Some people believe there is love at first sight... Some fall head over heels, and some are realist and think they have their love expectations all figured out. We want to give you the lovey dovey mushy stuff but truly this all began on a hot summer fling at a reggae festival in Sacramento California. We both had things going on as individuals', had secret lives we dared not to bring amongst each other. One, living at the opposite side of the world, while the other in the town we both later fell in love with over the years. Though living another life, we eagerly were so passionate about each other's; mind, body, and soul. Two young people trying to figure it out in this world. God knew we were meant to be with each other. Fate led us to this fling, but as you all know, all flings comes to an end. In this case, it was a break destined for us to meet once more in 2014. Here is our love story...

It was an island reggae festival on the river of Sacramento. I was 25 years old performing live in front of 100’s of people. There, pulling up in a 12 seater van, I remembered lying down in the backseat trying to catch some rest before the big show. As we finally arrived, still lying down in the back seat, I heard the boys shouting out, “Whoa guys! Check out that hot chick standing right next to Syz!" Syz, who we all may know him as my soon to be brother-in-law Sophan. He was our videographer filming the event for tonight's show. Everybody started loading off one by one. As we all gathered backstage in preparation of the show, Syz introduced me to my soon to be forever. Words were exchanged cordially, but I kept a shy distance for it appeared to me that all my boys had a sudden interest in her. You see guys… because of her beauty, it attracted many of my close friends and because of that… I proceeded her no further. Towards the end of the show, I saw her again. Backstage with my good friend Ali. I soon discovered they have exchanged numbers. I remembered how happy I was for him. 2 weeks has passed, and I got a phone call from Ali. He invited me to his little shindig happening at his house. Tina was also invited to the same party, and Ali asked if I was able to pick her up along the way. Immediately, I said yes, eager to be his wing man, and pick up the girl I thought was to be his. That is when I acquired her number. I sent her a text requesting her address. Soon enough we both were in my car traveling to my friends house. As the night progressed, I found Tina spending more time with me than with my friend. It was evident she had no interest in getting to know him and for that it was quite awkward. Later that evening, Ali approached me and said it was all good. I have gotten the green light. We continued our relation with flirting and more. But... to every love story, comes a spiraling twist, and things were just about to get interesting real soon.

That summer in 2012 almost felt like a dream. We both had unfinished businesses, but the memory of him, never faded away. We took some time apart to work on ourselves. I had my life on the opposite side of the world, while he had his in California. It was the year of 2014, and I made my way back to the mainland. There, I became a car saleswoman, in the heart of Fairfield. The car business industry was booming, and I was at the top of my game. The countless bottle services that money can buy: extravagant, glamorous trips here and there. The shoes, the clothes, the closet. The many beautiful experiences a single girl could ask for. And then the most wonderful thing appeared to me on facebook messenger… It was him. I felt that rush coursing through my veins like it was back in 2012. The memory was resurfacing. We instantly reconnected, but with our careers, moving at a fast pace... we couldn't let each other see face to face just yet. At last, there was a buzz going on in the radio. An Island concert held at a hotel in Sacramento. I arrived and bought two tickets for me and one of my best friend's Charlie. And at a moment's notice, I see him there, standing across the stage. Our eyes finally met once more, glistening through the stage lights. It was like looking at him for the first time. My mind scrambling about, through a burning hot desire of affection. Lusting through the memories of that summer in 2012. Seeing him for the first time in a long time, was like laying my eyes into something so desirable, that I could almost feel my heart stopping. All I could hear, was the sound of my breath reputation. Though the music was playing; and the crowd was going wild, I stood there in utter silence, as I watched him perform up on stage. We began dating on Aug 12, 2015. We consummated our relationship further more by moving in together. This was yet another adventurous chapter awaiting for us both.

We took a trip to Honolulu, Hawaii. It was a spectacular adventure for us. On the day of the proposal, we went out for some good food. We had crepes for breakfast and strolled through the swap meet to buy some souvenirs. It was such a beautiful day, but as the day slowly fell into sundown, I was getting exhausted. When we arrived back home that late afternoon, we were asked to do a photo shoot from our good friend Glory. I was so exhausted from the day's activities, I remembered saying "All I want to do was stay in." My mali and pari kept on insisting that we do this photo shoot. It took a lot of convincing out of me. I eventually gave in. So I got re-dolled up; put on this floral dress, and headed out the door. They took us to this exquisite botanical garden. When we arrived, we did several shoots. They were constantly directing different backgrounds till we finally stood in front of these majestic mountains. And before you know it, he got down on one knee and asked those beautiful words. I cried at last. I have found my forever.
