Rico was in the audience of a fashion show on campus at WSSU, when he noticed Charlie sashay across the stage. He tapped his friend Corey on the shoulder and said "Yo! Who is that!?." The two ended up dating for about a year, but cordially parted ways. Rico eventually moved to Atlanta, while Charlie remained in North Carolina. Eleven years later during a visit back home, Rico reached out to Charlie & asked if she wanted to go out for drinks and live music. (He knew she'd never turn down an opportunity to enjoy live music!). They were very different people this time around. Eleven years more mature, wiser & experienced, but the spark was still there! They decided to take things slow and ultimately decided to give each other another try. Thank God for second chances!
