"What is this?" Jeonghan frowned as he stared his shirtless self in the mirror. He had just taken his morning shower and the first thing he saw was an unknown tattoo like thing on his right shoulder.

Jeonghan was confused. A tattoo on his shoulder? Abruptly? And he didn't even know? How's that possible?

But what made him more anxious was the fact that the thing looked really familiar. He just couldn't recall where had he seen it.

"Jeonghan?" Joshua stepped into his room, "You-" He frowned as he walked closer, "When did you get a tattoo?"

Jeonghan turned around to look at the younger, "I don't know. It appeared here out of nowhere. And I feel like I've seen this somewhere."

Joshua gasped as his eyes widened, "Because we have!"

"Where?"

"Isn't it-" Joshua gulped, "Remeber when Seokmin and Seungcheol had organised a pool party for Dino's birthday? Doesn't Seungcheol has the exact same thing on his right shoulder too? He said it was his soulmate mark."

Jeonghan scrunched his brows, "Shut up, it's not that."

"It is."

"I'll get it removed today itself." Jeonghan wore his shirt, "A mere tattoo doesn't define someone's destiny. I'll get a laser treatment."

"Do you really think that those lasers can defeat the play of fate?" Joshua raised a brow.

"And what if they do?" Jeonghan retorted, "Then you'll stop believing these old customs right?"

"Jeonghan don't do this. It's definitely given by the Moon Goddess. You can't defy her decision." Joshua held his arm.

"Yeah? Moon Goddess has a lot of other work other than dropping random tattoos on random people." Jeonghan rolled his eyes, "What if I've this mark? Will I start loving Seungcheol like his soulmate did? No right? Let me get it removed before anyone else sees it. And you? Keep your mouth sealed."

"Huh." Joshua sighed, "I'll come with you. Let's see how you fight against destiny."

"Shut up." Jeonghan grabbed his jacket as both of them walked out of the mansion after dodging their father's interrogation. They got into their car and drove to the desired place.

"You didn't sleep for most of last night either, right?" Joshua asked as he sat on the passenger's seat.

"What? Who told you?" Jeonghan shrugged.

"You still think you can hide your problems with me?" Joshua chuckled bitterly.

"Joshua, I'm fine." Jeonghan nodded, "It's just a weakness of me that-"

"It's not a weakness, it's a-" Joshua paused, "Trauma. Why are you ignoring and battling with it alone?"

"Joshua, please calm down." Jeonghan tried to assure.
