In 2016, Aastha was working at Jazzman's Cafe, a popular cafe at Binghamton University, as a cashier. Her main responsibilities included providing hot water and handling the cash register. Anthony was a regular at Jazzman's Café, and each time he visited, he would only order hot water (which was free) for his tea (which he never bought). This often annoyed Aastha, as she had to step away from her phone to fulfill his request. One day, Anthony ordered a sausage, egg, and cheese. Aastha took his order and instructed her colleague to put it in the oven. When it was ready, her colleague asked whose order it was. Aastha pointed directly at Anthony, finger inches away from his face and announcing "That guy!", causing everyone to burst into laughter. Aastha felt embarrassed, while Anthony couldn't stop laughing either. After he left, Aastha confided in her colleague, saying, "Oh my God, that boy was so cute. Why am I like this? I'm going to die alone." Later that evening, Anthony met the same colleague and mentioned how he found Aastha to be very cute, to which she replied, "Oh my God, she thought you were cute too." She gave Anthony Aastha's number, and on November 29th, 2016, he texted her for the first time. They started hanging out, but soon after, Aastha left to Dubai for her winter vacation. On December 25th, 2016, while Aastha and Anthony were chatting on Snapchat, Aastha's family was teasing her about not having a boyfriend. Aastha mentioned this to Anthony, who seized the moment and asked her out. The rest is history. Together for eight years, with one fur baby, another one on the way, and countless beautiful memories. They are now looking forward to a wonderful wedding with their favorite people in the world. 💖
