Dear friend,
I am writing to you because today is my 18th birthday. Now I don't know who will be reading this and when, but I hope to Heaven that you're listening because my world is going to fall apart very soon. Maybe you can figure out why the system is so cruel as to do this to us, or maybe how to stop it! It's like they say in history class when I ask why we have to bother learning about the past. "We must learn what we have done," my teacher says, "so that we can understand how to not do it again. After all, we don't want another Hitler or Trump coming into power, do we?" She's not a very positive person.
But today is the day my world is going to fall apart. To catch you up, assuming you didn't live through the hell that this is about to be, today is the day I stop aging. I get to stop aging to stay beautiful for some stranger who I'm "meant to be with". Oh yeah, it's all that soulmate garbage you've heard about, but it's real life. It's my life. Damnit.

The Day I Met the One
Fiksi RemajaImagine you turn 18, and that's it. You stop aging completely, living each day at the same age. Until, you meet the one person you're meant to be with. "I want to grow old together," they say. Well here, you can.
