We first met by pure chance at a carnival, after connecting online but never planning to run into each other. Both of us were there with friends, wandering through the lights and laughter, when we ended up in the same spot. Nervous energy made hiding feel like the safest option until a little nudge from a friend led to a photo being taken just a few feet away of each other. A name was called, a smile was shared, and in that perfectly unexpected moment, our first in-person meeting happened. From that magical day forward, every adventure, laugh, and memory has been shared together, and we’ve been inseparable ever since.
