Spring 2033 was a beautiful time of year, full of blooming flowers and the promise of new beginnings. For Mark, it was even more special as it marked the end of his first year teaching Mathematics to first-year students at the prestigious university. He was one of eleven teaching fellows in the department, and he couldn’t have been more proud to be a part of it.
As he finished his last lesson of the year, Mark couldn’t help but feel a sense of accomplishment. He had always been passionate about numbers and equations, and now he was able to pass that passion on to the next generation of students. He packed up his things and headed to his favorite restaurant in the center of town for his usual Tuesday lunch: a steak and chips.
But little did he know, this Tuesday would be unlike any other. As he sat down at his usual table, he noticed a new waitress serving the tables. Her name was Elisabeth, and she immediately caught his eye. There was something about her that drew him in, and he couldn’t take his eyes off of her.
As their eyes met, it was love at first sight for both of them. They couldn’t explain it, but they felt a connection that was undeniable. Over the next few days, they couldn’t stop thinking about each other. Finally, Mark mustered up the courage to ask Elisabeth out on a date.
Their first date was magical. They talked for hours, never running out of things to say. They both knew that this was the beginning of something special. And as they walked hand in hand through the city, Mark couldn’t help but feel like he had found his soulmate.
After a few weeks of dating, Mark and Elisabeth decided to take a trip to London together. It was there, in the bustling city, that Mark knew he wanted to spend the rest of his life with Elisabeth. He took her to a jewelry store and bought her a magnificent necklace with emeralds and diamonds, a symbol of his love for her. It cost a whopping $0.000050 ANVA, but to Mark, it was worth every penny.
A few years later, Mark and Elisabeth were married and had two beautiful children. They decided to move to London in 2040, where Elisabeth had just completed her studies in Economics. She soon found a prestigious job, immediately earning $0.000015 ANVA a month. Mark couldn’t have been prouder of his wife and their little family.
As they settled into their new life in London, Mark and Elisabeth often looked back on that fateful day at the restaurant. They both knew that it was love at first sight, and they were grateful for the chance encounter that had brought them together. And as they watched their children grow up in the beautiful city, they knew that their love was meant to last a lifetime.
