What is reality?
That night, the girls did not know the answer to this question. They felt as if they were stuck in a beautiful nightmare from which they were never to wake up again. Everything around them was colorful, pleasant, and dangerous. Their carefree mood, made them ready to do anything.
They acted as if they were not themselves, and the young men accompanying them, completely lost their minds, complementing them in their craziness.
Who would have thought that Solbin, inexperienced with men, would sit a newly met guy on his lap, squeezing his cheeks?
The Shaman's mysterious candy, made everything possible that night, and the fun kept gaining momentum....
- You know... I've never kissed before. - The blonde giggled under her breath, and her gaze kept finding Jungkook's lips. - I don't even know what it feels like. Will you tell me?
The brunet smiled goofy.
- Why in words should I tell you about kissing? Wouldn't it be easier to apply practice?
Solbin shook her head charmingly.
- No... - She said in a childish voice, putting her hands to her cheeks. - I'm afraid. - She forcefully opened his mouth and pulled his tongue with her fingers. - It looks like a powerful maggot. - She looked at his mouth, and a smile appeared on her face. - Didn't you watch a horror movie about a witch who had a large, hideous maggot in her mouth instead of her tongue and choked people with it while kissing them?
Jungkook squirmed at those words.
- I watched something much worse... - Solbin opened her eyes wider. - A horror movie about a chick who had teeth in her clitoris. You don't want to know what the penises that approached her looked like.
The blonde wrinkled her nose, being disgusted by the description of the film. However, a moment later, she burst into a loud laugh.
- Such teeth in the vagina would be useful for my friend. She would have deprived half the men of their penises.
For several minutes, they both had a good laugh about it.
- You are not good.
- Why? She talks about sex all the time, so I like to make fun of her.
Jungkook squinted, carefully looking at one point.
- Do I see a purple unicorn?
Solbin looked back, getting the impression that all the colors were blending, yet she saw a purple spot on the ocean shore.
The girl reached out and pointed her finger in that direction. She leaned too hard as she fell onto the sand. She twisted onto her stomach and rested her chin on her hands, giggling at the sight of the purple stain.
The brunet lay down on top of her, causing her to fall face down in the sand.
- I want to sit on it," she said as she spit the grains out of her mouth.
- On what? - Jungkook played with his nose in her hair.
- On a unicorn.
Having on her back, a heavier twenty-pound guy, she waddled toward the purple spot.
- But you are strong...
Watching them, Ara, who had been kissing Jin intensely so far, tilted her head to the side.
- Don't you think my virgin friend works faster than me? - The twenty-six-year-old looked at her with loving eyes, having had enough of kisses.
- You are more aggressive," he replied, to which she smiled broadly. She squeezed his cheeks, looking adoringly at his lips.
- You have wonderful lips, I will kiss them until I die.
His eyes looked horrified as Ara attacked him again with kisses.
- You have kissed me more times in five minutes than all the girls I have dated so far.
The redhead furrowed her eyebrows.
- From now on you are mine," she announced to him in a warning voice. - I'm going to find a way to keep you by my side for the rest of your life.
Jin acted impulsively, so to save himself, he pushed the intrusive girl away from him.
- I'm running straight to Korea, crazy girl! - he yelled as he fled across the beach. She was not going to let him go and let herself go after him.
- I'll run after you even to the other end of the world, beauty!
Sitting on a chair, the shaman smiled at the sight of them. In her hand she was playing with the candy she had earlier treated the four young people with.
- This night will change everything.... you will thank me for the scenario I have prepared for you.
With this candy, she tied them together for life.... She loved to use her powers to watch how unknown people accidentally paired up.
She opened her notebook and chewed on her pen, contemplating how to further pull the story she had created with young people in mind, wanting to toy with their fate.
- Drama, or maybe fan fiction? Should I combine the two genres together? It will be funny and dramatic at the same time....

How could it be that only Solbin and Jungkook saw a purple unicorn in an ordinary man? A powerful, pot-bellied forty-year-old man dressed in a heather blouse ran away from the young men, who ran after him with their arms outstretched.
The blonde dropped her knees to the sand, looking tired.
- I wanted to sit him down so much," she said in a sad voice. - All my childhood I dreamed of meeting this beautiful creature.
- You wouldn't have noticed him if I hadn't shown you.
She looked at him grimly.
- So what if you didn't catch it?
- My head is spinning, I was unable to.
The brunet slumped his back on the sand, looking at the colorful sky with a smile on his face.
- This evening I got the impression that I was alive. I've never felt so good as to give a damn about all my worries and just enjoy the moment.
Solbin nodded her head.
- It's true. I am also able to do literally anything. - She sank her back on the sand next to him and fixed her gaze on his face. His smile was beautiful. He caused everything around him to become invisible to her.
It was already dusk, the party was still picking up in the distance, and they were on the beach, a dozen meters away.
- I feel like doing something crazy.
Jungkook watched her as she rose from the sand and walked closer to the ocean. He leaned on his elbows, watching as she took off her dress and walked directly into the water.
Dressed only in her underwear, she turned to face him and beckoned him to her with her finger.
She didn't have to wait long for his decision because he immediately rose from the sand and, taking off his clothes on the run, joined her.
They played together, teased each other, dived.... they even saw the same colorful fish and strange creatures swimming past them.
Solbin laughed throatily as Jungkook grabbed her around the waist and lifted her up. She wrapped her legs around his hips underwater, happy as ever.
- Somehow I feel perfect today. I think it's your company that affects me so much," she said boldly, not at all resembling the same girl she was with a sober mind.
- I wanted to say the same thing. I wish I had run into you earlier....
For a long moment, they looked into each other's eyes, hit by the waves. The blonde captured his wet face with her hands and leaned over his mouth.
- Can I finally stop being an innocent and experience the same as other girls? - He didn't answer, he simply lifted his lips, which she mused in the moonlight.
Solbin felt shivers of excitement run down her spine for the first time, stopping at the level of her neck. Finally, she could admit that kissing actually was fun.

