A New York Love Story
We met at Webster Hall, both invited by the same mutual friend, Anastasia Lindsay. The next day Ronald was heading to Iraq for his first deployment and Auressa went about her busy life working part-time while in school and parenting full-time. The next year, they reconnect at Ana's going away party. Some time after, Facebooks were exchanged along with messages from Ronald to Auressa through Ana. Finally, Auressa shoots her shot and invites Ronald to see Lupe Fiasco with her, again, at Webster Hall. Ronald agrees and unfortunately doesn't get in but a second date was scheduled (at Shake Shack) and the rest is history!
