Our Story

Some love stories take their time.

We first met over two decades ago while attending university — two curious, young souls navigating uni life. Our paths crossed, conversations sparked, and a quiet connection formed. But as life tends to do, it carried us in different directions, and we eventually lost touch.

22 years later, fate decided it wasn’t quite done with us.

One ordinary day, a message popped up — a note from him, casually mentioning that his soccer team was passing through near where she used to live. A simple, unexpected message... and everything changed.

That random moment turned into coffee, then long conversations, and then a feeling neither of us could shake — this was it. The timing was finally right, and the connection that started all those years ago came rushing back with a quiet kind of certainty.

Now, we’re inviting you to witness the next chapter of our journey.
With full hearts, we can’t wait to celebrate this love — the kind that waited patiently for the perfect time.
