Two become one

It was 5 a.m. at the gym when we started talking. He asked if I’d like to go watch a sunrise by the lake with him. I wasn’t planning to go, but a friend encouraged me. During the drive, we had genuine conversations, and we haven’t gone a single day without talking since. There was an undeniable connection, a spark—yet with no intention of a relationship. It felt more like a spiritual and emotional bond than a physical one, as if I were reconnecting with a long-lost part of myself. When asked how I knew he was the one, I realized I didn’t know. We simply chose to love each other every day, through every moment, thick and thin.
