During our last dinner together in Boston, we ate at a chinese resto. He was leaving the following day and would be going back to Manila. Our conversation that night went from talking about our favorite moments touring the city to talking about our engagement; it was mostly the latter. We talked about how difficult things will be and that we must move forward if we really want this to work out.
At the end of our meal we were given two fortune cookies:
Mine: "A dream you have will come true."
His: "Do not give up; the beginning is always the hardest."
It seemed to us that the two were connected to each other and to our situation; we thought it was a cool coincidence. I still have those little strips of paper.
