Deep as the sea

I don't know whether it was the morning or I was feeling different than usual. Getting up from bed I started to get ready for my collage as I did every morning, LIfe was nice sure I had my own ups and downs and going through hard things but I still was happy. My parents and friends were there to support me during those times. I had gotten into my dream college but since it was far i had to go away from home. I had everything i wished for except for a soulmate.

In 2015 there was a virus which spread throughout the whole world. Nobody knew how it appeared or how it spread over the week. It was not a virus that killed people or any threat to the humanity rather it was something nobody even thought about in their dreams.

SOULMATE a person who is the other half of us, someone who is supposed to be with us till the day we die. Who will love you unconditionally no matter what happens, Who will never leave you until death do them apart. Atleast that's what other people said but me being someone who still hasn't met them couldn't underdtand them well. WE are supposed to met our soulmates when we turn 18, Majority of them met theirs at 18 but there where some rare cases like me who are still mateless. Though it didn't affect me that much I still felt lonely on many nights.

After splashing the water on my face I looked into the mirror to see the same tired face staring back at me. Dark circles under the eyes red eyes and a dull face that looked like it hadn't slept for days. Before i get too lost in my thoughts someone knocked on the door

"Hey, serin are you ok ? it has been 15 minutes since you are in there, come out i have prepared your breakfast too"

I forgot. I lived with my roommate : If you forgot

the hostels rooms are always expensive
