The Day I Married My Childhood Sweetheart

Tyler Gilbert and my best friend Isabel Sanchez shared the same zodiac sign.

The two of them always had this natural, effortless understanding.

They were both top students. Their SAT scores landed at exactly the same near-perfect mark.

They went to the same university, too.

While I was at the school next door, and even seeing them once meant messaging ahead to book a time.

Later, after graduation, I said I wanted to catch a midnight movie.

The two of them said, in the same breath, that they'd already seen it.
