The moment we have all been waiting for 😏😎
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yoongi steps off his front porch. His mom watched him leave before going back inside.
"Good morning, Mr. Yoongi." The baker woman greets. Yoongi bows. "Good morning, Grandma." The old wrinkled woman smiles. "It's Friday, that means banana bread." She hands him a slice of banana bread to which Yoongi takes gratefully.
Eating his bread, Yoongi sees the alley way coming up. He passes it and continues on to school.
Throwing away his napkin, Yoongi waits for the light to turn green before crossing the street to the orphanage. He wanted to pass it, he planned to just change his routine but something caught his eye, a red rope laying on the ground.
"What is that?" He asked to no one in particular. He followed the string to his left pinky. Weird, I never tied this on my pinky. He thought. Being a curious 4 year old, he followed the string to its other side, that was when he spotted the boy, who had the other end tied to his pinky.
The boy jumped in excitement, his friend came back, he was worried when the cat just walked past without saying hi.
Yoongi got up close to the window, the boy didn't seem bothered by the string. Maybe he hasn't seen it yet. So lifting his left pinky, Yoongi shows the string to him. The boy follows but instead shows his right pinky in a mirrored effect.
Yoongi shakes his head. "No, the string. The string on your left!" He yelled. The boy just laughs, he can't hear him through the window. Yoongi watched as the boy's pacifier falls to the floor. "Can't you see it!? The string!" Yoongi yells one last time. The boy continues to follow Yoongi's motions. With a sigh, Yoongi gave up.
I'll just ask my teacher.
Walking inside his classroom, Yoongi greets his teacher before asking. "Can humans see the red string?"
His teacher smiled. I see you parents told you about the Red String. She thinks to herself.
"Well, Yoongi. No, humans cannot see the string. They don't have a soulmate like we hybrids do. That's what makes us different."
"Why not?" He asked.
"Well, cause they do not get one. We believe humans don't get one because of their savagery back in the day. See, a long time ago, hybrids found these humans and they were uncivilized. They were simple minded. Choi Chungson sailed the ocean in search of adventure and more land when he came across the humans. He said they didn't know how to talk and just grunted most of the time." She knew she couldn't explain the history in depth to a four year old so she kid it down the best she could.
"He noticed that they would just get together. He did not see any evidence of a Red String bond..."
"Can you see my Red String?" Yoongi interrupted.
"Of course not. Only you and your soulmate will see it."
"Then how did Choi know?"
So many questions. She thought. "There's a glow in the hybrid's eyes that flash for a split second when the String appears, but only for a moment. Choi did not see that. That is why Humans are what they are in our world."
"What are they?" Yoongi asked his last question.
"Nothing."
~~Later~~
After school Yoongi stares at his pinky as he makes his way to the orphanage. If Humans can't have a string, why does he?
That was all that went through his mind. Looking into the window, Yoongi sees the boy sitting inside a baby gate circle cage. The boy spots him too and starts jumping, making sure Yoongi sees him.
Yoongi waves in response before staring at the small sign hanging above the cage the boy was trapped in.
'SOLD'
