Began in 3rd grade, when we first met and quickly became good friends. By 5th grade, life pulled us in different directions, and we drifted apart. Years later, fate surprised me when we crossed paths again at a new school. I was shocked to see Ernesto there, but slowly, just like before, our friendship rekindled and grew stronger. On September 24, 2016, everything changed when he confessed his love for me. That moment became the foundation of our journey together. Years of love, laughter, and growth later, on March 12, 2025, he proposed—and I said yes.
