Tiara & Al’Pacino

Inside: OUR LOVE STORY THE BIG DAY MEET THE WEDDING PARTY

OUR LOVE STORY Al and I attended Rufus King International Baccalaureate High School together 2004-2008. Freshman year, we did not know each other well. We passed each other by in the hallways, but he always caught my eye. Sophmore year, we had a history class together with Mr. Speaker. Al sat on the far right side and I sat on the left side, so we couldn’t speak to each other. Until one day, Mr. Speaker decides he wants to assign seats. Both of our last names started with a “B” so Al ended up directly behind me. Oh Boy, did my life change from that moment on. Al right away expressed his liking for me, but I brushed him off. I was the quiet girl and well let’s just say Al was the class clown. We were complete opposites! He made everyone laugh, even the teachers. Deep down, I really liked him too, but I was way too shy to express it. One day, he wrote

his number on a piece of paper and gave it to me. I didn’t throw it away, but I was too shy to call him first. After he kept asking me, I finally gave him my number. He called me that day after school and asked if we could hang out. With my mom’s approval, he came over my house.

I couldn’t believe I had a boy come over and my family was surprised too. Everyone knew I really liked this guy.

I’m glad I gave that guy a chance because we fell in love and have been inseparable every since. I love Al because, he was never afraid to be himself around me, he adores me and wasn’t afraid to show it. There was nothing he wouldn’t do for me. We grew from kids not knowing what the future holds to living out ours dreams together even when the odds were against us. Welcome to our happily ever after.

“EVERYTHING I’VE NEVER DONE, I WANT TO DO WITH YOU.”
