Thats weird..." I checked my wrist, the clock had just hit the 30 second mark but I looked around and there was no one there. I was a worrisome guy overall, but I felt justified, I mean today was the day I was meeting my soul mate. Not that I expected my dream girl to be in the storage closet at work, but still I was nervous.
Walking out with a box the boss had requested I walked back to my cash register setting it on the shelf. My wrist hit the 20 second mark.

Where was she? I could not help but get worried that an error would pop up or that she was gone and my timer would run out with no response. I panicked, I'd change my own fate if I had to. Running out of time I hurried through the back door. There was a park outside and maybe I was supposed to be there to find my soul mate.

A faint ding of the doorbell hit my ear. Wait was that it?? She was here! I turned around running back to the counter. "Don't worry I'm just in the back!"
I ran out looking at my wrist as it hit zero. Out of breath "Hi I'm Matt!" Sticking out my hand for a handshake it was met by a firm hand. Meeting my soulmate's eyes for the first time they spoke.
"I'm Steven." The man gave a smile. "It's nice to meet you." I gave a sigh of relief. He was perfect.
