UUUAAAGGHHHH
MY MARKHYUCK HEARTU
Thank god for my ability.

Renjun concealed squeals as his eyes sparkled at the couples he had whipped together. Watching them be happy made him happy.

Now...

Renjun shifted his attention to the two boys in question.

Jeno and Jaemin were having a great time eating and talking. They seemed like great friends-- and future boyfriends. Renjun examined them closely as they held up their utensils to eat.

Again.

No strings or bands.

That's impossible.
I'm the one with the ability and even I have a band on my own finger.
How is it possible that these two don't have anything?

Renjun poked his food in thought.
It was strange.
He could see bands on anyone, even babies and dead people for a duration of time.
There was no way Jeno and Jaemin had already passed away since they were alive.

Reviewing, strings only formed when the awareness of feelings are noticed, and strings solidify and connect once the distance is enclosed and the feelings are apparent.

Yet, how was it possible that these two boys had no bands?

Renjun's head started to ache from all of his thinking. He decided it was time to get some answers.

The Chinese boy started to eat his food. It was great. Taeyong and Kun were great cooks.

Renjun munched cutely on his fried udon and rice.

I have to call Yixing-ge.

---

"How are you, Yixing-ge?"

"That's what I should be asking you, little one," the older chuckled.

"You got me there," Renjun sighed as Yixing  grinned on his phone screen.

"So why did you call me? Is everything going okay in Korea?"

"Well, it's about my ability..." Renjun said.

"Oh?" Yixing raised a brow.

Yixing was Renjun's cousin.
Aside from being a unicorn, the older was a popular idol in China and medical science enthusasist.

He was also the only one, besides Renjun's mother, who knew about the younger's ability.

Why?

It was because Renjun's mother and Yixing both saw what he did too.

"Babe?"

A familiar voice came from behind Yixing.

"Junmyeon-hyung, annyeonghasseo!" Renjun greeted.

"Is that Renjun, our kiddo?" Junmyeon popped his head up from behind Yixing.

"It's nice to see you hyung!" Renjun smiled at his cousin's boyfriend.

"Whaaaa! You've grown so much! You're more handsome than Lu--"

"Shut up!" Luhan busted in the room and smacked Junmyeon.

"OW-- SEHUNNIE, TAME YOUR BOYFRIEND!" Junmyeon shouted as Sehun joined them, facepalming.

"Lulu," Sehun put his arm around Luhan's waist. "How about we go eat, huh? I'll pay."

"Really?" Luhan cheered. "Yay!"

"Would you idiots shut up?!" Kris opened the door behind them with an annoyed face. "It sounds like there's WW4 going on in here!!"
