Little did I realize that my friend was friends with Eric. In 1993, I was at Century 10, SSF haah This is so dorky, my friend was talking to Eric and his friends and Eric came up to me and asked for my number. haha We talked for a little bit, but for some reason we lost touch.
Eric was suppose to move to NYC or L.A. but his dad chose to live in Daly City instead.This is even more conincidental--I use to work at St. Francis Pavilion in Daly City and on lunch break I use to go across the street to visit my grandma at her retirement home. Little did I know that Eric's grandpa was living at the same retirement home!! What the heck!? Eric use to visit his grandpa there too. Also the trippy thing is, that Eric's dad knows my grandma and uncle and I never knew this at the time.
Then in 1996, I attended Badan High School. Little did I know that Eric had to go to that school too...Finally Eric and I met again! Eric's best friend told me that this guy in class wanted my number and THAT GUY WAS ERIC! When we heard each other's names, it sounded sooo familiar. From then on, we have started dating and now we are married...
Isn't this magical, is this serendipity to you or is it just coincidence? We believe that God has placed us together. Eric and I have always crossed each other through our lives without us even knowing it. It's like it was a sign for Eric to live in Daly City instead of NYC or L.A. It seems as it was a sign that my grandma was to live at that retirement home, a sign that I was to work and live near by Eric. A sign that I got kicked out of South City H.S. and go to Badan.
