Brett was one when the soulmark started to appear on his skin.

it was one line of what seems to be a neat handwritting, carved to his left shoulder on a one fine day just like that. 

his mom noticed almost immediately when the words started to carved their way on his son's left shoulder making baby brett whines in annoyance and grab his left shoulder with his chubby baby fingers to stop the words to write itself on his skin.

that's how he knew that his soulmate would be one year younger than him.

later he'll know that his left shoulder is the place where the two things he loves the most in life will rest.  His Violin,  and his soulmate's hand,  or head if he's being clingy at the moment.

Brett was 4 when the words started to cleared  up. 
His mom curiously checked on his left shoulder every once in a while, even used a loop to check on his son's soulmark.

the line "can i sit here?" written on brett's left shoulder leaves no clue about his soulmate whereabout. 

not that he cared much anyway, he couldn't even read yet at that time.

he was just started to picked on his first violin lesson when his mom told him excitedly about the soulmark on his left shoulder. 

he only nodded. sleepy koala eyes blink confusedly at his mom's happy ranting about all of the prospects about his future soulmate.

later in life, he will find that this soulmark thingy was absolutely not helping on his journey towards finding his one true love.

people say "can i sit here?" all the time and each time somebody asked that, brett would flinch a bit, wondering,

if this could be the one..? 

fuck him and his elusive soulmark.  maybe life's just hate him.

not everyone's soulmark is as general as his soulmark though, apparently his mom's soulmark was so unique that the moment brett's father said "excuse me, you dropped your student Id, and, well,  didn't mean to pry or anything,  but do you happen to be my lily? " brett's mom knew right away that this is the owner of the words that carved on her right wrist.
In addition to the interesting detail of his mom's soulmark, his dad's "oh dear,  seems like i'm your lily then"  matched perfectly with his mom's soulmark.

even some of his friends got their soulmarks as clear as day. Ray's soulmark is written on his right ankle in a cute handwritting that says "i'm Sumina, pleasure to meet you"  nice, clear indicator of soulmates.

why can't his soulmates be a little more specific with their identity, maybe tell him their name at least?  mHHmmMmhm??

In reality Brett knows that he would manage with or without his soulmate. he just a little bit curious. And a bit lonely,  but everything was fine right now. 

Practicing 40 hrs a day was more important than finding his soulmate anyway, or making any friend for the matter.  duh. 

sound of his violin was enough to fill in the void in his life for now.
