The couple both attend Church of New Vision. At the church there would be a segment that allowed each person in the congregation to greet one another that attended service that day. Anthony, the social butterfly would come over to Sherika and greet her. In the month of August, they so happened to be on the same 28 bus and it so happened that they came off at the same stop, at Gunhill on the 5 train line. He was heading to work and she was heading to school. Sherika came off the bus first and saw that Anthony was coming off the bus as well and held the door. Anthony said thank you and asked if she attends Church of New Vision. She responded and said yes. He then replied saying you look a lot different in terms of height. I've always seen you in heels and you're shorter than you looked in church. They then communicated more, as well as exchanged numbers and realized that she attended the same school that he worked at. At the time, Sherika was in a complicated relationship and told Anthony, so he backed off. In the month of October the two had seen each other at the train station again, and this time Sherika was single. They communicated day and night, as well as going on dates together. On December 11th, 2016, the couple went on a date to Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum on 42nd street and walked to Rockefeller Center to see the Christmas tree. As they hung out there for a while, Anthony turned to Sherika and asked her to be his girlfriend and from then on, the two have been inseparable ever since.
