We met in Chico through a mutual friend. From the first encounter we both knew there was something special there. We became friends first, but our friendship was short lived because we fell in love and there was no way of hiding it. Two people who found each other by chance and decided on forever.
The year 2020 was one to remember. It was a huge year for both of us. I was graduating Nursing School and Brian was finishing up his Bachelors Degree Program at Chico State. We planned a trip to Paris in June to celebrate our achievements. However, due to unfortunate events we had to cancel it. On the night of the proposal, I was studying for my State Boards and Brian told me to stay in my bedroom because he wanted to do something nice for me around the house. So I sat in my bedroom studying and wasn’t allowed to come out. Then Brian told me to get ready because he was going to take me out to a nice dinner. As we were leaving, he asked me to help him get something from the backyard to put in the car. I thought that was weird, but I followed him anyways, and there it was! A Magical Scene; twinkling lights, thousands of rose pedals on the ground, and a projected scene of the Eiffel Tower. He got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. We were robbed of our Paris trip, so he decided to bring Paris to me. And of course I said Yes! Afterwords, we went to In-N-Out for our romantic dinner.
