An odyssey from Odisha

They met back in 2013 through a mutual friend who told her that it would be nice that they got acquainted. After much hesitation she was introduced to a shy introvert. Knowing how shy he was and certain that he wouldn’t make the first move, his friends challenged him to call her. They hardly knew that the call would lead to the inception of a beautiful love story. Their first hello felt like an instant connection. From where her conversations were nonstop and he an always patient listener. Their first hello developed into a constant connection and a go-to friend in every situation. However they hadn’t met in person . Overtime their priorities grew together yet on separate paths. He on his MBBS journey and she on her IT journey. Yet they always found time for each other. Somewhere down the line they were sure to cross paths. On a certain occasion while playing truth or dare she was asked to message someone she loves. She instantly messaged him saying that she loves him . He on the other hand took her by surprise by saying that he was in love with her all the way along. Seven years later their long Distance relationship stood strong through lots of happiness, fights, surprises and sorrow yet the beauty of it all was that it was underlined in love. On her birthday that came once in 4 years on February 29, 2016 he arranged for a grand surprise and proposed to her. The moment felt surreal as it was the moment they’ve always dreamed of. It just goes to show how life has a way of dropping blessings even without one knowing it. Theirs was such a love story. Through tantrums and tolerance their love, understanding and support united them as one. Forever to stay as one happily married couple.
