Our eyes met that same instant and she held my gaze for less than a minute before looking away. I also looked away, turning back to Ifeanyi who was oblivious to her presence.
"We could still meet before I leave."
My voice was a bit low because I didn't really know what prompted me to say that. It still tore me apart that I had to leave but I consoled myself by somehow believing in something I never even gave a shit about.
Fate. If we were destined to be, then definitely it would bring us back together in the future, wouldn't it? At least that's how I learnt that fate worked. In mysterious ways.
It all sounded and seemed silly but I was really crossing my fingers hoping that it would be the case.
"Definitely. You didn't think I would miss the last moments I have to spend with you, did you? From now on, I'll visit everyday. Get ready, because you're about to have a pest in your life."
