It started at
a party, too.
The first official NEPENTHE event.
We met working — the first official event NEPENTHE ever threw. Two people with jobs to do, in a room that was slowly becoming something.
Professional became friendly.
The emails got shorter, the dinners got longer. Somewhere in there we stopped being colleagues and started being each other's person to call first.
And then, much later, something more.
It took its time. That's probably why it held.
Romanos asked. Nefeli said yes.
A proposal, an answer, and a decision: if NEPENTHE is the reason we met, it should be part of how we celebrate. So we're folding it into our story — our party, inside NEPENTHE's fourth birthday. Same room, four years later, entirely different life.
