I am Lewis, Roger. This is how we met and other stories.
It was ten years ago
that I have met a woman; she’s my kind of pretty. I was on our flight heading
to my home and it was like fate did bring us together because I was moved to a
seat from Row 17 (my lucky number) to Row 14B. All the time I was waiting for
the plane to take off, I thought I have no one to sit with but then a beautiful
girl, about my age, took a seat. She prepared her things to keep up with the
long hours in flight, but something caught my eyes … we are reading the same
book, and I promised myself, one of those, is to strike a conversation with
someone when we’re reading the same book. How grateful I was on that day that I
did, because if I didn’t, we wouldn’t be celebrating the tenth anniversary of
our unbelievable meeting today.
We invited our closest friends, who never get tired of
listening to the story of how we met and would always say that it was magical,
to the celebration we prepared. Tyson brought his boyfriend, Geoff,
who is a flight attendant. While I was washing the dishes, Geoff obliged
himself to help me, he then told me about how comical of the story of how we
met. And he told me about this famous legend as a
matchmaker,Al Schwartz, he was in a check-in desk in an airport and that
would randomly pick someone (Person A) and change his or her seat so that the
other person (Person B) who he set up with Person A will be in the same Row. Then the later days, Geoff gave me the address of where Al Schwartz is living.
It really was a great deal to me; what he said could be Rory’s favorite gift. I am planning to go to Nevada to visit and thank Al Schwartz for completely giving Rory to me. I arrived at Al Schwartz house, he was all alone. And I saw many pictures in frame and hanged by the wall, I think it was his wife… and yes, he confirmed she is. I was telling our story and he was listening clearly to me.

And he said that he was just the one who matched us and that
the after-alls are our choices. He explained that without our choices, we
wouldn't be in each other’s arms, side by side. It is our choices that made the
best out of us. It is our choices that brought us to the story of how we met. This is indeed our story.
