MattMatt & Thao

How The Two Found Each Other

Once upon a time, there was a man named Matthew who moved to Boston for his new job. He was excited to explore the city, but he didn't have any family or friends in Boston to hang out with. One sunny day, while taking a break from work, Matthew decided to visit the Boston Public Gardens. As he was strolling through the lush green grounds, admiring the stunning blooms and the tranquil pond, he spotted a Tufts Medical Center id on the ground. He picked it up and looked up to find a girl dressed in a medical scrub sitting on a bench lost in thought staring towards the ducks in the pond. Thinking he found the owner of the id, Matt approached her and struck up a conversation. Her name was Thao. She also recently moved to Boston. She worked at Tufts Medical Center nearby and had come to the gardens to relax after her shift ended. As they talked, Matt was struck by how easy it was to talk to Thao. They bonded over their shared love of food and how their life has changed after moving to Boston. They spent the whole day together, exploring the gardens, and watching dogs run around the Commons. The two later adopted a beautiful goofy golden retriever of their own. Matt knew that he had met someone special. From the moment they found each other, Matt and Thao were inseparable. On 11/11, Matt proposed to Thao in the same garden they met.
