Destined Love
Broken heart
Kale
DAMMIT! DAMMIT! DAMMIT! DAMMIT!
Kale was on the phone with her best friend.
Luna
So what if you come late.
Luna
It ain't the end of the world.
Kale
I already missed a class!
Luna
Ok look, Skip this one too, get ready and come the next hour it really isn't this hard.
Kale
But, I never skipped class before 😰😰😰
Luna
There's a first to everything, come on. Don't worry.
Kale
Luna? Are you alright? Your voice sounds tired?
Luna
Yup, I'm perfectly fine 😁
Kale
What is it? Who hurt you?
Luna
Hahahah chill girl you're the one who needs help now.
Soon, Luna's chuckles turned to sobs and on the phone her gasps for air could be heard.
Luna
Why do soulmates find it fun and easy to mess and hurt a girl's feeling?
Kale
Screw class, I'm coming right now, if you want let's skip class together.
Luna
Yeah, thanks I need to get away from here too.
Kale got her things and she only needed five minutes before getting out of her house to meet Luna.
And she got there seeing Luna waiting for her before the gates.
Luna
You're truly the best Kale.
Luna
~hugged her back burying her head on her friend's shoulder to prevent tears from coming out~
Kale
Come on, let's get out of here, we don't want that so called soulmate of yours to see you crying over that piece of sh*t of him.
Luna
Let's go to a cafe, it's been awhile.
Kale
So, what did your prince charming do?
Kale
Was he too close to his called female best friend or what?
Kale
Or, maybe wait, did he cancel your plans of going out tonight for some unkown reason.
Kale
Wait, wait, I got it! Don't you dare tell me he forgot that Today is your birthday!?
Kale
I'm gonna murder him🤬🤬🤬
Kale
L-luna...I'm sorry, I was just joking, of course he wouldn't, he's your soulmate for God sake he wouldn't forget your birthday.
Luna
~sobs~ If I could....return back to that moment....I wish....I could have told him......Why I wanted to see him....
Kale
Bestie, breathe, don't talk and don't explain anything, just breathe, I'm here.
Kale
~got a glass of water and was holding it waiting for Luna to breathe~
Luna was looking miserable. Her eyes were puffy and as red as her hair.
Kale
Come on, breathe slowly, nothing is more important than breathing.
Kale
~kissed her forehead hugging her head~
Kale
*He's going to really pay so much for every tear she shed because of him*
Luna
I really....loved him.
Luna
He said he loved me too.
Luna
But, he went and cheated on me with the same girl he told me was just a friend.
Kale
HE REALLY FREAKING DID THAT?!
Luna
Please, don't yell Kale.
Kale
Oh, sorry, baby girl, come here, I am your emotional support power bank for the day.
Kale
What? Do you have an idea on how to Bury a body and make it looks like it had been buried for years and wanna share it?
Kale
Too bad, if you were I was of course going to help.
Luna
Really, stop it with the jokes.
Kale
I'm not joking, I already have 4 plans which have a high chance of success.
Kale
Okay, okay! just joking.
Luna
Stop that thought too.
Kale
What thought? I was thinking of treating you to ice cream later.
Luna
No, you were thinking of another plan on murdering him, right?
Luna
I know you better than this.
Luna
Aaaah, hahaha it sounds silly now but...
Luna
I thought soulmates are something special but actually they're not.
Luna
I was chasing a guy that I didn't know for years, only to fall madly in love with him in a few months, then dating him.
Luna
To me it felt magical, but I forgot something important.
Kale
You're not a princess?
Luna
Excuse you, I AM a queen!
Luna
But, soulmates are humans, and humans lie, so there was no garantee that they would be different.
Kale
I wonder if it would be the same to me too.
Luna
Right, you still didn't meet your soulmate.
Luna
You can arrange it and meet up.
Kale
You know we can't, everytime I try to tell him my name or anything personal he doesn't seem to hear it.
Kale
But, eventually we will meet.
Drake Smith
Perfect, as always, Mark.
