How We Got Here
"Two sides of the same coin—except one of us definitely has a better memory."
"Coming soon..."
Na'asirah
Bride
"We’d been friends for years, but everything changed the first time we spoke on the phone after I moved away. From that day on, we were constantly on the phone until I clumsily dropped and broke my phone while treetop trekking in Vancouver.
A month of accidental silence later, the sheer excitement of finally fixing the phone and getting to talk to Na'asirah again made me realize I had fallen for her.
Weeks later on Thanksgiving, while giving thanks with friends for the people we hold closest, iI suddenly realized where I wanted to be. I left dinner, went home, and asked her to be my girlfriend.
She calmly replied, “What took you so long?” And she was right."
