We met at a college pool party—him with his easy smile, me pretending not to notice. What started as casual hangouts turned into late-night talks, shared takeout, and sleepy mornings. I started leaving things at his place, one drawer at a time, until it felt like home. Somewhere in the slow drift of days, we became us.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Fifteen years ago, we found a tiny 2-week-old kitten crying under our car. We brought him in, bottle-fed him, had him neutered, and gave him a home. He grew up alongside us—through moves, milestones, and quiet mornings. He’s still with us today, a beloved part of our family.
What would you do with $20,000?If we won $20,000, we’d put it straight toward a house—our future home. A place to plant roots, fill with love, and make memories. It would be the start of something lasting and ours.