Drake Smith
Send someone to clean the mess.
Drake Smith
And follow me, there's a place I want to go to.
Healing heart wounds
Every human has a soulmate just as every human is a soulmate.
However, Fate is tricky, it doesn't mean it's going to give you a perfect partner as your soulmate.
It should break you, make you vulnerable, feeble both mentally and emotionally, till you know nothing about love.
Till you admit it to yourself that what you were living is absoulte hell.
Kale
~went upstairs to her room~
Kale
Why is there blood? I'm calling an ambulance, right now!
Luna
Wait, no! It's nothing, really.
Luna
See, I'm fine I was just talking to my soulmate.
Kale
You're gonna have all your blood out of your body for a soulmate?!
Kale
How many times have I told you to find another way?
Kale
~got bandages and started treating her cuts~
Luna
Heheh sorry for worrying you Kale, but you know the rules.
Luna
The only way my soulmate and I can communicate is by writing words on our bodies with something sharp that could cut through the skin.
Kale
And the rule is you will eventually meet, no need to talk, Oneday you will surely find each other and then you will just click.
Luna
But what if he likes someone else in his life instead of me?
Kale
Soulmates are soulmates, they are paired for a reason.
Luna
hehehehe you're right 😁!
Luna
But, sometimes I envy you, Kale.
Luna
Of course not in a bad way! 😳😳😳
Luna
I mean you can talk to your soulmate by thoughts, you don't even have to go through as much trouble and pain as me
Kale
Cheer up, Luna. I don't care about soulmates.
Kale
He can read my thoughts and butt in where he shouldn't. He's annoying and irritating.
Kale
And I don't care if I even get the chance to meet him or not.
Kale
~shrugged her shoulders~
Kale
He's such a pain in the-!
Kale's soulmate
💭*I'm such a pain in what?*💭
Kale
~her face suddenly reddened from embarrassment~
Kale
💭YOU ARE A PAIN IN THE A*S! GET IT OVER YOUR SKULL ALREADY!💭
Luna
Are you talking to him right now?
Kale
Uhh, sorry Luna, he just butted in again.
Luna
Told you I envy you! Why am I the only one that had the worst soulmate communication ability 😫😫😫
Kale
Why do I even have to have a soulmate in the first place?! 😫😫😫😫😫😫
Both the girls hugged each other before deciding to watch their favorite series.
Kale
~was looking at the window at class absent-mindedly~
Kale's soulmate
💭Yeah, b*tch💭
Kale
💭Do you think soulmates could be fake?💭
Kale's soulmate
💭Wait, wait, hold on there, Did you just open up a conversation with ME? I feel honored💭
Kale
💭Yeah, I just did. Deaf guy💭
Kale's soulmate
💭Why are you asking about this?💭
Kale's soulmate
💭What do you even mean by soulmates being fake?💭
Kale
💭just curious, nothing special.💭
Kale's soulmate
💭Mmmmm, so Zénith is your best friend's soulmate and he cheated on her.💭
Kale
💭Hey! How many times have I told you not to oversearch in my thoughts?💭
Kale's soulmate
💭It's fun💭
Kale's soulmate
💭So, why did you come to me?💭
Kale
💭uhh right, Do you think that my friend might end up with someone else other than him?💭
Kale's soulmate
💭I'm not a love expert but, even though it's possible that she doesn't find anyone else as a lover, it's better than staying with someone that cheated on you.💭
Kale's soulmate
💭I'm always rational💭
Kale's soulmate
💭 Because you thought it 💭
Teacher
Kale, I called you twice already.
Kale
Sorry, teacher. I got distracted.
Teacher
Well don't repeat it.
Kale's soulmate
💭Damn you too, I almost got in a car accident💭
Kale
💭Woah, sorry are you okay?💭
Kale's soulmate
💭Of course, if I'm not you think you'd be able to communicate with me?💭
Kale's soulmate
💭I'm always right, girl.💭
Drake Smith
Zénith, huuuh?
