant
0:11
In two years she will be a single mother. Black men hate weave on black women
0:17
but we let white women parade in black aesthetics, black hair and black accents
0:22
I didn't notice that my accent changed. My accent turned Nigerian when we fell in love
0:27
Who was going to tell her? Tell me what. My name is Sarah and this is my partner, Siprine
0:34
In 2021, I saw this beautiful lady on the story post of an artist in Nigeria, Olamide
0:41
She was vibing to the song with her then boyfriend. I saw she loved horses and I was like, ah, this is really my person
0:50
Then I saw his page with dancing and dancing to Afro beats
0:55
I think in 2022, we started to keep more contacts because then she was not in a relationship anymore
1:02
And my biggest dream was to always go to Africa. So many countries in Africa
1:11
I booked the flights to Benin Republic. And I think from the first day that we met, we were just together
1:20
We never said, are we together now? At the beginning, of course, when I went, I did not tell my family, actually, that I went to Africa
1:30
I just traveled alone. And I only told my mom, like, five days ago
1:34
I said, Mom, I'm actually going to Africa. What? You're going to Africa? I said, yeah
1:39
I did not tell anybody because I knew that people would come and say, Ah, Sarah, I don't think you should go
1:44
It is too dangerous. It is too this. And I was like, no, I just want to do what I want to do
1:52
This is a dish I ate for the first time in Benin called Banga Soup This is the palm cream We have already cooked meat ingredients for it Bunga spice It very big Okay show us the dish
2:09
Ah! Damn you! You eat all the food before it's finished. I'm always the psycho and then she's
2:21
After we met, I actually went back home and after two weeks I found out that I got pregnant
2:27
It was not planned, it was not intentional. And we said, okay, but we are sure that we want to keep the baby
2:34
And we said, okay, if that's meant to be, it will be
2:41
But he could not be with us while I gave birth, because they didn't allow him to come
2:46
The visa took too much time and I had to give birth alone
2:51
Yeah, I had to see everything on the video card. Yeah. It was very, very emotional
2:57
But now you're here. Yeah. Let me just... One minute now. One minute. No
3:08
She doesn't like me testing whenever she's working. It's not finished. We met after one year again
3:15
After one year. I flew with our newborn baby, four months old. I flew alone to Africa, to Benin
3:21
And we met us then again. I actually met our child only the second time I'm meeting Sarah
3:30
and me not seeing him in real life till it got to four months
3:34
it was something I never thought I knew I wanted to be a father someday
3:40
but I never thought that was how everything was gonna come out or pan out
3:44
but yeah and since then she's been visiting till we could actually reunite in Germany
3:50
My dad and wife made us a nice Nigerian dish. I can't wait to start eating
4:00
While learning to make Banga soup online I also learned and picked up some pidgin and Yoruba words and somehow my accent also turned Nigerian It just happened
4:14
Follow me, baby. Good. So let's eat. Okay. I've not tasted before. Mmm
4:21
So sweet. Our TikTok page started growing. It was there that we got a lot of judgment
4:30
judgment like in two years she will be a single mother. I'm with her because of the German passport
4:39
They said don't trust African men. See this one, please don't come back to Europe
4:47
Disgusting. Oh wow. Who is gonna tell her? Tell me what. somebody said african men are gay and chitras trust me i know for real
5:01
single mother incoming i like men as non-gold diggers am i digging gold
5:11
oh somebody said black men hate weave on black women but will let white women parade in black
5:20
aesthetics, black hair and black accent and you have the nigerian accent
5:25
She should keep crying. I like the judgment because it makes us viral
5:33
Oh gentlemen. We're about to show you some African attires and Greek
5:40
traditional attires. This amazing Ankara material, the western part of Nigeria. We are the Yorubas
5:50
I'm a Yoruba boy. And we get Ankara for events like weddings
5:56
naming ceremony. I think I speak Nigerian English for like since 2019 now
6:03
So six years. She's a prof. I'm somebody when I speak, I can adapt to the language then Or when I speak Greek I adapt to Greek When I speak German I adapt to German She picks up the accents everywhere she goes And this is my Greek traditional dress
6:18
Can you hold this? It's very heavy. In Greece, each area has their own kind of dresses
6:26
their own language, their own dances. So this dress is now coming from the area Pontos in Greece
6:33
Shout out to the Greek family, man. I didn't notice that my accent changed until one day I was speaking and then my friends came and said
6:42
Sarah, what are you speaking? I cannot even really understand you. Are you speaking English
6:47
I said, yeah, I think it's Nigerian English. It is heavy because this was usually for the people that were a bit richer
6:56
They would wear this on their head like this. But now we wait for dancing, our Greek traditional dances
7:04
What I love about Sarah is determination to get things done
7:20
And I think as a man, you need a woman who is driven
7:26
I love that she has a very beautiful eyes. It's amazing. Three years of long distance and finally, we are here
7:38
What I love most about Cyprien is he's passionate about wanting to have a family
7:43
and passionate about wanting a good life. And for those judging our relationship
7:49
I pray you find healing. Keep on. We are here. Hopefully you find healing
