We met on February 2, 2018—purely by chance. Sylvia almost stayed in that night but changed her plans at the last minute to go out with a friend. Alfred rarely went anywhere more than two miles from home, yet that night we both ended up at Onyx Lounge. Our memories of the details differ, but within 20 minutes—and after Alfred’s smooth offer to buy Sylvia a drink—she was smitten, and our love story began.
