Our Story

15 years ago, during the school year opening, these two met. Two teenagers from very different worlds.

Childhood Memories

She came from a family that valued tradition, growing up in a quiet home filled with warmth but strict discipline. Raised by her grandparents, she had to move to the metro to join her parents and start her early schooling. The only girl among the siblings, she grew up playing wrestling and play fights where crying is not allowed. She grew up as tough kid with a love-hate relationship with traditions.

He, on the other hand, was raised in a bustling household, where ambitions were always encouraged. A responsible and loving firstborn of a tight knit family where everyone should eat at the dining table, TOGETHER—no questions asked.

Opposites Attract

She hates being questioned, he loves to be nosy. She enjoys waking up early in the morning… he sleeps in the morning. She is cautious, him, spontaneous. Where she preferred quiet corners, he loved loud crowds. But in each other, they found balance, patience, and an understanding that went deeper than words.

They learned to compromise: he taught her to embrace adventure, while she reminded him of the beauty in stillness. Their differences, instead of pulling them apart, became the bridge that brought them closer.

Growing Together

Years passed, and high school faded into memory. But their love endured, growing stronger through every change, challenge, and triumph. They held on to each other, building a world where two different backgrounds blended into one story — a story of commitment, respect, and unending love.

As they stand hand in hand, ready to face the future together, they know that their journey was never perfect — but it was always theirs. A love that began with teenage glances and grew into a bond unbreakable by time. A love that promises to keep learning, compromising, and growing, for all the years to come.
