They told us we wouldn't last. In the crowded hallways of campus, everyone doubted us. The tutors whispered, our friends scoffed, and the world gave us an expiration date. But Joseph and I? We were invincible. Our love wasn't just a college romance; it was a force of nature. An undeniable, deep-rooted bond that nothing could break. Or so I thought.
