She had a special bond with the number 8 ever since She was a little girl. Her school id number had an 8 in it, and then when her university id also had the number 8 in it. She strongly believed in the idea that 8 had some special meaning in her life. It became evident when She met him on the 8th day of the 8th month at exactly 8pm, when her friends forced her on a blind date. He saved her from a terrible date and they soon became friends. She had fallen head over heels quite instantly not only because He was a wonderful guy, He actually understood her. She decided to take the plunge and ask him out. She decided to do it a year from the day they met. She sent him a single line text at exactly 8:08am to meet her the same evening at 8pm. He replied within seconds saying, “I thought you’d never ask!” __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ He had lived on the 8th street 8 blocks from his school and university. It made it easier to give directions. He had a dear friend as a child who lived next door; She had to move shortly after She turned 8. But they always kept in touch. He had secretly always had a crush on her, and even though girls tried to woo him, He stood firm about his feelings for her. She returned the day She turned 18. She surprised him right outside his family home with a box of stuff. She giggled and said, “Aren’t you going to help me unpack? I just moved 3000 miles to go to school with you! I believe that is the least you can do!” __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ She was 1 of 8 people who had a specific condition wherein once She saw a document, or an image or visited a home She would remember it to its last detail. People were boggled by it, but She enjoyed a fruitful school life, got the best grades and got in to the best university. Shortly after joining university, She had met him in the same dorm building She did. He found her memory quite fascinating. He would often test her on stuff and She happily complied. One evening, they were hanging out when there was a knock on the door. It was one of their friends, who looked distraught, had been mugged while walking home from university. She helped her friend and asked her where exactly it happened. She decided to play a sting on him 8 days from her friend’s mugging, and it actually worked. She was able to testify and the mugger was put away. He watched as She sat in front of the jury and laid out all of the details. He knew in that moment She was even more special and wonderful that He had imagined. As soon as She walked out of the courtroom, He asked her to on a real date…. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________
