It all started in high school—two math classes, countless unsaid words, and one fateful seating chart. We’d seen each other before, shared the same room, but it wasn’t until we were assigned seats next to each other that the story of us truly began. She was the typical high school girl, always surrounded by her group of friends. He was the quiet, funny type—the kind of guy who didn’t need to say much to leave an impression. Words were few at first, but he found the sweetest way to break the ice. Instead of talking, he’d type out cheesy jokes and sweet messages on the school calculator, sliding it over with a shy smile. That smile was impossible to resist. Passing in the halls became a silent tradition—his arms opening wide for a hug, never needing to say a word. When it came time to ask for a number, he sent a mutual friend, Aliviana, to do the asking. But that move didn’t work quite as planned because she wasn't going to make it that easy. The message back? “If he wants it, he’ll have to ask himself.” (Spoiler: He did.) From that moment on, the texts never stopped. At school assemblies, friends would nudge her closer to him—something that quickly became second nature. After the first kiss, he looked over with the biggest grin and said, “Hope you know you’re my girlfriend now.” That was it. Stuck like glue ever since. Ten years, a million memories, and a whole lot of laughter later, he proposed. Now, the next chapter is ready to be written & shared with the people we love most. Thank you for being part of the story. Can’t wait to celebrate together!
