Yumi, one of Leda's closest friends had finally convinced her to meet one of her friends, Adam. Yumi had incessantly told Leda how they were perfect for one another, and how he was one of the cutest and more intelligent friends she had. Leda wasn't looking for a relationship in that moment, actually she thought she wasn't even made for one. Yet, she decided to give it a shot, it was cool meeting new people.
The meeting happened during one of Yumi's famous parties, she loved playing matchmaker and she would proudly point out the couples who were together thanks to her intervention. Yumi introduced them and sneaked away with some excuse. Leda took a close look at him, it was certainly her type, tall but not too much, broad of shoulders, muscular but lean, and had the most astonishing deep blue eyes she had seen in her life. They hit off immediately, she was a professional athlete who loved to read and he was a journalist who loved exercising. They had so much in common they wondered how they hadn't met before. They became so engrossed in the conversation, they completely forgot about the party. In the meanwhile, Yumi spied on them with a grin on her face, proud of yet another match.
Leda and Adam went out on some dates after the party. The more she saw him, the more convinced she was they were soulmates. Time flew when they were together having profound conversations, and the kisses, the kisses were perfect, soft and tender, yet passionate, just like everything they ever did together. However, deep inside she knew it wouldn't work. Adam knew it too, as one day they both agree to stop trying and just stay friends.
When Yumi heard she was devastated.
-But, you told me you were soulmates.- she muttered.
-And we are, it's just we are too much alike.
