Tony had asked Melissa out in middle school and she immediately regretted saying no. They were both young and barely knew each other. However, Tony knew he was in love with Melissa in middle school and constantly thought about her. Melissa left vista after freshman year of RBV and did not return until junior year. Senior year Melissa was sat next to Tony after she begged her teacher not to sit next to him because she was so embarrassed she rejected him and had a crush on him. Melissa ended up sitting behind Tony and that is when they began talking and learning more about one another. They experienced their prom, grad night, and graduation together. After high school, tony had reached out to Melissa and even visited her at work (her entire shift) just catching up and laughing together. From that moment they were inseparable. Melissa and Tony now have a 4 year old daughter named Savita and a 6 year old named AZUL.
