Cupid Report

Alexandria Bergstrom & Clint Riordan

Recognizing the challenge of creating the most distinctive and difficult match, this Cupid has chosen to re-visit a match gone wrong nearly three decades before, when a defective arrow forged an impossible bond between Robert Bergstrom and Regeena Scarlatti. While those two did fall in love, marry and produce offspring, the marriage turned tragically sour. Their daughter, Alexandria Scarlatti Bergstrom, has not, until this Challenge, known she had a father who cared about her. So it was time for these errors to be corrected. Please note that Robert Bergstrom's death was entirely coincidental, but this Cupid chose to make an opportunity from this sad situation.

On the surface, Clint Jason Riordan, with his calm, even disposition and compassionate nature, due to his happy childhood, marred only by the sudden death of his father would seem an easy match for Alexandria. But like the failed generation that preceded them, these two proposed lovers have entirely different lifestyles, personalities and goals, which present nearly impossible obstacles to overcome. Alexandria, the fashionista with a fixation on color and clothing and the exciting nightlife of the Big City, has no comprehension of Clint's love of rural ranch life and horses. Clint, on the other hand, finds city life distasteful, and has little respect for people he sees as shallow and callous.

Nevertheless, this Cupid became convinced that this match needed to be made, regardless of the obstacles. It should be noted that an entire quiver full of arrows had to be dispatched at various intervals throughout the courtship. However, it is the belief of this Cupid that the expense was well worth the cost.
