We first met through an online platform, what started as casual conversations, filled with curiosity and shared interests, gradually transformed into something more meaningful. After days and months of talking we decided to watch the UP Fair. There, in the heart of it all, Ben&Ben took the stage, filling the air with their beautiful music. It was during their performance of "Maybe the Night" that the moment felt right. As the crowd swayed and sang along, Laila, said yes — not just to the rhythm of the music but to something deeper: the start of our relationship.

Though our exam dates were a year apart, our journeys were intertwined. When Laila passed her board exams, Jay was there to share in her success just as she had been there for him a year earlier. Our shared accomplishments were more than just individual victories; they were milestones in our partnership built on love, trust, and a deep understanding of each other’s dreams and aspirations.

For our second anniversary, we decided to take a break from our busy lives and escape to the tranquil shores of Crystal Beach in Zambales. It was our first beach trip!

In the breath taking paradise of Boracay, Jay knelt down on one knee and asked the biggest question.

Our first formal (lol) pawmily picture! In 2019, we decided to adopt our first fur baby- Richi. Two years later, we had Rylee. Richi and Rylee were more than just dogs—they became part of our little pawmily. They contributed to how responsible and committed we are not just as fur parents but as individuals.
