It all started with a bowl of pho. William messaged Lauren after she posted a picture of her pho and said it looked really good. Lauren replied with an old Southern joke: “Yeah, the cook put her foot in it.” William didn’t get the joke, and the conversation faded out. A few days later, they started talking again—and this time, it just clicked. William kept Lauren laughing and smiling for weeks, and before long they decided to meet in person. When they finally met, they both felt it: this was something special, and they never wanted to be apart. William is Lauren’s knight in shining armor. Lauren is William’s saving grace. "Every love story is beautiful, but ours is our favorite." — William & Lauren