Drake Smith
I'm itching to meet him, let's go when you find everything about him.
Mark left his called boss alone.
Drake Smith
Zénith mmm, I'll teach you a lesson about who you're messing with.
Luna
Kale, let's find another table.
Kale
Why? But there's already an empty table right there.
Kale
~looked behind the girl and saw as nearby an empty table there was a couple.~
Luna
~held her tears not looking at them~
Luna
Co-come on, Kale, I Told you there was none.
Kale
Ok, please search for a table.
Kale
💭I have my own business to do!💭
Kale called him, alerting some students around him as Kale walked towards him.
Kale sat down before the two.
Kale
How are you two lovebirds doing?
Kale
Well, congratulations.
Kale
But, Zénith, if you ever dare to come anywhere near Luna, I'm gonna show you real trouble.
Kale
And don't try contacting her, whether it's by the easy phony way or the bloody hard way.
Kale stood up and left a terrified Zénith behind with a confused girl in his arms, while she went searching to find Luna.
Luna
That's supposed to be my line.
Kale
Nothing just a warning.
Kale
I told you it was really just a warning, I didn't even punch that guy.
Kale
ok, let's eat, I'm hungry.
Kale
💭Right, Today is Luna's birthday. And that good for nothing Zénith made it her worst day ever💭
Kale
💭I wonder what I should do.
Should I make a cake to cheer her up or have a sleepover together?💭
Kale
What's with the sad face?
Kale
Is our birthday girl, not happy she finally turned 18?
Luna
ehh, right I forgot, I'm now 18.
Kale
💭I SWEAR I'M GONNA DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT GUY!💭
Kale
Let's go to an arcade together! You love arcades.
Luna
Thanks for the offer...but I'm a bit tired.
Kale
💭THAT GUY IS GONNA DIE TONIGHT!💭
Luna
But! you can go with others in our class, I'm sure they'd like to go to an arcade.
Kale
Mmmm, no, if you're not going it won't be as fun as with them.
Luna
I love you so much😭😭😭😭😭
Kale
Yeah, yeah, I know. Me too.
Suddenly Luna's smile disappeared.
Kale
What's with the sad face? You should be cheery and happy you're 18.
Luna
Kale, is she prettier than me?
Luna
Am I too ugly for him?
Kale
I don't care about the reasons he cheated on you for, but if he really cheated on you for that silly reason.
Kale
He truly doesn't deserve you.
Kale
And whatever fate says that you two are soulmates I'm always gonna prove it wrong.
Luna
Then why would he? 😢😢😢
Kale
Because they're boys. I don't know why he did it😒😒😒
Kale
But surely he's blind.
Kale
In my eyes you're way prettier than her.
Luna
Kale! I really can't live without you. 🥰🥰🥰
Kale
Then, let's go to the arcade.
Kale
💭I knew you wanted to go💭
After they finished classes that day, they both went to the arcade having the best time of the first one of them that turned 18.
Mark
Boss, That's the one.
Drake Smith
The one with the light grey hair?
Mark
Should I take care of it or....
Drake Smith
Good job, Mark.
They each were on a bike, waiting for Zénith that just entered the store to get out.
Zénith
~walked out of the store~
The two followed him with caution till they stopped him as they entered an empty alley.
Drake Smith
~stopped his bike in front of Zénith crossing his path~
Drake Smith
Your worst nightmare.
Zénith
Aaaaa! It hurts! please stop!
Another few drops of blood were splashed on the floor, leaving a dark light on the street.
Drake Smith
Now, what did we say about talking?
Drake with his fingers harshly grabbed Zénith's cheeks, making the boy whine more.
Drake Smith
That's your punishment.
Drake Smith
~gave a hard punch at his stomach~
Zénith's voice started becoming so low because of how numb his body became.
Mark
He's as good as dead, let's stop.
Drake Smith
Tch, just a little more.
Mark
Okay, but don't go too far.
Drake Smith
Don't worry, he'll get more of what he deserves. Nothing special.
