Fireworks Sparked

July 3rd, 2014

If someone ever described the most magical date; it still wouldn't live up to what happened on this day. After a struggling few months in our lives, we ended up oweing each other a friendly beer to help soothe our hearts. Little did we know that this single event would change our lives forever. Following many days of scheduling conflicts, a day broke through. We happened to both have an evening available after work. July 3rd happened to be the date. We agreed on a close location to us. Unplanned, it was a festival-style event in Rosemont, IL. It was loud and there was a multitude of people. We agreed to try a bar where we bought each other a drink. First round on Ruben, second round on Estre. With our second drink in hand we ventured out into the crowd. There was a live band playing and we followed the music. We held hands as to not get separated by the crowd and went on to enjoy the fresh breeze and the good vibes. All the bad in the world disappeared and time seemed to pass by. Nothing could make this night feel better. We walked around some more exploring the area. Suddenly, everyone started gathering around the entrance. Ruben pulled Estre towards the crowd. "It would be amazing if they had fireworks tonight", she said. He smiled, as he had heard the band state earlier the fireworks would commence soon. Sparks flew into the air as we stood holding each other. We kissed and instantly knew there was more in the air than the eye could see. It could have been the music, the breeze, the fireworks, the vibe or simply someone putting something in our drinks to make us go mad. Whatever it was, it was stronger than both of us and we gave in. We gave in to a simple and pure love and there wasn't any going back...

For all the days along the way
