The days go back to the good ole times in Footlocker, when Kassandra was a Store Manager for Kid's Footlocker and I was an Assistant Manager for Footlocker. They would come over for their nightly drops, which would always turn into continuous conversations and joking around. The connection was there, but it was more so as a great friendship that would last a lifetime. One day she was given the opportunity to be the manager at store I worked in and we were so excited. That is when our friendship became even closer, Kassandra would always give me life advice and always tried to guide me in the direction of my best interest and I would do the same for her. I would always lookout for her and make sure that she was happy and as I would say "WELL FED!". Unfortunately, after a few months of working together I was promoted into a new store and she moved to Florida so it made it a little harder to keep in touch. We had lost touch for about a year with no communication at all, but that didn't stop from picking up where we left off. After a year of not talking I reached out to Kassandra through Facetime just to check in and see how she was doing. We planned a visit for her to come back to New Jersey to come visit and it went better than we ever expected. We picked up right where we left off but it was just more then a friendship it felt this time. You could feel love and admiration between us which you would say our friendship led to a love story. We now have two beautiful kids and a family of our own. We can't wait to see what else life has in store for us on this journey we call our own.
