We first met at a soccer tournament through a mutual friend. At the time, we never expected that simple moment would become the beginning of something meaningful—especially since Paw lived in Austin and our lives rarely crossed. Yet somehow, we kept running into each other at different events. In a slightly embarrassing twist, Po forgot my name three separate times, something I was disappointed about at first, but it eventually became our little inside joke. In 2021, we finally got each other contact information and we talked for a while before life took us in different directions. For a time, we lost touch. Then in 2023, we found our way back to talking again—and that’s when our story truly began.
