In the dull hybrid learning, winter months of 2021, after 2 years apart, Jay responded to a post on Mekena's Snapchat story which began the rekindled flame of their love. She had pointed out her love for Baja Blast Freeze's, no matter the temperature, which he would then begin delivering almost nightly after he was off work. Mekena began waiting the "check your door" messages.

February rolls around, and he delivered 42 individually signed Valentine's cards, with flowers, candies and of course, a Baja Blast Freeze. She was adamant that he was just a guy best friend, and maybe that was the case, until they began hanging out again. She realized that their connection was undeniable and in March, he made it official for the second time.

Years pass, Jay starts a new job, they move into an apartment together, Mekena transitions to a new role in her job, later graduates with her education degree and begins teaching. In September 2023, Jay popped the question, and here we are today, approaching our wedding, preparing for our the rest of our lives together, ready to celebrate with you all.
