"Call me when you arrive at the bus stop, okay?"

Minho nods at Hyunjin, his best friend and dance buddy, and walks out of the dance studio. That's another request of Hyunjin's, to call him after he leaves the studio to plan for the upcoming dance competition to be held next week in Vegas. It's like any other phone call Minho has had with him over the phone for the past four consecutive days, and it's just his best friend discussing about the contest, anxious that something might go wrong during, after, or before their performance.

Sometimes, it makes Minho wonder if Hyunjin ever gets physically tired, or just tired in general. He's the captain of the dance varsity team in university, and while he excels in dancing, he excels in academics, too. Hyunjin has been a class president of his homeroom class ever since he was in elementary, and to top it all off, he managed to be the top student in high school. He holds a lot of titles inside and outside school, and his journey in achieving those titles were nowhere near easy. He balances his time and is already a pro at it, because Hyunjin has always found the time for studying for finals, for dancing and being the good dance captain he is, and for going on dates with his boyfriend to continue his relationship.

The guy shows his charisma by being dedicated at his work. He just has that magical appeal, is perhaps every girl or boy's prince charming, and a lot of people look up to him as if he's some god who can grant their wishes - though, after getting Hyunjin to have a personal talk with Minho one day when they were both downing glass after glass of wine in the studio, Hyunjin simply tells his best friend that he had never gotten tired.

And that's another trait that makes girls and guys swoon over him. Hyunjin is passionate, hardworking and devoted to dancing and concentrated in making his parents proud, and he has never given up. While Minho tells him that Hwang Hyunjin is just Hwang Hyunjin, a guy who seems to have his whole life planned out already, Hyunjin just gives his older friend a look and tells him 'no'.

Minho thinks differently, though. His best friend already has everything at the age of nineteen - a dancing career, a beautiful house that probably costs more than Minho's goddamn life, loyal friends who have his back all the time, a family that supports him, and a loving soulmate.

Those are things that you have to work your ass for (except maybe the friends part), so if Minho ever gets upset about not having the great life Hyunjin has, then it's just because of his best friend's love life.

Despite being a huge fanboy and shipper of the two, Minho gets jealous a lot. He envies Hyunjin's cute relationship with Seungmin, who just happens to be a singer and a part-time waiter at Minho's favorite restaurant. Whenever Hyunjin isn't working, or isn't with Minho, he would always be found hanging out at Seungmin's house or is in his backyard for a picnic date. Minho often finds the two of them shooting each other short glances and eyeing each other with love evident in their eyes - and most of the time, they never shut up about one another. They're the sweetest couple Minho has ever seen and have the most romantic relationship ever, and seeing Hyunjin have a serious love life with Seungmin while focusing on his studies and career, Minho always ends up questioning himself how the hell he does it.

Minho sighs to himself and shakes his head. He wishes he knows who his soulmate is so that he can rub it on Hyunjin's face. Hyunjin has always teased him about his nonexistent love life and has always boasted about his relationship. Minho would then tell him to fuck off and go fuck Seungmin instead to laugh it all off, but in actuality, he really just wants to find his soulmate already and experience how it feels like to be loved.

He always wonders how he's going to find his other half. Every pair of soulmates share a soulmate power different from everyone else. They could either have a bad one or a good one, and Hyunjin and Seungmin just happened to have the latter.
