The Broken String

Kagami's POV

The only other person who ever showed kindness to me was miserable. Marinette, the greatest friend anyone could ever hope for, was sad, miserable,heart broken even. I felt so bad for her. She's always there for me and when she needs me the most where was I? In Japan visiting my homophobic Aunt! I wish I was there to help and be her support but I wasn't. When the string broke she told me about it but I was too busy in Japan to text back. When I turned 16 I saw my string but wasn't happy about it. I find it funny how the Soulmate Strings originate from Japan yet I dislike them very much. I don't think it's fair that a measly string gets to decide who you love and spend forever with. Soulmates should be a special thing that only certain lucky people find, not something a string gives to you. We should decide on who we love, not what a string wants us to love. I say that yet when I turned 16 I was really hoping my string was connected to Marinette. Sadly it was not . Her string was attached to Adrien while mine was attached to some stranger I don't even know. Why did I hope Mari's string and mine were connected? Well it's because I know and care for her. I don't want to love some stranger. Also I may or may not love her. I love her as a friend of course but as a lover I don't know. I have never been in romantic love before so I don't even know what it is. But if my feelings towards her is romantic love then I'm not surprised. Who wouldn't love her? Oh wait I know who, Adrien doesn't love her that's why the string broke. It's not his fault though, like I said before a string can't just tell you who to love and be with. Even though I feel so bad for Marinette I have much respect towards him for not listening to the stupid string and following his heart. Although I wish he did it in a way where Mari's life wouldn't be put in danger. She could've died! Thank god she didn't but still my friend could've been dead. What's sad is that she will never be able to love again so if she does turn out to be my crush lover thing she will never love me back. Thanks a lot Adrien.
