Our story, told by lantern light
We got lost on the same trail — and found the rest of our lives.
It began on a night-safari trail in Penang, where two strangers took the same wrong turn and walked out engaged to the idea of each other. Three years of botanical garden dates followed — early jasmine, late fireflies, a thousand slow laps of the same paths — until Arif asked properly, under the very moonflower trellis where the wandering began.
The wrong turn
One night-safari trail, two lost hearts, a single shared torchlight home.
Three years of gardens
Every date a walk among the trees, learning each other the way you learn a favourite path — by heart.
The moonflower trellis
Under the same blossoms that open only at night, Arif knelt — and Lin said yes before he finished asking.
the gardens kept our secret, until now
