Being nervous, and fresh from the front lines of the classroom, Lucien drank his entire coffee before Liana had even arrived—he still apologizes about that regularly. In spite of that social faux pas, we had a wonderful first date talking and getting to know one another. Only a few days later, we had our second date where Lucien cooked us a Chicken Alfredo dinner, which is now our “anniversary dinner”. Date number three involved building a Thuma bed frame, moving boxes, and having take out in Liana’s newly furnished studio apartment.
