  1. I rubbed my eyes in confusion. "No... That can't be right..." I muttered quietly. It has to be some sort of misunderstanding. After all, I just recently got these powers. Maybe there's something more to them that I do not understand yet?
  2.  
  3. But, up until this point, those powers have been nothing but accurate. Complete strangers had single-digits while my closest friends had their numbers reach the hundreds of thousands. And no matter how large the number was, it was always a finite one. Why was this person an exception?
  4.  
  5. I started feeling nervous as more inquiries started popping into my head. If this person has an infinite number, does that mean they're immortal? Does it mean that I am immortal too, as I'm destined to see him continuously until the end of time?
  6.  
  7. I started sweating profusely. I had so many questions yet so little answers about this mystery person.
  8.  
  9. Suddenly, I felt someone tapping my right shoulder from behind. "Excuse me, ma'am?" I spun around to see who it was.
  10.  
  11. It was him! It was the guy! I slapped his hand away and screamed in his face. "Get away from me you creep!" I turned around and started running away from him, with terror filling every inch in my body. He froze in place, shocked from such a hostile reaction.
  12.  
  13. The people roaming in the crowded streets shot confused looks in my direction, but I ignored them and continued running. I dashed into a nearby hotel and into the closest ladies restroom. That weirdo can't follow me there.
  14.  
  15. I leaned against the door and put my hand to my chest. I was breathing so quickly from the fear and exhaustion. I rummaged through my handbag frantically. "Crap. It's not there." I whispered nervously. "Out of all the possible times to forget my pills, I forget them now. Typical."
  16.  
  17. I took some mint-flavored gum from my purse as a substitute, put four of them in my mouth, and started chewing anxiously. They helped calm me down a little, but the lingering paranoia was still there.
  18.  
  19. I stood against the door for a solid five minutes before swallowing the gum. I never understood why people spat gum out. I took another deep breath, pulled the door open and walked out. As I did, I bumped into something. I looked up to see what I had hit, and it was the guy again.
  20.  
  21. "I'm so sorry for scaring you..." He spoke in a frantic voice. "... I came over to apologize to you."
  22.  
  23. I stared at him for a few seconds, my initial fear melting away from this act of kindness. "No, no. I'm the one who should apologize." I replied. "I've... Recently had a lot on my mind, and... the smallest things... can make me go bonkers."
  24.  
  25. He chuckled in a charming manner. "Haha, I totally get that. My younger brother can sometimes be like that too. As soon as someone touches his phone, he hisses and tells them to go away."
  26.  
  27. "Haha, yeah I can only imagine how that would look like." I spoke while looking sideways. I turn my focus back to him and asked. "So... what did you originally want to talk to me about? Y'know... Before I did what I did?"
  28.  
  29. His eyes lit up, almost like he was waiting for me to ask that specific question. He grabbed my hands. "Do you believe in love at first sight? I haven't until I met you." I blushed slightly and he continued. "If you want, I'd like to get to know you a little better... over a drink or two."
  30.  
  31. I wasn't sure what to say. I looked at the infinity symbol floating above his head, still unsure of what it means. "Am I... fated to date him?" I theorized. "He does seem like a swell guy... But that symbol, that one single symbol, makes me feel an indescribable amount of uncertainty." I sighed.
  32.  
  33. "Yeah, that sounds lovely... Wanna go out this Friday at eight? Let's meetup in front of this hotel." I replied to his invitation.
  34.  
  35. "Perfect." He responded. "I can't wait. I feel like I could spend an eternity just standing by your side."
  36.  
  37. I chuckled. If only you knew.
