TIME FOR OUR STORIES
Emily & David
It was a typical fall day in Toronto. The leaves were changing colours, and the air was crisp. The city was buzzing with activity as the annual data marketing conference was about to begin. People from all over the world were in attendance, eager to learn about the latest trends and techniques in the field.
Among the attendees was a young woman named Emily. She was a marketing manager at a tech startup in New York City and had been sent to the conference to learn new ways to analyze cus- tomer data. Emily had always been passionate about her job, and she was excited to be in To- ronto and surrounded by like-minded individuals.
As she made her way to the conference center, Emily noticed a man walking towards her. He was tall with dark hair and piercing blue eyes. Emily couldn’t help but notice him, but she quickly looked away, not wanting to be caught staring.
The man, whose name was David, was also attending the conference. He worked for a large marketing agency in London and had flown to Toronto specifically for the event. Like Emily, David was passionate about his job and was always looking for new ways to stay ahead of the competition. As fate would have it, Emily and David were seated next to each other during the first keynote speech of the conference. They struck up a conversation about the speaker and soon found themselves engrossed in a lively discussion about the future of marketing.
Throughout the day, Emily and David attended several sessions together, each time growing more and more attracted to each other. They talked about everything from their favourite books to their dreams for the future.
As the day came to a close, Emily and David exchanged business cards and promised to keep in touch. They both knew there was something special between them, but they didn’t want to rush into anything.
