The tale of Justin and Kassandra began on a sunny Wednesday afternoon in Tampa, Florida where two ends of the world unexpectedly met in a gym. Justin, always late to his ER shift, made an attempt to get there early when he was abruptly stopped by a friendly girl named Ana and her mysterious friend who wore a navy blue hat shielding her eyes, with cherry red lipstick that caught his eyes. The two girls from Guam, wanted to confirm if Justin was man who they labeled as “The guy with the cat,” who they stumbled onto via Instagram. As he confirmed their query, they exchanged greetings in laughter as well social medias to eventually go about their day. Later that evening, as Justin cared for numerous patients in the ER, he could not shake the thought of the cherry-lip-girl named Kase. Little did he know, she felt the same way about him…

After getting to know one another, Justin and Kase began to grow closer. They realized they shared many values and interests to even birthdays three days apart! The two meshed so well together they both could not believe it. A month went by as the two seemed inseparable, hanging out every waking day where Kase began to think about their next move. It was a warm evening as the two were at Justin's apartment, preparing to cook dinner when she asked him, "So what are we?" As she stared into his eyes with concern, he knew he needed to make their situation-ship, a true relationship. Now, you may be wondering why he took so long until he made it official. The two recently departed relationships prior to their initial meeting where Justin believed that a strong relationship was built on true friendship; to not rush into something that could potentially last forever. With all this rushing his mind while staring back into her concerned eyes -- he asked: "Will you be my girlfriend?"

Justin, who knew Kase held his heart wanted her to know that she was his everything. In order for him to show his true affection, he knew he had to “pop the question.” While aboard the Carnival Paradise cruising to Cozumel, this granted the perfect opportunity to potentially find a ring and propose to the love of his life. As he released the reigns to GOD to navigate this important decision, he was able to find the perfect diamond in Honduras, whilst, constructing the ideal ring fitted for his queen. Back aboard the ship, the time came to organize this monumental moment. With the help of the cruise staff, Justin knew Kase despised attention, yet he wanted this to be a huge event in front of hundreds of people. Coincidently, there was a party on the deck planned later that evening where he decided to be the perfect opportunity. As the stars gleamed over the vessel idling the Atlantic Ocean, the Cruise Director, LeiLei, asked the audience: “Who out here is in love?” She spotted Justin amongst the crowd asking him who he was here with? Acknowledging his parents, Justin proceeded to mention he was traveling with his girlfriend Kassandra. As all eyes turned to her, she felt her heart begin to race knowing that Justin loved the limelight. LeiLei, asked Kassandra to come to the center stage. As she walked hesitantly in front of the crowd, Justin was handed the mic; Kase had no idea the next moment would change her life. Justin proceeded to “hype the crowd,” with Kassandra in sight, he confidently gazed into her eyes and spoke about joy that the two shared in their time together. Reaching into his blazer pocket while kneeling down, the crowd began to gasp witnessing this unforgettable moment in time. With her hand over her mouth she stared at him with complete disbelief. With absolute silence from the mass, she heard his voice... “Kassandra, do you want paradise to be everlasting with me…?"
