The year someone turns 18 they have the opportunity to be injected with a serum that will produce a soulmate mark somewhere on their body. This serum is costly and the procedure to get the injection is not covered by insurance.

Sometime during the night while I was safely cocooned in my eldest soulmate's arms I must have received a text that was rerouted from the cell phone I use in Korea. I wasn't quite able to focus my eyes yet when I saw the icon indicating the existence of the text on my phone, and once I settled back into the mattress Jin pulled me tighter into his frame which if I am completely honest is another thing that hampers my focus. Instead of pulling away though I settle further into his arms and simply try to blink away the remaining sleep from my eyes.

Candace: I know you are on vacation but I think you should probably see this. (news link attached)
I pull open the website and peruse over what she linked me. The article has me exceptionally confused, but it's from a very reputable source so I am not questioning it's authenticity. Basically the article is a release stating that the serum injection and the fee to get on the soulmate listing have both been waived for all women making them both free now. "There has to be a reason for this." I mutter aloud which has Jin completely waking up concerned due to the stiffness in my shoulders.
"What's going on?" He asks.
I show him the article and wait until he reads through it. Then I ask him again the question that is bothering me the most. "Why would the United States suddenly make the serum injection and the soulmate listing free for women?"
"That is strange."
Before typing out a reply to Candace I double check the time in Chicago. Crap. It's late there.I'd hate to potentially bother Joshua since she is now living with him and Rebecca. But, I will probably get busy within only a few hours and forget to reply later on. I basically throw caution to the wind and type out a text to her anyway. If she is awake she probably has the notifications on vibrate or do not disturb, and if she isn't then she will get back with me when she wakes up in the morning, which will be afternoon for me.
