We met at the McDonaldʻs across the street from Makanaʻs high school and down the street from Sergeiʻs high school. Sergei just so happened knew a friend of Makanaʻs and had the courage to talk to her in his very own way. Sergei grabbed Makanaʻs phone out from her pocket and asked if he could get her number. Makana got Sergeiʻs number and he ran off to go back to school for cross country practice. The rest became history and a Sacred Hearts girl met a Saint Louis boy.
