It all began in 2012, during their freshman year of high school. Fate sat them side by side in computer class. Gerald, the outgoing boy with a heart full of humor, and Anna, the quiet girl who couldn’t help but smile at his jokes. Day after day, Gerald made it his mission to make Anna laugh, and those moments quickly became the highlight of each other’s school day. In 2013, Gerald transferred to another school, and life gently pulled them in different directions. They lost touch, never quite knowing that the story between them wasn’t over—just paused. Years later, in March 2020, as the world stood still at the start of the pandemic, their paths crossed again online. What began as a casual reconnection turned into something more. With the world shut down, the first date took place over facetime. By that summer, as restrictions began to lift, they finally met in person. From that moment on, they were inseparable. Four years of laughter, love, adventures, and growth later, Gerald proposed on a beautiful beach on August 24, 2024—marking the beginning of the next chapter in their love story. They can’t wait to celebrate this journey with all of you.
