he considered them a curse. Well atleast now he does, because today is his 21th birthday,his "blessing" has shown up, and it's gonna ruin his whole life.

"Hey Gyu-ah!!"
a voice that's been around him since he was 6,his childhood best friend , Choi Soobin
"Well you seem happy, a little too happy hm?"
"Yah! is there a problem with me being happy?! " soobin said as he jokingly hit beomgyu
"Okay okay of course I'm happy my lovely hyung is so cheerful today! ~ but seriously,what happened? "
"I finally got a break from helping my father with his work!"
ah yes, did I mention, Choi soobin is like the polar opposite of me financially, his father is a famous rich CEO and of course, Soobin is his hire, and the future CEO, while I'm not financially stable at all, some people can even call it poor, but I've lived with it long enough to not care anymore, I major in music, he majors in engineering, it's ironic, somehow we still became best friends,childhood ones at that.
"Hey bin-ah.. is your father doing well? "
"you- seriously.He's fine he just wanted me to focus on my life more while I'm still " young", can you believe it! that man doesn't realize I'm turning 21 in 2 years not 2 centuries!!" he pouts in the cutest yet funniest way ever
"hmm, considering your personality, I also would think it's in 2 centuries"
"Choi Beomgyu. Are you asking for a death wish? "
"I'll skip, I need to know my soulmate first, as you say. "
"Ah good job !! finally you've matured to know that they matter" he says excited
"but will a mark really control how I feel about someone? " I say non caring
"well maybe not but it can help you find someone that's actually meant for you instead of going around dating people who aren't meant for you, plus, isn't it a blessing, the universe gifted us someone who'll love us as much as we'll love them"
ah yes, Choi Soobin, the hopeless romantic, even after his family separated in a harsh way, he always believed in love and fate.
"You're so excited about it huh"
"I can't wait!!, I've always imagined myself with a loving family, a wife and a daughter to take care of, to spend my happiest moments with" oh.
"I know, it's different for me"
"How so?, I thought you also wanted to fall in love, even if it's without the mark"
"because I'll never actually fall in love, even if I want it" 𝘣𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘶𝘴𝘦 𝘐 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶.
"hey don't say that, I'm sure you'll find them when the time co-"
"okay mister loverman that's enough!!, can we change the topic?" I say as I poke his waist
"ow!! okay okay, also, we can go stargazing today right? "

"of course hyung!" soobin smiles at the reassurance, his stupid smile that makes my heart flutter and my face red, 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦.
the bell rang.
"ah shit.. I forgot we have class"
"How didn't you fail yet? "
"I'll seriously kill you!! " such aggressive words to say while tackling me in the sweetest way ever, we're both laughing.
"see you later beoms!! " he ran
"take care!! "

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY SOOBIN HYUNG!! "
me, kai, tyun, and jun-hyung all say at the same time.
#
kai and taehyun, a couple we met at a library, we had to sit at the same table due to the place being full, we automatically became friends , and discovered that they're dating even before having any mark, as kai said "a mark doesn't matter if our hearts are literally connected!! "
I really admire them.
And Yeonjun-hyung, Soobin's brother,we bicker alot but I'd be a liar if I said he didn't act like my mother at times and he cares for everyone and everything, he's what we call an angry softie.
#
we all hug Soobin as he laughs and almost cries(but he doesn't wanna admit it)
it wasn't a huge birthday even though we could've made it huge, Soobin hyung prefers when we 5 could be together without anything big or anyone else.
"So.. who wants to play truth or dare!! "
Of course. Yeonjun has to ask.
everyone said they want to, except me but I'd be forced into it anyways
everyone plays, everyone has fun
until of course.
"Beomgyu! truth or dare? " Soobin asks
"hmm.. truth"
"boring as always" yeonjun snickers teasingly
"hey make it a good question!! " kai says and tae agrees.
curse you all.
"Well.. do you have a crush? "
everyone knows Beomgyu doesn't talk about love or people he likes, they even doubted he ever liked someone in his whole life, so even if this is considered a boring question to others, it definitely isn't for them.
should I tell the truth or not?, fuck it.
"Yeah, I do"
everyone is suddenly quiet.
shocked to be exact
"And you didn't tell me!! " soobin sulks pretending (?) to be sad
"I want my privacy thank you very much" I say, annoyed
"okay okay it's getting late we should go home" Tae and Kai say
"oh already? I'll send you guys away then, I'll be back!! " yeonjun says as he leaves with them

now it's just me and Soobin
oh
and his mark.
as Soobin was about to speak, his chest suddenly felt itchy, he realized
"Wait! I think I got my mark! "
my heart drops.
as he exposes his chest to see it, my heart officially breaks
"it's a star mark!! " he says happily
no, my heart is shattered, 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘰𝘰𝘯 𝘣𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘦'𝘴 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘴, 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦'𝘴 𝘯𝘰 𝘶𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦.
"congratulations!!, sorry I really have to go my mom will scold me!! " I leave hurrying
"hey wait a second ! let me send you off! "
"sorry next time! "
"hey!! "
i already left, and the pieces of my heart remained there.

"This can't be real, there's no way, I curse this damned universe!! "
my mark, is a star, just like soobin's,the Soobin who wants a wife and kids, the Soobin who calls me his brother, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘰𝘰𝘣𝘪𝘯 𝘸𝘩𝘰𝘮 𝘪 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦.
