Fate played a part in placing Rachelle Chung For Yuen on the same Piccadilly Line train as the bomber on 7 July, as it did with many others killed in the blasts.
The 27-year-old accountant from Mauritius left her Mill Hill home and found out at the Tube station that signal failures were sending all Northern Line trains along the Bank branch, through King's Cross.
Mrs Chung For Yuen was heading to work in Piccadilly Circus and so disembarked at King's Cross to change lines.
Her husband Billy, 29, also from Mauritius, never saw her again after she left their house that day.
"I can't believe your life can change so quickly," he told the Edgware Times.
"She is a very nice person and everyone misses her very much."
'Enjoying life'
He and friends of Mrs Chung For Yuen handed out leaflets across the West End and at stations and hospitals in London in a desperate attempt to find her.
Originally from Curepipe in Mauritius, she studied at the Our Lady High School.
And after three years in the UK, she seemed to be enjoying life.
At a family occasion in Mauritius in June, she told friends and relatives that things were going well.
Her funeral service was in her homeland, attended by the country's most senior statesmen.
President Sir Anerood Jugnauth, Prime Minister Navin Ramgoolam and opposition leader Paul Berenger were among the congregation.
