the red string

the string that led me to you

a love letter for kania, august 28, 2023 – august 28, 2026

Arkan & Kania landscape memory

the story of how my favorite person became my whole world

they say an invisible red thread ties two souls together.

i used to think it was just a poetic myth.

until august 28, 2023, when it led me straight to you.

back when my world was waiting for you.

i was just going through ordinary days, having no idea that the prettiest smile, the sweetest laugh, and the kindest heart were waiting for me at the other end of the string.

i never truly understood what home felt like until you became my everyday.

the moment my whole heart fell in love

August 28, 2023

the day the thread officially tied our hearts together.

A NOTE FROM ARKAN

“the day you officially said yes. my hands were shaking, but when you smiled at me, all my worries disappeared. you will always be the best decision of my life.”

28.08.2023

the moments i replay in my head.

choose a stop along our thread to look back on:

4 AM talks

staying up till 4 AM listening to your voice get soft and sleepy

02:14 AM, CORNER BOOTH WITH YOU

tap any order below to see what i was thinking

Your laugh

the way your eyes crinkle when you laugh — my absolute favorite view

tap the knot to untangle

and i would still choose you, every single time.

we aren't always perfect.

we had our stubborn moments, our tired days, and times when things felt heavy.

but whenever i look into your eyes, there is no one else in this whole world i'd rather hold onto. you are my home, kania.

3 whole years with my dream girl.

36 months, 1,096 days, and i still fall for you more and more every single morning.