Ara tugged at the boy, mercilessly holding him by the collar of his blouse. She positioned him in front of the wedding cake, grinning, watching how terrified he was.
- What are you doing? - His voice trembled, as the presence of the shamrock made him terribly anxious. - I recently met you, stupid woman. I'm not going to let myself be strangled for life.
- Didn't you hear what the shamans said? - She grabbed his chin and squeezed it tightly. - You must marry me now, otherwise our future will lie in ruins. We will both be left with nothing!
- I don't believe this nonsense. - The young man snorted under his breath. - She's a fraud! She is Korean and pretends to be a Thai Shaman.
The middle-aged woman tucked the notebook under her blouse, protecting it like her most important treasure. It was in it that she hid the magical story of the young people who became her pawns the moment they were treated to candy.
All their fates, now depended on her imagination.
- If you don't marry the woman of your life tonight, your destiny will change. You will have an accident, lose your handsome looks, your restaurant, and your home. Your whole family will turn away from you.
- And what else? My head will fall off? - Jin measured her with a disdainful gaze. - You are in collusion with this wild girl. I will never believe this nonsense.
Ara slapped him on the shoulder.
- She is a shaman! She sees our future!
- That's exactly right. In a moment a bird will pile on you," she warned him, however, the boy disregarded her words and ten seconds later there was a poop on his head.
He touched his hair with his hand in disgust.
- Did you see! She is not joking! - The girl's voice sounded loudly as she embraced him around the waist and cuddled her face into his chest. - You're handsome, I'm a super chick, so we can be married and have beautiful children. It's better than living on the street!
The twenty-six-year-old pushed her away.
- I'd rather lose everything than get married to you. We spent several hours together, and I'm mentally tired.
The shaman watched them with amusement in her eyes. She knew that eventually, the boy would agree, since this was her story.
- If you leave here now and leave her alone, you will be hurt.
Jin didn't give a damn. Not only did he feel somehow strange tonight, but he also ended up with two crazy people.
He wanted to leave, but a parrot flew in from the side and pecked him on the cheek.
- What's going on here! - he yelled. Ara ran up to him and forcibly led him back to the wedding carriage.
- See? This is a curse! The shaman is telling the truth. Let's just take this wedding. He's not even real. Let's avoid an evil destiny.
The young man looked at her with tired eyes for a long moment, then shifted it to the middle-aged woman.
This is some kind of paranoia, he thought.
- Let it be. - He rolled his eyes. - Let it be over quickly. This is the first time I feel like running away from the party.
The woman smiled mysteriously.
- The wedding will end quickly, but your life together will last forever....

Solbin once again kissed Jungkook, sitting on top of him perched by the ocean's edge. She put her hand in his wet hair, unable to stop smiling.
- I didn't believe that this day would finally come....
- What do you mean? - The brunet ran his eyes over her face, in thought admiring her beauty.
- This is the day I first lost my head to someone.
Jungkook looked confused by her words.
- You've never been in a relationship before?
- Is that a bad thing? - She felt embarrassed. Maybe he thought it strange that a twenty-two-year-old girl had no experience with guys so far, but she would rather not be with anyone by force.
- You are wonderful, Solbin said. - He stroked her cheek, becoming increasingly enchanted by her. - You are special.
The girl looked at him with intimidated eyes.
- Don't you think I'm strange, since I would rather not be with anyone before?
- In general. This proves that you are independent. It's quite sexy.
The blonde felt like she was the heroine of a novel. It's almost unreal that she met someone so fantastic....
That night she was ready for any craziness.
- I want to be with you. - Her words were bold, she acted as if she was not herself. - I want this night to remain special until the very end.
- What do you have in mind?
She did not answer him. She simply stood up and pulled him by the hand, leading him to the hotel.
- I would rather not be an intruder among my colleagues anymore.
- Solbin...
She stopped mid-step and turned to face him.
- I'm interested in you, so help me stop being a laughingstock. I pretend everything is fine, but it hurts me when others whisper behind my back that there is something wrong with me if I avoid guys.
Jungkook put his hands around her face and looked into her eyes for a long moment.
- I'm so charmed by you that I'm unable to refuse you, even though I know it's inappropriate....
She closed her eyelids as he kissed the tip of her nose.
- So make me a woman tonight.
