With a pot full of mixed feelings, heavy hearts, a lot of expectations and dreams we landed in America. Life had its plans ready for us. The stars had aligned themselves for our first meeting at the University of South Florida. Our friendship grew as we started hanging out in the same circle of friends. Adventure is something we both are fond of. Group activities like camping trips gave us a chance to discover our fondness for the same kind of things. The biggest thing that brought us together was our simple and uncomplicated approach to life. Friendship, infact one of the best kinds of friendship, was the first milestone in this journey. Mixed doubles tournaments of badminton was another way of our compatibility check. Instances like these got us closer as friends. The comfort that we shared in being our true self in front of each other was as easy as A-B-C!

Congeniality, simplicity, comfort, understanding each other and being frank became the foundation of our love story.

Using Lysol instead of detergents in a washer were the signs of budding love.

After a lot of lakeside Starbucks trips, and hesitation to commit to something greater than friendship, we finally talked it out one day and we realized that we shared the same intentions.

We started dating only to realise that the decision we took was the best decision ever. As time passed we grew fonder for each other, and as others might call it falling deep in love.

The day finally came when Sree proposed with the things he loves: Cheesecake__!! From convincing a cop to let Sree park and propose in a place with a beautiful view, to having people cheering for both of us WHEN SHE SAID YES, it was a roller coaster of feelings.

Then Milo came into our life making us more responsible towards this relationship. After all this we still had the biggest milestone of our story to cross, convincing our families. Our families saw the bond and understanding we shared and being the awesome families they are we got the final green signal to our happily ever after. It’s been a happy and a wonderful life since then, and we hope it remains trhe same, touchwood, as both are families, through us, bond for life.
