Are you normally impulsive?
Yes, I’m impulsive. But I never decided something like that before. I feel like we have just one life. And, I mean, it’s like I told him: “OK, maybe it’s not going to work, but we don’t know until we do it.” And he was like, “OK, let’s do it.” If this doesn’t work, OK, we can split and you can go back to Colombia, but we’re not going to be the same. You are never the same. And we don’t regret. I mean, we have been together for five years and it’s, like, one of the best things that happened to me.
So you got married and then found the rings.
We got married and then the pandemic started. He went to visit his mom and he is almost locked up in Colombia. He took the last plane from Colombia to Mexico. So he landed in Mexico City and the airport was closed. And then we moved to Puebla and we were locked up for, I mean, five months with my mom and my kids.
When we finally were able to go out, we went on our honeymoon, finally, like, seven months after. And when we came back from our honeymoon, I was like, “We don’t have a ring.” And he was like, “It’s fine.” And I was like, “No, it’s not fine. I want a ring.” And we went by motorcycle, in my brother’s motorcycle, to the downtown in Mexico City; we did the cathedral and the Zócalo, and I was like, “There’s some places where they sell gold and silver and we should go there.” And we got this one.
What is special about your mom’s ring to you?
She was using it three years ago or something. I told her, “Oh, this is so beautiful, Mama. Oh, it fits on me.” She told me, “Take it to your tour.”
