The 28th of December 2017, we reconnected after couple of years. Our parents independently acted like cupids and planted the love bug hoping for the arrow to strike. Lucky for them

On a call one day, overwhelmed with all the different plans getting cancelled & the various uncertainties he broke down…and I let him.“2020 was supposed to be my year - I was supposed to travel…and I was”, he paused for a bit, “supposed to propose to you”,
“I had it all planned. I was supposed to fly to Thailand the last day of your bachelorette. My eyes popped. 👀 “I had booked the same AirBnb in Krabi that you had booked for your girls. A day before your check in, I had planned to set everything up. You would enter the Airbnb to see me right there - kneeling in front of the archway & right that moment the fireworks would start in the background - cause I know you love fireworks 🎇 - and your friends would be holding the Board ‘Will You Marry Me’ with PPC playing the 🎸!" He had kept this story from me for months now, never once narrated this ever since my trip got cancelled in April. While he narrated, I imagined it all. I was overjoyed, happy. This was the best surprise ever. Having my friends during my proposal was a dream come true - which I never thought was remotely feasible. Even though this never really happened, I wanted to capture this moment forever cause for me the effort & love behind this made it real in my mind. Thank you Vipin for going above & beyond to plan this little dream proposal for me.And “YES”! I know it is a privilege to have friendship like I do. Again & again it reminds me how blessed I am to have the people in this frame in my life. Thank you for the friendship, thank you for the love & thank you for planning this moment for me. ~ Krabi, Thailand April 16th 2020. Current status : The ring 💍 , the boy 👦 & the girl 👧 are in three different continents. So until the three co-locate, I have to wait for my actual surprise.
