We met in February of 2020 through a dating site called bumble. We talked nonstop through texting, FaceTime, phone calls, you name it. We had planned to meet up several times but I was so busy finishing my masters that it didn’t work out. And then, just like that, hello COVID pandemic. I was also extremely sick during this time.

the end of march approached and I finally agreed to drive out to Chicago since Tirth didn’t have a car. The highways were dead ones.

Ganesh- remover of obstacles, please guide us smoothly during this time and after.
