He doesn't sweat

I found another thing about vampires on the internet today. They do not sweat.

An average human being sweats between 0.8 to 1.4 liters a day. We sweat when we exercise a lot or work in an environment with high temperature or in my case while ordering my food. Which also makes me lose my ability to speak.

But that's not the case with vampires. Being the magical beings they are, they don't sweat like us petty humans. In other words, they are too cool for that.

Right now I am standing in the back garden of my house. The only place in my house where I can see my neighbour's gym room.  With my binoculars glued to my eyes, I am spying my neighbour while he lifts 30 kg dumbbells in each hand.

He's been doing that for an hour!! Lifting the dumbbell up and down. Does he not get bored?

I looked closely but I still can't find a single drop of sweat on his forehead. But his biceps. They look like mountains. A human being can't posses those mountains. He's definitely a vampire.

" A big vampire. " I said under my breath. Pranit stopped and looked towards my direction. I instantly squat down.

Did he saw me?? I hope not. What if he figured out that I know who he is? Or worst!!! What if he figure out that I know that he knows that I know about what he is? Will he climb into my bedroom through the window in the middle of the night and drink my B positive blood.

Calm down Nachiket. Calm down. Be positive. Maybe he didn't saw me and-

" What are you doing down there? " Pranit asked as he stood on the other side of the wall looking down at me. He has his chin on his palm and is looking cool while doing that. Definitely a vampire.

" I lost my coin. " I said and pat my hand in the dirt like I was searching for something.

" Why is there a binocular hanging around your neck? " Shit. I totally forgot about the binoculars.

" I'm using it to find my coin. " I said with the most serious face I could make.

' Please believe me. Please believe me. Please believe me. Please believe me. ' I chanted for as long as he stared down at my face.

" Okay. But you look like you want to ask me something. " Pranit said.

Yes I do. I want to ask you if you are a vampire. But I'm not as stupid as to ask the vampire if he's a vampire.

" Ummm I was wondering that… umm… can I jog with you tonight? " I asked

OMG I'm so smart!! I could have easily passed the IAS exam with my intelligence. My neighbour went for Jogging every night at exactly 10 PM because of course he's not a human. No sane human would do that to his body.

2 hour of jogging can make any human sweat. So I can finally find some clues. Ufff! Sometimes my genius is…. It's almost frightening.

Here Comes the night. And at exactly 10 PM we are standing in front of our houses. Warming up our body for the jog.

" You might not be able to jog 2 hour straight. 30 min should be enough for the first day. " Pranit said while he stretched his legs.

" No no. I don't want to ruin your routine. Plus, 2 hours is a piece of cake. " I said, assuring him, while copying what he was doing.

You think 30 min can make you sweat? You long legged, big muscled,  6 pack abs beast. How is he so tall anyways?? He's a full foot taller than me. Those complan's ads were fake. I didn't grew an inch after my 12th grade.

I was too into cursing that I didn't notice pranit had already started to run. I have to stay close to him to see if he's sweating or not.

Remember when I said 2 hours is a piece of cake. Yeah that. I take that back.

We have jogged for 30 minutes and I have sweated away all the water in my body, maybe my blood too. I am lying on the concrete road trying to catch my breath which is currently as hard as getting over the news about my crush's wedding. Priyanka Chopra. I will love you till the day I die. Which seems like it's today.

I finally calmed down and drank some water from pranit's bottle. Oh I forgot to tell you. My neighbour looks as fresh as a daisy. No sweat at all. Not even a small drop. Whereas I am about to drown in my own pool of sweat!!

Except a worried expression on his face everything else looks normal. Too normal to be true.

Anyways I was too tired to stand so Pranit had to take me back to my house. For once I was happy that there are no other houses here. Otherwise my prestigious reputation will be ruined if someone saw me in someone's arms. Let alone a man.

In conclusion - My neighbour is a vampire.

And I have to keep my investigation on hold for 2 days before I can finally use my legs. The world can wait for this huge discovery, my health is more important.
