It was a dreary Saturday in late spring during COVID when a group of friends—some close, some barely acquainted—boarded a shuttle bus bound for the wineries to celebrate a shared friend’s birthday and graduation. Among them, Dylan struck up a conversation with Jessica, pouring her a glass of wine as they talked about the moon, hockey, and laughed together—while Jessica wiped cake off his white shoes. Without much thought, they exchanged numbers. The very next day, Dylan texted Jessica to make plans to see each other again. From that moment on, their connection grew into something beautiful—unplanned, unexpected, and perfectly right.
