Our love story begins on a gloomy Saturday evening in January. January 27th, 2024 to be exact, when Desirae walked into Hite in K-Town with her friends Chris, Jeff, TeAta & Griff in tow. Our mutual friend, Chris Kim, noticed his friend from across the room and said hello....giving Desirae the opportunity to look that direction. It was then she noticed the man her friend was saying hi to. A man who she explains to this day, caught her eye because he took up space (in the most confident way). He had his arms out hanging on each chair next to him, with his cap low and casual style. It was a vibe too hard to ignore. He would say, it was her smile, that caught his attention. After Desirae left with her friends minus one Chris Kim, James would exclaim his interest fully confident, full of liquid courage and fueled by their mutual friend. Alas days later, Desirae had not received any indication of interest. The passion filled Latina took matters into her own hand - she reached out to their mutual friend who organized a group dinner date on February 1st. Liquid courage has it's expiration date, I guess :P. The spark was ignited. They split from the group after dinner and went to Bar Eighty-Two to play arcade games. Where even on the first date, one James Lee would not let one Desirae Aguirre win a SINGLE game. And there it began the competition for love, adventures and the rest of our lives.
