"Fuck those stupid things called destiny. It's nothing but a mere joke that'll hurt you in any way"
Those were the only words that came out of my mouth while looking away from the calendar which screams for my upcoming birthday. Tomorrow, I'll turn 21. The age that I wouldn't dare to step on.
"Come on Yoongi. Being 21 will change your life. You might finally find the one for you. Your destined gem." Jin said teasingly.
"Yeah. Tomorrow, we will all gather in a big royal hall and I know it will be magical." Hoseok smiled.
Its all annoying. I don't want this shit. Its all messed up and unjust. I know its kinda rude but the royal system that we have in our country is so fucked up and stupid.
Call me rude and arrogant well whatever. Say what you want.
"It will be pure torture. Spitting on the queen's face will be the first thing that I'll do tomorrow if I burst into pure anger. Destiny my ass" I scoffed.
In our country, it is ruled by Queen Amythist IV. We live in the modern times but monarchy remains among the system. The royal family had been continuing a tradition that was passed generations to generations hundreds of years ago.
Its a matchmaking tradition where the royal gems tells who will be your destined lover is. Once the gems glow, it will begin its magic and once the glow fades, the name of your destined lover will be engraved on the gems.
Magical and amazing.
That's how people describe it. But if you ask me, it's all nothing but a huge stupidity. You may wonder why gems had the power to determine who you'll end up with someday, but its because there are 3 gems that we consider as gift from heavens.
The first gem, garnet balances everything good and evil. The second one is torquoise which gives people blessings and make the most out of the gifts from nature. And the most precious gem of all, the amythist. This gem is where memories, feelings and probably everything about a person is in. This gem holds it all. Without this gem, love, hatred, anger, sadness and other forms of emotions will never ever exist.
Once every ten years, the caste will host a matchmaking ceremony. Every men and women in their legal ages, 18 for women and 21 for men are obliged to join. You heard it right, obliged.
Anyone who defies the gems' choice, will receive an unbearable punishment of being a prisoner, spend the rest of your life in the dungeon or choose the option of being casted away from the country. It is harsh. Thats why I prefer finding your destiny in the right time and not like this.
"We will all go there tomorrow. And Yoongi, you should behave properly or we will kill you" Namjoon said threatening me.
"Shut it. I'll be going but don't expect me to have hearts on my eyes if I find my destined gem. As if..." I replied coldly.
"Here he goes again." Hoseok sighed.
"Okay, lets make a bet then..."
"If Yoongi falls for his destined gem, he will do our homeworks and cook our meals." Jin smirked.
What the hell are they up to now.
"Then, what if I don't?" I asked with a very unamused tone.
"If you keep your stone-like heart to take over you, then maybe we will do your homework and feed you. That should be fair" Namjoon suggested while tapping his finger on his desk.
I hate life
These bets are crap. I don't wanna be involved with these things but it sounds interesting and it'll make me hate my destined gem even more if I meet that person tomorrow.
"So Yoongi? The clock is ticking" Hoseok said impatiently. God just wait okay?
"Alright. I'm in" as if on cue, the bell rang and it's finally time to go home. We all fixed our things while the others hurriedly went home to prepare for the "big" event.
The four of us, Namjoon, Hoseok, Seokjin and I headed straight to our shared apartments and sat down the couch.
I looked at the time and it's already 7:41 PM. So I left the living room and went to my room.
I starred at the ceiling. I was lost in my own train of thoughts. I wondered how my destined gem would look like. I'm not excited but I just wonder.
Thinking about it stresses me out. Out of the 20 years in my life, this is the first time that I'm thinking about it. I would usually shrug these kinds of thoughts and put my "I dont give a fuck" kind of face. I didn't have someone special in my life anyway.
I know I'm cold and stubborn. It's who I am. But I do value the friendship that I have with those three dorks in the living room. I don't want to loose them since they have been there for me when my parents abandoned me. Tho they were destined lovers...
They broke up. The names carved in their gems faded like it never existed in the first place. They became distant from each other. And before I knew it, my mother left when I was 13 and my father gave me to Hoseok's father when I was 15. Good thing Hoseok's family accepted me without questions asked. They just opened their home for me and that's why Namjoon, Jin, and Hoseok were the only friends I have.
It was tough.
A teenage boy suffering from those things created me into this...
A guy who doesn't believe in true love, destiny and other forms of irrelevant shit.
I hate them
but
I want them back
"I wanna leave but the past
is telling me to stay"
