" hey Cyrus, when did you get that close to Eros ?" Marcus asked on the phone, it was the next day and I decided to call in sick and said I wouldn't be able to come in today.

" Eros? " The name made my whole body feel hot.

" Yeah," he replied.

" Why are you asking me that? " I asked feeling confused.

" Well, he came up to me this morning and asked me for your home address," Marcus said and I could hear the confusion in his voice.

" Did you give it to him? " I asked

" No, I told him I'll ask you first before giving it to him "

I went quiet for a bit.

" Bro, you still with me? " Marcus asked after I'd gone quiet for a bit too long.

" Give it to him, " I said without thinking again.

" What? " He asked.

" Give him my address" I repeated

" Bro, are you sure? this is super odd, you just met him yesterday and now he's asking for your address, not gonna lie I'm worried about you man, did he do something to you? "

" It's fine Marcus, just give it to him, it's all fine " I replied.

" If you say so if you need anything call me, okay "

" Yeah," I said and hung up the phone.

I still felt so confused, this was the weirdest thing I've ever felt, I have no clue what is going on.

I have no clue why I'm feeling this way and why this total stranger feels so much like home like I've known him my whole life, like he was made for me, like if we were two puzzle pieces we would fit seamlessly together, could it be some type of soulmate reunion type of thing, or were we together in our past life.

I don't know, but everything about him feels familiar and like home, his touches, his voice, his smile, his smell, everything.

Knock knock knock.

Could that be him knocking at my door?

I quickly ran over to my door and opened it.

" Hey babe," my girlfriend, Lana said as she walked into my house and placed the bags she had in hand on the kitchen counter.

" You sounded so sick yesterday, you got me so worried, so I decided to come over today and make you some vegetables and chicken soup and some hot tea. " She said with a smile as she approached me and put her hand on my forehead.

" You feel hot," she said "Go rest while I finish cooking."

" Lana," I said.

" What babe? " She asked as she stopped unpacking the bags for a moment.

" You don't have to do this, " I said.

" What do you mean I don't, of course I do, I'm your girlfriend, who else would take care of you while you're sick other than me" She said and went back to unpacking the bags.

" I'm not sick, " I remarked.

" Stop being stubborn and rest while I finish cooking, it won't take long " she rolled her eyes.

" I want to break up " the words came out before I could stop myself.

She stopped moving, put down the knife she was using to cut the vegetables down, and turned to me.
