Some stories begin with heartbreak. This one begins with laughter.
When Annie meets Daniel, she discovers the kind of love that feels effortless-filled with late-night karaoke, Harry Potter debates, Disney and Star Wars adventures, road trips, quiet moments of faith, and the joy of building a life together. Their story isn't extraordinary because it's perfect. It's extraordinary because it's real at heart.
Then came 2020.
As COVID-19 swept across the world, millions of lives became daily statistics. Behind every number was a person with dreams, quirks, family, and people who loved them.
This is the story of one of those people.
