Soulmates... I never liked the idea of having one but we were all fated by the age of 18. A mark would magically appear onto our skin of the initials of our fated ones.
When I turned 18 I received 7 soul marks: K.SJ, M.YG, J.HS, K.NJ, P.JM, K.TH, J.JK
When we were to meet them it was said a powerful energy would surge through you as there mark turned from black to their very own colour.
I wasn't against the idea of soulmates, I just never wanted one. I learnt to be alone from a young age cause my parents were never around. They left me for the maids care.
I moved out when I turned 20 to an apartment in Seoul. I originally lived in Busan, but I wanted to get away. I got a job at a cafe and finished my studies in Seoul's top college. I majored in art, music and business for the sake of my parents.
I was basically born to carry on the business so I didn't have much purpose for my family except from the grades they liked to keep high.
I was top student for years running just so I never failed my parents expectations. I felt like a project trapped in an endless cycle that had no exit.
My parents always made clear that they wanted a boy so that he could make the company successful for once he grew, but when they found out they were having a girl they were devastated. Especially once they got told that they couldn't have more kids, which unfortunately left me as an only child.
I'm expected to run the company once my parents see fit to retire. They never let me get the job that I wanted in fear that I wouldn't take over the family company.
I always dreamed of being an idol who lived to see others happy as I performed in the arena... This obviously never happened due to my parents ego's and possessive behaviours.
I moved to Seoul to get away from all of the drama, fake smiles and stupid fake parents who think they can rule you 24/7, but I think I may of made my worse mistake.
...who knew I'd be moving closer to my soulmates...
