The 20-year-old Hana, with a red ribbon wrapped around her hair as it made her almost look like Snow White, and the 22-year-old Chanhee, with a red-checkered jacket as it compliments his skin-tone, are walking side-by-side as they exit out the amusement park. 

"That was so fun! I wanna go here after when you win that contest to celebrate." Hana exclaimed as she jumps out of joy that was running through her adrenaline, making Chanhee smile cheekily as he laughs at his female friend.

"You mean 'if' I win the contest. Who knows maybe someone has better vocals than me." Chanhee emphasized, looking at Hana who stopped jumping from joy and looked back at him as if he was crazy.

"You will win that contest! Chanhee, I got news flash for you." Hana said, blocking her male friend's path while her hands are on her waistline.

"Chanhee, you're like the most talented guy I have ever known. Don't put down your hopes on your skill. Goodness, I think it would have been better when Jacob and Kevin are here. They're better in raising hopes." Hana said, making Chanhee look at her as if she was crazy too.

"Are you out of your mind, Hana? You think those little brats would talk it out?" Hana just giggled at the older as she continued.

"Well at least those 'little brats' are proud enough that their 'little punk' is going to turn the other contestants into pathetic amateurs," Hana stated, decided to go with the flow of Chanhee's complaints while laughing at him.

"How do I even know this peasant?" Chanhee jokingly asked himself, referring to her.

"You just do, New." Hana smiled innocently at Chanhee who is now looking at her with much 'disgrace'.

"Can we just go now? I don't wanna talk about those idiots right now." Chanhee said, faking his tired voice and went around Hana as heads to his motor that was not far from where they were by the parking lot for all motorcycles with his female friend giggling while trailing behind.

As they stood in front of their vehicle, Chanhee got on the electrical figure and placed his helmet on his head. As he was about to give the other spare helmet to Hana, a cold breeze came not that strong and gave shivers to the two friends but strong enough that made the ribbon that was once wrapped around the female's hair blew away to mid-air.

"Oh no, My ribbon!" Hana exclaimed as she noticed her ribbon had gotten away from her head figure, looking terrified as she thought it would be lost as the wind let the red ribbon dance around the breezy air.

"Don't worry, I'll get it." The male friend said, getting off the cycle and gave the helmet that he was holding to the scared Hana to get back the ribbon.

"Wait a minute, hold on!" Chanhee stopped his tracks, returning as he took off his red-checkered jacket and wrapped around the shivering Hana and left to find the ribbon.

The red ribbon was still dancing around with the cold breeze until it got stuck on the street pole. When Chanhee spotted the ribbon, he sighed in relief as he head for the red ribbon strap and took it before it flies away. He retrieved himself back where he left his scared friend with the ribbon on his hand. Hana looked at his dear friend with a relieved smile.

"Stay still...." Chanhee murmured as he tied the ribbon around Hana's wavy medium hair, making the girl blush like crimson rose at his gentle gesture.

"There! You look utterly beautiful with that red ribbon." Chanhee smiled from ear to ear when he said that, leaving Hana surprised.

Hana wasn't surprised when Chanhee complimented that she looked utterly beautiful, well maybe she is because of it but that is not the point there. She's surprised that Chanhee stated the red ribbon. Deep down, Hana can't explain how delighted she is now that her male friend is her soulmate that she was looking for since day one. Chanhee got nervous when he sees that Hana isn't showing any reaction but a surprise that was written on her face.

"Give it up, Chanhee. You will never find your soulmate, and that is not the girl who is in front of you that you have been crushing on. Hana is not the one... " Chanhee thought, looking down pretending that she probably doesn't like the compliment and massaged his nape for support when deep down he is sad and disappointed at the same time when discovering that Hana is not his soulmate that he was looking for from 4 years until now.

"Uh... Nevermind. You probably are weirded out cause' of me. Let's just go, I will send-" Chanhee said, about to hop on the vehicle but was stopped when Hana held his forearm.

"C-can you repeat that?" Hana stuttered so much as if she is a robot with malfunctions in its system, leaving Chanhee who is now looking at her with confusion.

"Repeat what? You look utterly beautiful?" Hana shook her head that made Chanhee got more confused than ever.

"What do you want me to repeat then? How stupid Jacob and Kevin would be?" He jokingly asked and Hana shook her head once more.

"I-it's not that...."

"Then, what is it that you want me to repeat?" Hana turned her male friend's figure to face her properly then held both of his hands and asked.

"What is the color of my ribbon?" Chanhee looked at the red ribbon strap on top of her head and back at Hana.

"Uh..... Red? Why-" Chanhee answered and stopped mid-way when he finally understand why Hana wanted to repeat what he said.

"Wait... You-you can-..... But I thought....?" Chanhee looked at Hana with much surprise and confusion that were written in his eyes.

"I can see red too...." Hana said with a smile that shows relief, sincerity, and much gladness that she found her soulmate.

In a blink of an eye, the two founded soulmates' first initials on their wrists glowed bright red and a strong breeze came surrounding the two figures that made everything around them colorful again as the glowing red light and the initials had slowly vanished from their wrists. The strong windy breeze slowly vanished as well, everything is normal again. Chanhee and Hana looked at their surroundings seeing that everything is colorful, still holding each other, and back at each other in their eyes.