Luna
This was the best time ever! Thank you so much bestie 💓!
Kale
~had an arm around Luna's shoulders~
Luna
~had her arm around Kale too~
The two best friends were walking even though it became late out of the arcade after playing non stop so many rounds.
They had a fantastic time together forgetting about the misery they just faced that morning.
Luna
huh? Why? This is the way back to none of our homes.
Kale
I know, come on, it's a surprise.
Kale
And look what I have!
Kale got from her bag a blindfold.
Kale
Yes way! Come on birthday girl, No surprise without blindfolds.
Luna
But, it's so embarrassing to go around with a blindfold!
Kale
What's more important? People's talking or surprise?
Kale
And next time don't be hesitant about the answer!
Luna
Hahhaaha if there's gonna be next time!
Luna put on the blindfold and Kale was guiding her till they arrived to the place.
They entered a coffee shop and it was when Kale took off the blindfold on Luna's eyes.
Luna
Huh? But, the place is so dark, I can see nothing here, Kale?
Suddenly all the lights turned on at the same time startling Luna.
And there were almost all the staff from the coffee shop around a big table surrounding what was on it to be a cake.
Kale
Luna, Happy birthday.
It was Luna's favourite coffee shop. So the surprise was really such a surprise.
Even Luna and Kale's parents were there and a few of Luna's friends.
Luna
Thanks, everyone! 😍😍😍☺☺☺
Luna
This is the best surprise ever! 🤗🤗🤗
And the group then continued to have such a good time.
Till.....The next morning.
Hospital visit
The next morning things returned back to normal and the emotional state of Luna returned to being stable again.
Or at least to how much normal she was pretending to be.
They say, soulmates can feel each other's presence no matter how far they are.
Even though they still don't know who they are.
That's why, When fate makes them meet in the most ironic way, they both just know that they are soulmates.
They don't know how or why, and they don't have any certain scientific proof, but their hearts beat and their pupils grow a little bit bigger.
Because they found their soulmate.
And Luna, was having a strong feeling that her soulmate was in danger.
She couldn't sleep at night, as she was thinking about how to silence the noise both inside her mind and heart.
Luna
~was playing with something sharp in her hand, hesitant if she should start the conversation with him or not~
Kale came from nowhere and Luna hid the sharp tool quickly.
Luna
Kale, you came late today too.
Kale
Shut it, no I didn't!
Kale
Today, you unusually came early.
The two girls were talking and into one of their normal conversation before suddenly someone appeared at the door of the classroom making a huge fuzz.
Kale
Huh? What do you want---!?
Luna
~stood up violently at the scene~
Clara
Why did you do that to him?
Kale was furious but she knew she needed to cool down since the girl that she was talking to is none other than
So, if Kale isn't calm, a bloody war would happen.
Luna
Hey! What do you think you're doing?!
Clara
I thought you loved Zénith Luna!
Kale
Don't drag her into this! What do you want, Clara!!!!?
Clara
Why did you do what you did to Zénith last night?
Clara
He's now in th hospital because of you.
Clara
He lost consciousness and for a minute we thought he was going to die or go into a long coma.
Clara
He's all broken and...and....
Clara was mad and angry, but also she was hurting.
Her tears fell as she continued to utter more words as time passed.
Luna
Hey, Clara are you alright?
Luna
What do you mean Zénith could have died?
Luna
What are you talking about?!
Kale
I did nothing to him!
Luna
~put a hand on Kale to calm her down~
Clara
Yesterday in front of him you were threatening him, to show him trouble.
Kale
Thank you very much for repeating things.
Kale
And I did that for a damn good reason.
Kale
AND IT IS THAT HE DAMN CHEATED ON MY FRIEND WITH YOU!!!
Luna
....Kale, calm down don't yell please.
Kale
~looked at Luna before looking away accepting her suggestion~
Luna
Now, Clara, please calm down and explain everything from the start.
Luna was patient, and it was a bit too odd for her to be.
