Turner and Azrene met in a small coffee shop nestled on the corner of the Country Club Plaza, where they talked for hours getting to know each other. Azrene, who was there to study, did not get any studying done. She was lost in conversation with a man who captivated her with his intelligence and well-spoken demeanor. It was a big day for Kansas City as the Chiefs were playing the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship. After coffee, they decided to walk to a store close by to get some Chiefs gear for the big game. When they held hands for the first time while walking, they felt as if their time in the coffee shop was all they needed to feel comfortable with each other. From then on, they found themselves longing for each other's company, and to this day, that has not changed.
