“Don’t be afraid to go that extra mile for someone special, because that person will go the extra mile for you.” -Ben Kalcher In February 2022, Darryl was invited to a simple christening of twins but was debating whether he should attend or not as he had something planned in the afternoon. Eventually, he decided to attend, as it would be a gathering of friends as well. As he attended, he unknowingly met what eventually was going to be something truly amazing and beautiful that would happen in his life. Zamae was invited by the twins' grandmother but was also having second thoughts on whether to go or not since she worked the night before the event and had not slept yet. She decided to attend, and little did she know, they were already planning to introduce her to someone. For quite some time, Darryl tried his best to find that special someone. People have been calling him too picky as they tried to help him find the “one” until that fated day. Zamae, on the other hand, just got out of a long-term relationship. She didn’t expect anything serious or to find one that fast since she's been in a relationship for a long time, but as they say, when you know, you know. However, some things don’t start strong in the beginning. Just a little exchange of words and nothing more. Fast forward to Darryl celebrating the bachelor’s party of another friend, where Zamae piqued interest as she and her friends were interested in doing the same thing. As to a simple and friendly inquiry, they both didn’t realize that they had moved way past that question to a more “getting to know each other” phase. Skip ahead to May of the same year; they decided to meet each other and eventually ended up dating. Now, with electrifying excitement, they are celebrating their permanent bond of love with the people who mean everything to them and love the most. To everyone who’s reading this short love story, please join the couple for a night of their lives on June 13, 2024, as the cosmos unites us all to celebrate Darryl and Zamae’s love.
