Ravneet is a naturalized American citizen, but was born in India. In her first trip to the UK she met Kiran, through a cousin. Ravneet is 18 and Kiran a year older. They both realized they had feelings for each other before they even knew they were gay. They started seeing each other, traveling between the two countries despite the fact that they are not out to their families or friends and have little financial support. After 6 months of painful separation they met in Los Angeles for a two-week "honeymoon". After their time together and back in the UK, Kiran came out to her parents. With the recent passage of the Civil Partnership law in the UK, they are weighing their options to stay together.
