Heechul and Hangeng (1/2)
Kyuhyun let Yesung drag him across the streets and before he knew it they were in front of a Chinese restaurant where one of the strings is leading.
“Kyuhyun... can I ask something?” Yesung stopped walking.
“Hmm?”
“About the strings... are they only intersecting you if the other party thinks he or she likes you?”
“No, I don’t think so... sometimes the string is tangled if Person A knows both Person B and Person C but Person B and Person C doesn’t know each other. Person A serves as a bridge for the two,” Kyuhyun explained.
Yesung nodded as they entered the Chinese restaurant, “That must be the situation with Heechul Hyung.”
‘Heechul Hyung? The one Yesung said to be pretty?’ Kyuhyun thought.
As they enter the vicinity, Yesung started looking for someone. Kyuhyun who got no idea what the person looks decided to use the string as the guide. He dragged Yesung to where the string leads and ends up in a table where a man is sitting, “Hangeng!”
“Yesung!” The man named Hangeng stood up and bowed to Yesung and Kyuhyun, “It is nice seeing you again.”
Kyuhyun couldn’t help but notice how the other got an accent while speaking Korean.
“Kyuhyun he is Hangeng, he is a real Chinese but he can speak Korean fluently now!” Yesung exclaimed proudly making Hangeng smile.
“Ni Hao ma? My name is Hangeng,” Hangeng said as he slightly bowed and offered a handshake with Kyuhyun.
“I’m fine, Kyuhyun,” Kyuhyun bowed too before shaking the other’s hand.
“Please sit down,” Hangeng said to the two, “I have already ordered but we need to wait for ten minutes more.”
Before Yesung can sit he suddenly stood up again, “Oh I need to call Heechul Hyung!”And went outside.

Kyuhyun and Hangeng
When Yesung already went outside Hangeng asked Kyuhyun, “Are you his destined one?”
Kyuhyun coughed harshly after hearing that, “N-No! You know about that thing too? I’m actually helping him find his destined one,” hiding his blush.
“Yes I do.” Hangeng nodded a little, “I really thought you are his destined one and his wish already came true.”
“Wish?” Kyuhyun asked, ‘This must be related with Donghae Hyung and Eunhyuk Hyung’s story.’
“Yes, wish.” Hangeng smiled, “You see I met Yesung in the airport. It is my first time in Korea and I don’t even know a little thing about Korean. I’m alone and I didn’t knew what to do and then suddenly Yesung came to me and greeted me in Chinese saying ‘Ni hao ma?’ so I concluded that he knew Chinese so I started talking in Mandarin really fast and then I just realized he can’t understand me when he suddenly looked so clueless and started panicking. So he uses sign and body languages that I surprisingly understood. We started talking using sign and body languages with each other even though we look crazy. He bought me to the airport staff that can speak Mandarin and helped me a lot. He is a really nice guy. He is my first Korean friend and my closest friend in my life.”
“What is Yesung doing in the airport?” Kyuhyun asked, “And what wish?”
“Oh the wish, you see Yesung though that the landing airplane is a shooting star that is why he followed it and he ended up in the airport. After that meeting and after I learned how to speak Korean we had a conversation again and he told me he followed the shooting star because he thought he can meet his destined one there, thus making his wish come true,” making Hangeng smile.
Kyuhyun nodded after hearing what Hangeng said, ‘That must be the reason why he is so enthusiastic when he learned that I can see the strings connecting you to your destined one.’
“Yesung must have sounded really desperate, even following an airplane he thought to be a shooting star and bothering you to help him but I couldn’t help thinking how pure and excited he must be, doing all the things he can to see his destined one,” Hangeng smiled, “Please continue helping him until he founds the one that he will love.”
Kyuhyun blushed, “Yes I’ll do.”
“Are you sure you are not his destined one?” Hangeng playfully asked, “I’m sure the two of you are perfect for each other.”
Kyuhyun grumbled a complained as his beat faster but he silently looked at the string attached to his pinkie leading outside, something inside him is hoping that it is Yesung, who is currently outside, that is his destined one.

Yesung and Heechul
“Hello? Hello? Heebongie?” Yesung said over the phone.
“Yah rabid dog what do you need?” Heechul asked with slight irritation.
“Can you come to the Chinese restaurant near the park? Please,” Yesung pleaded.
“And why would I?”
“Well... I want Hyung to meet someone! He is a Chinese and he is really interesting! This someone’s might be your destined one Hyung!” Yesung excitedly said.
Heechul’s laughter can be heard over the phone, “Haven’t you given up yet? Your destined will come to you even if you don’t do anything. You are even thinking of including me to your craziness.”
“But Hyung, we are both AB right? So we are both crazy!” Yesung grinned, “And I think I’ll be successful this time! Giving off effort won’t kill.”
“Tsk. My craziness is different from yours, but I guess we really are both crazy,” even though Yesung can’t see Heechul he can imagine the other smirking already, “What made you so confident that you will be successful this time? Remember the time we had a family reunion and you fell on the wishing fountain?”
Flashback (kid! Yesung and Heechul)
Heechul was silently sitting at a bench outside the restaurant, where their family was having a reunion, in front of a fountain.
Suddenly he felt little fingers creep into his philtrum, “Yesung... what are you doing?”
Yesung just smiled, “Nothing Hyung. What are you doing here Heebongie?”
“Nothing too...” Heechul was not really in the mood today that was why he chose to be outside rather than inside where he can throw sudden tantrums.
Yesung walked nearer the big fountain, “Hyung why are there coins in them? Are people wasting their money?”
Heechul rolled his eyes, “Ever heard of a wishing fountain? I think that is one.”
“Really?! Then if I throw a coin and wished something will it come true?” Yesung asked excitedly.
