"춤추는 작은 까탈레나 (Red Sun)
나도 모르게 빠져 들어가
도도한 콧대 까탈레나 (Red Sun)
Jutti Meri Oye Hoi Hoi 홀려 들어가"

Jisoo sighed. Why does his soulmate listen to this song at least ten times a day ? The said soulmate usually listens to ballads and love songs, so why have they been listening to 'Catallena' so much in the past month ? It was driving him crazy. Late in the evening, early in the morning, his soulmate couldn't stop listening to it. The usual calm songs never annoyed him but if he had to hear 'Catallena' one more time, he would lose it.

But the boy decided to take revenge on his soulmate. Because you see soulmates are capable of hearing whatever song their other half is listening to, no matter the time of the day or the night. If he could listen to only one song during the day, so does his soulmate. He started listening to 'Sunday Morning' by Maroon Five everyday from the moment he woke up to the time he went to bed, except during classes of course. The song was driving his friends crazy and Seungcheol, one of his best friends, said that he would not be able to listen to that song without thinking about him. You could think he was growing tired of the song and he was, but as much as he would like to stop, his soulmate was not stopping either.

"Sunday morning, rain is falling
Steal some covers, share some skin
Clouds are shrouding us in moments unforgettable
You twist to fit the mold that I am in"

"Oh my god, please no."

"What's going on, hyung ?"

"My soulmate is listening to this 'Sunday Morning' song. Again !"

"They haven't stopped, didn't they ?"

"No. It started two weeks ago and it's driving me crazy."

"I'm sorry for you hyung."

"Thanks Hansol, but between Kwan's practice of 'Catallena' and this, I have headaches all the time."

"Maybe it's because of Kwan. If they heard 'Catallena' as much as we do, they might want to take revenge on you."

"It's not even my fault for that stupid song !"

"You should wear noise blocking headphones. I tried that before remembering that whatever song Kwan listens to, I have no choice but to listen."

"You have that ?"

"Yes. Take it as your birthday gift."

"My birthday was seven months ago."

Hansol just smiled at him and gave him the headphones. Seokmin then left the living room to go to his bedroom, he put the headphones on and finally his roommate's song was stopped.

But it took one whole week for his soulmate to stop his song.

"My soulmate finally stopped listening to that 'Catallena' song. I'm so happy."

"Does that mean no more 'Sunday Morning' for us ?"

"Yes ! Unless we go to a karaoke. I can now sing the whole song without the lyrics. It's inked in my memory forever."

Seokmin tensed up hearing the conversation. He turned around to be met with a bunch of students just laughing. He was not able to recognize the one talking about the two songs that will haunt him for the rest of his life. He was still hearing that laugh in his head one week later.
