This one is about Alesha and Amanda.
They live in a universe where they get born with a timer on their wrist, the time is the time when you get to meet your soulmate.

My life is kinda boring, I am just an ordinary blond haired woman, working at a public school as history teacher. I am the only one of my friends who didn't met their soul mate yet. It's kinda sad to be single from your birth on till the time you get 30 but I am already 49 and going to be 50 soon.

I get up for my work and get dressed, I put on a over-knee skirt and a blouse.

After that I grab my lunch and walk outside to my car. It is a German car, a VW Polo from 1998.
When I hear the sound of the engine I start driving but the way I am driving is not long, the engine of my car starts to make some bad sounds so I drive to the left side of the street and the car just gets off.
A few times I try to start the engine but as it doesn't start, I get out of the car and start walking.

Luckily the way to the subway isn't that long, so I just walk there, buy me some newspaper and get into the subway.

After about five minutes a lady sits next to me and looks into my newspaper.
As I arrive at my station, she asks, "I know, that we don't know each other but could I please get the newspaper?", she gives me five pound and I look at her.
"It's okay, you get it for free", I smile at her and give her the newspaper and the money.

I walk out of the subway and walk to the stairs so I can go to the school.
I look at the time and see, that I have twenty more minutes to get there, then I look at my wrist and see, that the timer is at '-10' minutes.

I need a short moment to notice, "FUCK!", I scream.
I sit down on the stairs and lay my head onto my knees, I start to cry and after a few minutes I feel a hand on my head.

I look up at the person, with my teary eyes.

"Thank you for giving me the newspaper", the voice of the woman I met in the subway says.
She sits down on a stair next to me and asks, "Are you okay? I just noticed that the time on my wrist is over so I jumped out at the next stop and got here with another subway."

"Really? I-I just noticed it too, I thought I will never see you again. I was scared about never meeting my soulmate", she puts her hand on my shoulder.

"But you did. Soulmates will surch each other for their whole life and I would have surched you for my whole life even if you weren't my soulmate. My name is Alesha, you can call me Lesha"

"My name is Amanda, call me Mandy", I say to her, after a few seconds I add, "Why would you have surched for me even if I wasn't your soulmate?"

"Because you are cute, Mandy", she answers.

I blush and we both start grinning, she grabs my hand and wipes the tears from my face, "Where do you have to go?", she asks.

Together we walk to the school I work at and then she gives me her phone number.

"Good bye", she says, "Call me maybe", she adds.

"I definitely will", I answer and she gives me a small peck on my cheek.

After that I walk into the school, into my classroom and was happier then ever before.

I know, this one is kinda cliché and also very short, I am sorry for that. :)
