the 2020 presidential election

Soulmates

                All his life Bernie Sanders had been waiting for his soulmate. Where he came from, soulmates were common... in the sense that everyone had one. Bernie was often teased by his older brother Lawrence (who guys by Larry) that he would never find his soulmate. Bernie would often get irritated by this as his brother had not found his as well, often dating random girls who were not his soulmate. When questioned about it, his brother often responded with "You'll never find the right lady if all you do is wait."

                Soulmates could hear the thoughts of their soulmate, Bernie often wondered what his soulmate thought of all the cursing he did in his head at his brother. The worst part is his soulmate wouldn't give any clues regarding any information about where they were of who they were. They wouldn't even respond to him either. 

                Bernie sighed as he got out of bed, quickly taking a shower and getting dressed before he heads to the kitchen. His parents were already at work but his brother sat at the table playing a game on his phone. On the kitchen counter was an uneaten plate of eggs, Bernie picked it up and sat down at the table next to his brother with it. He began eating, the eggs were already cold, something he was used to as his parents do this a lot. As he works on his eggs, thinking about his math test later that day, he can hear the thoughts of his soulmate peeking through.

                His soulmate was talking about transferring schools today. His soulmate wasn't nervous or excited, he was... amused? "I finally get to see him! Ohh my dear Bernie, today we will finally meet! This will be fun!" thought the voice. Bernie's heart started to beat, his soulmate knew who he was and more importantly was transferring to his school!?!

                That morning Bernie arrived at school, as nervous as ever.
