"A conversation is like a mail,you reply with rhapsody"-CadeL04

Clarke and Edzell went along to the roads of the canteen.Usually,the canteen was full of students but this day was different.They were only a few students chatting."I wonder why only little people are here today..."Questioned Edzell.

Suddenly they heard a horn.

~HHOOOON~.

"What was that...?"Clarke questioned,scared out of her wits."Let's go find out"Edzell said while dragging Clarke in his arms.Clarke was steamed,she was being dragged by her crush,not only that,it was hand-in-hand contact.

She could be bursting like the 4th of July.

They passed a couple of students eating miraculously-weird looking homemade food.They headed towards the sound and there you have it,a Bazaar.They were balloons everywhere,students playing flutes.

And popcorn.

"Wow,it's so cool"Clarke announced,starts glittering around her eyes."Look over there!"Clarke said shouting."It's a Fried Banana Stall,my favorite traditional food!Let's go!"Clarke said.This time, it was Clarke who was dragging Edzell.

"Hello!"Announced a putrid small voice."Where did that voice come from...?"Asked Clarke."I don't know"Replied Edzell.Both of them turned their heads from east to south,finding where did the monotone small voice came from.

"OI!I'm here...!Idiot!"Said the voice."Seriously,where is this voice coming from..?"Clarke said again."Here!"Jumped a petite-fragile figure."Oh so your the voice!"Replied Edzell acsounticly."Duhh!!It's so heartbreaking,i'm self-couscious about my height y'know"

She was short as a teddy-bear,like the teddy bear Teddyson Peter Chu.

"What's your name?"Clarke questioned the teddy-bea-I MEAN,The student."I'm Phoebe Celestian Gomez,Nice to meet you"Bowed Phoebe."Nice to meet you,what form are you?"Asked Clarke."I'm a 2nd Year,from class 2T."Replied Phoebe.

"Oh,does that mean we have to call you senpai,even tough your height is-um....Bizarre...?".Said Edzell."Don't judge a book by it's cover."Clarke said to Edzell."Sorry,sorry"Edzell said while laughing.

"Anyway,what do you want to buy?"Said Phoebe."I want a Fried Banana with honey please."Said Clarke happily."I'll take the same as hers."Said Edzell."Okay!"Phoebe replied.

Both of them roamed the entire Bazaar,looking at every stall existent there.Suddenly,they've stumbled upon this miraculous-looking stall with semi-clothed walls titled "Lunar Moon God matchmaker."

"Let's go check it out!"Edzell said by,again,dragging Clarke along with his hands.Inside was very dark,with only two rows of tables and seats."Welcome!"Shrieked a voice."Hello!"Edzell said with Clarke in his arms,Blushing like a tomato with potato.

"Come one sit here."Said another voice.The two figures sat infront of Clarke and Edzell."Have you ever heard of the legend of the Red String Of Fate?"Said the 1stFigure."Yes!"Edzell,surprisingly replied.~How could he be very calm in this situation~Clarke thought while sweating.

{Lunar Moon God a.k.a Red string of fate}

"The Red String of Fate (: 姻缘红线; : 姻緣紅線; : Yīnyuán hóngxiàn), also referred to as the Red String of Marriage, and other variants, is an belief originating from According to this myth, the gods tie an invisible red cord around the ankles of those that are destined to meet one another in a certain situation or help each other in a certain way. Often, in Japanese and Korean culture, it is thought to be tied around the . According to Chinese legend, the deity in charge of "the red thread" is believed to be (月下老人), often abbreviated to Yuè Lǎo (月老), the old lunar matchmaker god, who is in charge of marriages.

The two people connected by the red thread are destined lovers, regardless of place, time, or circumstances. This magical cord may stretch or tangle, but never break. This myth is similar to the Western concept of or a destined flame."Said the 2ndfigure.

Here is the story:

One story featuring the red string of fate involves a young boy. Walking home one night, a young boy sees an old man (Yue Xia Lao) standing beneath the moonlight. The man explains to the boy that he is attached to his destined wife by a red thread. Yue Xia Lao shows the boy the young girl who is destined to be his wife. Being young and having no interest in having a wife, the young boy picks up a rock and throws it at the girl, running away. Many years later, when the boy has grown into a young man, his parents arrange a wedding for him. On the night of his wedding, his wife waits for him in their bedroom, with the traditional veil covering her face. Raising it, the man is delighted to find that his wife is one of the great beauties of his village. However, she wears an adornment on her eyebrow. He asks her why she wears it and she responds that when she was a young girl, a boy threw a rock at her that struck her, leaving a scar on her eyebrow. She self-consciously wears the adornment to cover it up. The woman is, in fact, the same young girl connected to the man by the red thread shown to him by Yue Xia Lao back in his childhood, showing that they were connected by the red string of fate.

So what exactly is  this stall's complishment?"Clarke said."It's about finding your soulmate"Edzell replied to Clarke."We sell charms that make you find your soulmate."Said the 1stfigure.

"Indeed,we guarantee that you will find your soulmate"Said the 2ndFigure."I'll buy some!"Both Clarke and Edzell announced.*Giggle *Giggle* *Giggle,both of the figure started giggling.Clarke and Edzell were steamed with embarrasment,while blushing red as a rafflesia flower.

Clarke and Edzell got over the awkwardness and bought the charms for each of them.Suddenly the school bell rang.And the students were going to their respective classes,and the Bazaar stalls were closed.

"I hope they end up together"Said a cheering voice."Indeed"Said a cold voice.

As Clarke and Edzell walked to their class,in the opposite direction,suddenly,they felt as if their left hands were pulled back behind.They've locked faces,and ignored it because of embarrassment.

What they didn't know is that Edzell left hand and Clarke's right hand were tied by a red string.No matter,if the string is tangled,strangelled,tied,they always remain in their fingers.Thanks to a certain Twins.

-It's not nice to bottle up your emotions,emotions are not potions,you should release them,be honest with your feelings.

And that's how Both of them can't sleep tonight.
