Our story began at Water Street, where we worked together—he, the quiet and mysterious waiter, and me, the outgoing and friendly hostess. From the start, our personalities clashed in the best way. His subtle, "get-to-know-you" questions piqued my curiosity, but it was the warnings I got from friends about his charm that really drew me in. One evening, after a quick hangout and meeting his dog, I found the perfect excuse to invite myself back over—using Nikko as my ploy. What started off casual and friendly quickly turned into something more. Soon, we found ourselves hanging out more and more with our coworkers, but before long, it was just the two of us. His wit matched mine, and his quick humor had me laughing like never before. We became inseparable, we found something special in each other, and the rest, as they say, is history—our history, and we’re so excited to continue writing it together.