Maybe it was because she was concerned about her soulmate and maybe it was because her gut feeling turned to be right which made her feel a little bit guilty of shutting it off.
Clara
I'm going to see him, right now, he's still in the hospital.
Clara
The hospital told us he got in an accident and his life used to be in danger.
Kale
And how does that connect to me genuis? 😒😒😒🙄🙄🙄
Clara
~sent her hateful glares~
Clara
What if you're the one who arranged the accident?
Luna
Okay, girls, it was just a small misunderstanding.
Luna
Clara, Kale was the whole time with me yesterday, from school till 10 at night.
Luna
I assure you, she wouldn't have time to do something as low like that.
Kale
Thanks for the support, Luna 🥲🥲🥲
Kale
I thought we were friends.
Luna
Kale, don't be sarcastic now.
Luna whispered these words to Kale.
Clara stormed off pissed and upset as Kale was returning more to her sarcastic mood more than the serious one.
Kale
Clara is crazy for certain.
Kale
Don't you think Luna?
Kale
I called you so many times. What are you thinking?
Luna
.....The truth...is I don't want you to get mad....
Kale
I'm starting to regret asking.
Kale
Not another word about that freak!
Kale
Why are you even supposed to care about that asshole in the first place 😡😡😡
Luna
I'm just worried that's all.
Luna
I had that feeling, my soulmate is dying.
Luna
And...I was...so stupid....not to see the signs....
Kale
Come on, that's not true.
Kale
It was just an accident,
Kale
Accidents happen you know and all that.
Luna
Now, is it really just an accident? 👀
Kale
I swear to God luna, I'm gonna have either a heart attack or a brain attack because of you.
Luna
Just for reassurance between besties.
Kale
How many times have I lied to you?
Luna
Remember that time when you told me that you were going to the store to buy a drink but you actually went to pick a fight with that girl🧐🧐🧐
Kale
Okay, can't we forget that one?
Luna
Naaah, a lie is a lie😚😚😚
Kale
Well, if the accident was really arranged by me.
Kale
I would have had Zénith breaking an arm and having a scar crossing his lips, besides him having a few bruises here and there on his face that you think is handsome and finally it would be really good to have his nose broken.
Luna
You're terrifying sometimes Kale 😱😱😱
Kale
And do you know why I want him to have a broken arm instead of a leg?
Kale
So, that he will have to come to school everyday with his angelic face that broke dozens of girls' hearts.
Luna
You're our favourite hero 💙
Luna
Kale, this time you don't have to wait for me after school, you can go straight home.
Kale
Why? What are you going to do?
Luna
I'm going....uhh....somewhere...
Kale
You're going to the hospital aren't you?
Luna
Huh? No! Why would I?
Luna
That's absolutely ridiculous!
Kale
Hahahha yeah, yeah, convince me tomorrow.
Luna
Let's suppose you're right....
Kale
Go straight to the point.
Luna
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASSSSE!
Kale
Nope nope nope noooope.
Luna
But, I'm so worried 😟😰😰😰😥😥😥😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😞😞😞😓😓😓🥺🥺🥺🥺
Kale
Don't pout, and don't give me puppy eyes.
Luna
Pleasssssssssssse 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Kale
Fine, stop being so kind for God's sake Luna.
Luna
You're gonna leave me alone?
Kale
I'm coming not gonna pass the opportunity to see what Karma did on Zénith.
Luna
And I thought you were coming to support me and defend me from Clara.
Kale
Naah, don't worry about her, she is all bark and no bite.
Luna
Says the one who got slapped by her just now.
Kale
Yeah, says the one who might change their mind about going with you
Luna was shivering not ready to knock on the door of Zénith hospital room.
Kale
Are we gonna stay the whole time in front of the door or what?
Luna
I need to be ready. Wait just another minute.
Kale
That's the fifth minute I gave you now.
Luna
You know what? Just you knock when I count to three.
Kale
~knocked on the door~
Luna
That wasn't three, Kale! How could you do it on purpose!
