Summary
Okay, soulmarks. Soulmates.
That’s a complicated thing in Bobby’s mind. Alex lost his soulmate when they were still little, and that was terrifyingly sad and kind of traumatizing. And Reggie says that he has a bad feeling about his, and refuses to talk about it. His grandma never had a soulmark, because she married Pops who is mute, so that kind of makes sense, but it is still odd. He learns from people at school that them and everyone they know have normal soulmarks, and the fact that everyone he knows has odd soulmarks is not normal.
He doesn’t quite know what to think of his when he will inevitably get it. He doesn’t even know if he wants one.
So, soulmarks? Soulmates?
He doesn’t even know what to think anymore.
