String Of Fate

2 hours before the auction--->

Jihoon has been crying in one of the back alleyways with no place to return home to, no place to sleep, he has been suffering this life for long now. His whole life had been perfect like a prince with no worries as the only heir of the top10 companies in Korean. Each of his wishes were always fullfilled by his parents. He had been treated like a treasure. But after his family's business went bankrupt and his parents disappeared, he had to struggle for his own life without getting any help from anyone. All the people he knows abandoned him and didn't help him at all. His father's friends, business partners...they only cared for him before because he was the heir and eventually left him when he had no more power. He had searched and worked in many jobs but one job didn't last long as he has been literally living a prince life and now he had to work, he can't endure the suffers. He got fired at every jobs. That's why he lost jobs and he's been crying with lost of hopes in the back alleyway.

Certain man's POV

I was pissed because tonight aution's main treasure item the "Queen Vase" turned out to be fake and I can't use that fake thing at the auction. So, I need to replace something that worths as the "Queen Vase". I feel so suffocated so I went outside and walked to back alleyways to think and get some air. There, I saw a boy crying while wrapping up his legs and burying his head into his knees. I slowly walk to him and call out to him.

"Hello. Young boy. Why are you crying?"

Then, he look up to me.

Damn!! What a pretty face!
Sharp pointed nose, Cherry like lips, Eyes sparkling like stars, his whole face doesn't have a spot to insult.

Then, an idea came to my mind. Maybe, I could use this little thing I found here as a replacement for tonight's auction. I just need to get his permission since humans can't be put up to auction without their will.

"Who are you?", he asks.

OhMyGod! Even his voice is beautiful!

"I am just a businesses man who gets along really well with everyone he works with", i said smilingly.

"Why are you crying my dear? Crying doesn't suit you. It will ruin your pretty face you know?"

"Haha", he laughs.

"What's the point of having a pretty face when your life is miserable and messed up as hell!", he shouts with tears in his eyes.

"Calm down young boy. I was just wondering if you could help me and it seems like you are just the perfect one to help me."

"How can a homeless and jobless person help you?", he asks laughingly.

"Well, will you be interested in someone who's going to save you from living on streets, keep you from doing those filthy jobs and will make you have a luxury life?"

As soon as I said those words, I saw his eyes lit up. 'I must grab this chance', I thought to myself.

"What I know for sure is that I have to pay a price for that. Isn't it?", he talked again after zoning out for sometime.

"Yes. But don't worry. It's not like you need to give your kidneys or something like that. You just need to love that person. That's all.", I smiled.

"Then, it's nothing different from giving your body to that person after all. But nevermind, my life will be over soon if I don't do anything now. Rather than starving to death, selling your body isn't so bad too. So, deal. I agree your offer.", he said while smirking.

I feel like I just achieved a big goal in my life and I know that this boy will break the auction's highest record "20million".

"Follow my lead young boy. You are going to have a new life soon."
