Ryujin's POV

"Why are you here Ryuddaeng?"Yeji asked

I chuckled

"Im here to find my soulmate"I replied

"Whats a soulmate?"the young one asked

How am I going to explain this to a child?

"Uhmmm well its like a bestfriend but more"I said

"Someone who knows you better than anyone else"I continued

I looked at the kid beside me

"Its someone who makes you a better person,someone who inspire you,a soulmate is someone who you want to carry with you forever"I said

She then stood up on the bench we're sitting on and held my face

"Does that make you my soulmate Ryuddaeng?"the kid asked with a smile on her face

I froze

"Sadly not"I said

Her smile faded

"Why not?"she asked

"We have different worlds Yeji..."I said

"The world of mortals and immortals"she whispered

I forced a smile

"Arent you happy youre friends with Ryuddaeng atleast?"I asked

"Im happy!"she said and hugged me making me chuckle
