CHAPTER 13: SOULMATE, S

[S: Hello!]

[S: What is this strange app? Do you happen to know?]

[S: It’s a matchmaking app. Did we get matched?]

[S: Since we are matched, how about introducing ourselves?]

[S: You can call me S. What about you?]

This soulmate of hers was truly one of a kind. She had never seen a man who was so intrigued and curious about things. Just looking at the several messages he sent. She could tell that he was the extroverted type. If it was her, she wouldn’t bother to start the other party at all.

It would be better not to engage at all if the outcome was destined to be not so great.

However, she felt warm as she read the messages. It made her feel worthy. Maybe her insinuations weren’t right. Maybe things will go well in the future.

The other was interested in her, although she knew it was due to the unexpected pop-up chat that might have scared him. She was happy to know that.

[Hello. I guess that we are fated. I just found out that I have this strange app and it’s a matchmaking app.]

[You can call me, T.]

Trinity sent the messages and hoped for a reply. S had sent the messages three hours ago. So, she wasn’t confident if he was awake. After all, she didn’t even know where the other person was right now and if they were in the same time zone.

Trinity watched the chat for two minutes and, seeing no response, she exited the app. Rather than waiting like a fool, she might as well respond when there is a reply. For now, it was better to deal with other matters.

So, for the next two hours, she busied herself with adding several apps she used on a daily basis and including the main app she worked with her books.

She didn’t get a reply from S, so she ended up sleeping.

She had more work to do the next day.

***

The next morning, she woke up groggily, her eyes red and filled with sleepiness.

“Damn!” she cursed as she forced herself to wake up.

Trinity was furious at the moment as she recalled the nightmare, she had the whole night. She didn’t sleep well at all. And it was all because of that damned match-making app.

Recalling the contents of the dream, she cursed profusely for a while as she searched for her phone. Once she found it, she didn’t bother to check other things but went straight for the app.

When traumatized by something, facing it first would probably lessen the matter.

Besides, she was curious if the contents of the dream would match reality.

When she logged into the app, a wry smile appeared on her face as she looked at the unread message.

‘Could it be that the dream will come true?’ she couldn’t help but shiver with fear at the thought of that dream happening in real life.

Still, she clicked on the chat and a wave of relief washed over her as she looked at the content of the chats.

[S: Thank goodness, there was another person on the side.]

[S: It’s a pleasure to know you, T.]

[S: I don’t know why we ended up in such a situation, but I guess that this is fate. And since we came across like this, why don’t we chat more? We might not become lovers, but friends. Who knows?]

Trinity’s drowsiness vanished when she read those messages. The reality was different from dreams. After all, she couldn’t help but beam as she responded.

[T: It’s good if you feel that way. Besides, who said that those who got matched should end up together? Anyway, I agree with you about knowing each other. We can share some bits; however, I will say in advance that I am usually busy. I check the phone now and there. So, if I don’t respond, it’s not that I am ignoring you.]

[T: I hope that we get along with each other.]

After sending the messages, she waited nervously, hoping for a reply, however; she didn’t get one even after waiting for five minutes, confirming her previous guesses.

Maybe they were in different time zones.

With that swirling in her mind, she decided to focus on something else. After all, there was something that she was quite eager to look at. If it wasn’t because of the dream, she might have checked it first.

Without further ado, she clicked on the hedge fund app, her heart pounding in anticipation. Her daily interest entered yesterday, but she was sleeping by then. As a result, she wasn’t able to see the miracle.

But maybe seeing the miracle in the morning was better than at night. She would spend the day with a smile, and with her dream issues, where she found herself being scolded left and right by that soulmate of hers. Who told her in her face that she wasn’t worthy of it and that she was beneath him? He even dared show off some slender lady with a small face. It made her teeth hurt.

She wasn’t the slender type, but more on the curvaceous side. She even had a small belly and not a flat one like those slender ones trending everywhere. It made her feel attacked when this guy she only chatted with, messages stomped down on her like that.

Thankfully, it was a dream as S sounded much more pleasing than when she saw him in the dream.

Pushing that aside, Trinity logged into the hedge fund app and she yelped excitedly as she saw the changes on the screen.

When she invested her funds, the profile showed as.

Capital invested: B$20,250

Available funds: B$0

Daily interest: 8%

Interest earned: B$0

But now, it had changed to;

Capital invested: B$20,250

Available funds: B$1,620

Daily interest: 8%

Interest earned: B$1,620

She had earned B$1,620 in daily interest, making her available funds to be the same amount as well. Since she exhausted all of her funds, it was only normal that it showed like that.

This money wasn’t going to remain in her account. After all, she promised her neighbor to give her B$3,000 by tomorrow. So, for now, giving her B$1,500 would suffice.
