May 19.
May 19 became by far one of the most memorable and the most important date of my college career.
Although the statement is a tad dramatic, the sentiment still stands that May 19 changed my life forever.
May 19.
May 19 was the day that I met two things I cared for deeply:
1. Becoming a member of my college's orientation organization
2. Meeting the first guy ever to outdo the matchmaker
May 19.
But, I'm jumping ahead of myself.
Allow me to introduce my self, my name isn't Hov, H-to-the-o-v.
No.
The name is Sasha Sai and matchmaking is the game. I've been matchmaking ever since I discovered boys didn't have cooties. So like at the age of 4 and 1/2. The typical age any logical person discovers this not so novel fact. I felt attuned to the world's order of anti-cootie catching as well as anti-cootie giving.
May 19.
Since pre-K I've been making fetch happen and helping friends, family, and sometimes even enemies find love. Before May 19 I never thought it possible for SS to be MM aka match-made. But everything changed that faithful day.
May 19.
However, although it sounds like something amazing and positively wonder filled of life changing events, part of that statement is true.
May 19.
May 19 did have an amazing and wonder filled impact on my life but "positively" wouldn't be the adjective I would use now to describe this event. Perhaps a few weeks ago I would agree with that adjective but I find it to be the complete opposite of what May 19 stands for me now.
May 19.
Now I wish that day could have never existed.
May 19.
I wish it never happened.
May 19.
I wish it never could be, was, or is.
May 19.
I wish it simply never existed.
May 19.
Why?
May 19.
Because if it never existed I wouldn't have to go through a pain so deep that words could not grasp the hurt that runs through these very blood, sweat, and tears.
This day not only marks my greatest triumph but it also bestowed an unremovable lipstick stain on my life for being my greatest tragedy.
May 19.
May 19 was the day that I met my first fire that turned into ice.
My first castle turned into sand.
My first mountain turned into a mole hill.
My first love turned into hate.
My first man turned into boy.
My first Him.
But, I'm jumping ahead of myself. Let us all back track to this time, this May 19, and see how the matchmaker made the worse match in her entire life.
A match for the ages.
An unexpected match that went even more unexpectedly wrong.
A match for Herself.

A/N:
Hello Dear Reader,
I just wanted to give you a little teaser for what is to come of Sasha Sai, matchmaking extraordinaire! I really wanted to start it off with the main character just introducing herself for once rather than just jumping right into the romance. Build makes things so much more interesting once your invested in the character! Anyway, I've been known for being a real rambler so hope you're enjoying the story
Cheers,
CiCi
