Prologue

Kim Younghoon came from a family who could see the strings of fate. However, such an ability was only granted to the first born child. His mother was also a first born child, so she educated him on why he saw floating strings. He learned that different colors had different meanings to them. He also learned that the darker the string's color was, the deeper the relationship was. However, there was one colored string that his mother couldn't explain due to not having seen it before in her lifetime.

Despite being given this power, he didn't believe in fate. He believed that nothing in life was set in stone and you didn't have to follow that one and only path.

"What are you staring at?" Younghoon looked up and saw a familiar little boy standing in front of him. "Strings." He knew he couldn't see them, but he wasn't one to lie to others. "You're weird." Younghoon's lip trembled and felt tears sting his eyes. He thought he was used to it, but it still hurt being an outcast when you're young. "I didn't mean to make you sad. I'm sorry." Younghoon felt arms wrap around him then received a pat on the head. "I'm Lee Juyeon! Who are you?" "Kim Younghoon." "You may be weird, but you seem interesting. Let's be friends." Younghoon looked down at his wrist and saw a peach string form between them. "Okay..."

His friendship with Juyeon had grew into an unbreakable bond as they grew up. Younghoon and Juyeon attended the same middle school and it was there that he encountered his red string. He didn't know who was at the other end until he met a boy named Choi Chanhee. However, he didn't want to believe that this person was the one and only person he could ever love.

In his time in middle school, he eventually started seeing violet strings, which made him shudder. He was surprised to have seen it one day around Juyeon's wrist connecting to a guy he had never spoken to before. He was happy with the fact that Juyeon had a red string connected to their new friend, Jaehyun. Unlike the peach and red strings, violet strings came and went like the wind.

Towards the middle of their high school days, Juyeon and Jaehyun had gotten together and Younghoon couldn't have been happier for them. He and Chanhee had also become closer, not to Younghoon's liking. Surprisingly, as if fate wanted them to stay together, they all ended up at the same college.