Kale
My fist slipped. my bad 😕😕😕
The door was opened by Clara.
Clara
What are you two doing here? You're not welcome.
Kale
Don't be ill tempered, I didn't come for you.
Luna
We came to check up on Zen.
Luna
Sorry, I meant Zénith.
Zénith
Isn't that Luna's voice?
Kale
Yeah! And Me too, patient cheater.
Zénith wasn't able to see who was in front of the door.
Before Kale barged her way in.
Clara
Hey! who gave you permission!
Luna
Please, you shouldn't yell in hospitals.
Kale
Right Clara please shut up shhhhh
Kale made a sign of zipping her lips to Clara.
Zénith
It's alright, babe, just calm down, no need to kick them out.
Clara
If it's okay with you then it's alright with me.
Clara
But, if they become too troublesome I'm kicking them out.
Kale
Yeah, please you can already start by getting out yourself.
Clara went and sat back on a chair that was by Zénith's left side.
While Luna took a seat that was in front of Clara making her by Zénith's right side.
And Kale chose to stay standing.
Luna
So, how are you feeling, Zen?
Zénith
I'm fine now, thanks for coming to see me Luna.
His left arm was broken and he tried to smile but it sounded like he was hurting.
Zénith
~put his right palm on Luna's balled hands~
Zénith
Really thanks, it means a lot.
Luna
It's....nothing really.
Kale
So, how did you get this injured?
Zénith
A car accident while I was coming out of a store.
Kale
But, you look really damaged, what happened to the driver?
Zénith
Huhh, I don't know, I don't remember clearly.
Clara
That driver was really such a reckless one! If a car accident made so damage on a person then it means the driver didn't deserve his licence.
Kale
And that's why you think I arranged the accident.
Luna
Okay, let's not go there again.
Kale looked clearly at Zénith and observed more his state and it was when she started asking and doubting.
Kale
How did you get that scar on your lips?
Zénith
When the car crushed some glass got on my face.
Kale
Mmmm and the bruises then? It looks like someone was punching you more than a car accident.
Zénith
No, it's from the accident too.
Zénith
even breaking my arm.
Clara
That must've hurt baby.
Kale
💭Wait that doesn't seem right💭
Kale
💭Something is off, really off. How could he get all those injuries from a car accident besides a store?💭
Kale's soulmate
💭Why are you thinking hard?💭
Kale
💭None of your business and don't look too deep in my thoughts💭
Kale's soulmate
💭Oi, I'm also pissed, so it would be best if you don't think too hard because it rings loud in my head💭
Kale
💭Sorry, sorry, I'm just thinking💭
Kale's soulmate
💭I didn't realise it Sherlock💭
Kale
Well, get better Zénith even though I don't hope you do.
Luna
~held a few chuckles~
Zénith
Thanks even though you're not welcome.
Kale
Come on, Luna, I'm going. If you want you can stay with them.
Luna
huh? No need I'll go too.
Luna stood up and she smiled politely at both Clara and Zénith.
Luna
I hope you get better Zen.
Kale and Luna left the hospital both in silence till Luna cut it.
Luna
So, Kale you can tell me what's wrong.
Luna
About earlier, silly.
Luna
You were asking way too many odd questions.
Kale
It's just not believable.
Kale
You can accuse me all you want Luna, I don't truly have any proof.
Luna
What are you talking about?
Kale
His injuries. All of them can't be just caused by a car accident.
Luna
...So what? What if it's identical to what you thought you want to do to him as a revenge.
Luna
If it's really not you, then it's just not you.
Luna
It must a coincidence.
Kale
It cannot be a coincidence.
Kale
He's hiding something.
Luna looked at Kale and for a minute she thought.
Luna
💭You didn't really want him to get hurt from the start, did you?💭
Luna
💭And you say I'm way too kind💭
Luna
And what do you think? You wouldn't go and ask him if you think it's just a coincidence.
At that moment, Luna's eyes met Kale's and she saw a flame that flickered in her eyes.
