Marco and I have always been terrible at remembering dates.
Marco and I have always been terrible at remembering dates. Our first anniversary nearly slipped by us both! I was knee-deep in preparations for a new exhibition when Marco burst into the gallery, looking frazzled. "Aria! I can't believe we almost forgot!" he exclaimed, brandishing a small box. I gasped, suddenly remembering. "Oh my god, our anniversary!" We both burst out laughing at our shared forgetfulness. Marco handed me the box, and inside was the most exquisite earrings I'd ever seen. I was touched. Despite our scatterbrained tendencies, he'd managed to find something so perfectly 'me'. We decided to close the gallery early and headed to our favorite trattoria. Over pasta and wine, we reminisced about the past year and made plans for the next. As we walked home hand in hand, I couldn't help but think how lucky I was. Sure, we might forget dates, but we'd never forget what really matters – each other.
