Aarika and Kenny both downloaded Hinge for different reasons. Kenny was tired of dating and ready to settle down. Aarika's family dog was very ill and ended up passing away so she downloaded Hinge as a way of making her mom laugh and cheering her up. She had no intention of meeting the love of her life as she had just fallen out of a long term relationship. Aarika started up a conversation due to a line on Kenny's Hinge that said "Tacobell is the best drunk food prove me wrong" If you know Aarika, her favorite fast food is Tacobell. Her first line to him was "Hi, Tacobell is the best anytime food" and after that it was over for both of them. They both deleted the app on their first date and have been inseparable since. When you know, you know!
