As cliché as it sounds, we met in our second-year college chemistry class 8 years ago in Mumbai. I would always sit in the last row by the window behind two of our friends. I was reading a Game of Thrones book at the time, and that was the perfect conversation starter for Anmol. So one fine day in June 2015, Anmol walked over to my bench and asked to sit next to me. The rest, as they say, is history!

I planned to do it over a fall weekend trip to Marlboro, New York. The ring in my pocket weighed me down as I looked for the right moment on our hike through the woods by the glass house. Finally, at sunset in a beautiful winery perched on a hill, I got on one knee and asked her to marry me!
