He talked to his Uber driver about life on the way to the Five Horseman pub about 20 minutes too early, something she would later find all-too-common. Luckily, two seats had just opened up on that fine November night at the Four Horses, and he tried not to look awkward as she walked in with a white sweater and cautious smile that he would come to love. They talked about travel, family, Boston and school, and he had no idea if it went well because he forgot to ask her if he could see her again before hopping in the Uber home from the Four Horsemen. *Sarita in the background: "It's the 'FIVE HORSES TAVERN' for goodness sake". Samson will continue to call it anything but. Even though it's his favorite tavern in the world. Because that's where he first met her.

Your physics teacher wasn't lying when they said you'd use it in real life! For birthday's and holiday's, Sarita writes Samson personalized cards relating their love to physics. She's gone through the full statistics of them meeting, the 'strong force' that holds together quarks, and a quick overview of string theory. She famously stated, "I like to think that no matter what dimension we're in, my string is still tangled with yours". Samson saved each of these cards in his safe knowing that one day he'd use them again. In Christopher Columbus Park in downtown Boston, Samson had the sneaky Ritika place 3 of his favorite cards on 3 park benches in the floral walkway, before placing a 4th physics card, written by Samson, on the final bench. That card had a dazzling ring on it and behind it was a small wooden box from Brilliant Earth. Samson read his physics card, about Neutrons (spelled incorrectly on the card), Hydrogen atoms, and unbreakable bonds, and got down on one knee. Victoria was there with her camera to catch the magic moment, and Ritika was there to drive off some unassuming instagrammers. Their efforts, combined with Samson convincing Sarita to put her hair down for the night, made for the perfect, once-in-a-lifetime moment. And she said YES.
