"Maybe, I won't go," I thought, "I could call Paige and tell her that I can't come." But even as I was thinking it, I knew that I couldn't back out. There were going to be three guys and three girls there. It would be weird for everybody if I ditched and put things out of balance.
So, I went. I was late, but I went. And of course, it was a little awkward because these situations always are, but that's where Kedar and I met.
It's amusing to me now that it happened to be Canada Day: he served his mission in Canada, I had I roommate from Canada. We were the only two there who knew the Canadian National Anthem, so we sang it together. I made a rose for him out of a napkin. And after dinner and the dishes and after everybody else had left, he walked me to my car...

and that's how it all started...

It's funny how it seems like yesterday and forever ago all at the same time.
Oh, I love your story!
