Circa May 2005 - The Characters
Boy - A 10th standard student in Coimbatore, who moves to Madurai for higher secondary schooling.
Girl - A 10th standard student in Chennai. No prizes for guessing where she moves for her higher secondary schooling!
May 2005 to June 2007 - The Beginning
As many would anticipate, they both ended up being classmates in their new school. Despite that, sadly, nothing interesting happened in this period of time (we know, they were such idiots back then!). They just looked at each other on random days and barely spoke.
June 2007 - The Actual Beginning
The girl moved back to Chennai and the boy moved back to Coimbatore for college. As with most couples of this generation, they started conversing with each other in the form on SMS'es and phone calls. Few days after that, they felt they were really close to each other. Few months after that, they realized they can't live without each other.
Few Months (or years) Later
The boy was on a late night train journey and as it was always, they were talking over phone (despite the annoying train noise). He felt something spontaneously and popped the question. It took a while for him to get an answer, but it was an answer that he rejoices till today!
P.S. The time frame of the above paragraph is omitted intentionally. ;-)
September 2011 - LGTM
The girl told about her life choice to her parents and the boy did the same to his parents. Both of them were genuinely happy instantaneously. No hesitation, No fuss, Pure happiness. It was then they realized how gifted they were to have such wonderful parents!
September 2012 - Its Official
The boy and the girl got engaged on September 2nd, 2012. It was a small but wonderful ceremony with family and friends.
December 2012 to March 2013 - The Present
We are writing this draft over a video chat (damn you geography!). We are really excited about the brand new phase of our lives that we are about to step on to. So please mark your calendars and try to be there on our special day, as your wishes would mean a whole world to us!
March 2013 and Beyond
We are undergoing our "Happily ever after" phase. :-)
P.S.: I didn't write this now. I am just copying this from my wedding website. Since that domain expired, I wanted this to live somewhere on the internet.
