The Story of Christian and Stefanie

An Unlikely Union

To understand the story, one must first understand the character and nature of these two. Stefanie, a high school instructor specializing in teaching the youth of America on how to read better, write smoother, and understand literature at its core. Although she would have much rather been out on the beach enjoying the sun, or going for a nice hike, Stefanie spent most of her days commuting multiple hours to and from work, where she would give it her all as a teacher. Afterwards she would call her day over as a teacher and clock back in to come home and take care of her 6 year old daughter Melanie. Stefanie was dedicated to her grind and to being the best mother she could be for Melanie, and she did so with excellence, but not ease. Her day to day life would eventually call for a well deserved break from all the normalcies of teaching. Christian, a kind soul, who would often, at the time let the tides of life direct him in his journey and path of life. Christian was working as a bar back and an eventual bartender at his night club job. Christian had some huge setbacks in his life a few years prior that he was still feeling and was working hard towards correcting those set backs to become a better person at the end of it all. Along with his part time job as a bartender at Vybz, Christian like to spend his free time gaming with his friends in his home town. He would often commute on his days off to spend days with them playing his favorite game of all, Super Smash bros., as well as a few other board games. Those friendships mean a lot to him to still to this day. Thus, we begin. On one winter night, our beloved Stefanie found herself being called to action by her friends, to spend a Friday night out in town. Reluctant at first, she eventually agreed to the plans even though she didn't have much of an outfit prepared, as she had just finished teaching. Together her and her friends put together this simple cute all black outfit that was just perfect for the night. Meanwhile, on the flip side of things, Christian was getting ready for his evening shift at Vybz. Troubled by some news at the time that put in him in a rather negative mood, Christian put on one of iconic work beanies, and set off for work, albeit not in the best mood. Stefanie and company later arrived at Vybz on what was a fairly busy night, and because so, Christian was working hard with his head down ignoring most of everyone. Although he was uninterested in the crowd, Christian couldn't help but notice this beautiful girl keep glancing over at him. He thought to himself "How much longer am I going to ignore these mesmerizing eyes that keep staring? Christian finally took off his sad boy makeup and made the best decision of his life that night, to give a gorgeous, captivating, intelligent stranger his time of day. The two awkwardly flirted with each other in ways they could only understand, but it worked for them. They exchanged numbers and the night ended. Christian and Stefanie went on a hike together shortly after that where the pair really got to learn more from each other in a much different setting. Stefanie also slipped and fell on that hike, Talk about falling for someone! The two continued to date and eventually became boyfriend and girlfriend. 2 and a half years down the road, Christian proposed to Stefanie in the heart of Emerald Bay, in Lake Tahoe, where the two would have to kayak to a small island before Christian popped the question. Throughout the 3 years they have been together, Stefanie and Christian have experienced a wonderful, healthy, happy relationship. The two have gone through their own sets of struggles, hiccups, and hardships, but they always manage to choose each other, and work together to overcome those challenges. At the end of the day Stefanie and Christian could not be any happier to have made it this far and to begin their next chapter of life.
