Broken Cupid

Description

Kyungsoo is a cupid. The most useless cupid ever existed. He hates humans, he’s lazy, he doesn’t even know how to aim his freaking bow. On his first task he did a grave mistake. He judged the human by it's cover, and now he pays the price. 

Foreword

Kyungsoo has fluffpops in a pink bowl doing what he does most of the day, lay around on his pink cloud house watching his fellow Cupids fly up and down to earth. Some of them made eye contact with the lazy one, they just awkwardly smile replying Kyungsoo’s innocent pure one. Kyungsoo doesn’t have a thread of care that he didn’t even realize his mother is standing with such devilish look on her just behind him. But today, Mrs. Do had just about enough of her son. She throws a rock that she picked up from earth straight to the back of her son’s head. It landed with quiet a bump, Kyungsoo’s actually pretty lucky he can’t die or else. Cupids still can feel pain though.

“Ow! Eomma! That- Y-Yah?! Where do you get things this hard?! Our world is almost made of cotton!”

“Maybe because you never bother to see the other world down there!”

She points straight to earth. Kyungsoo rolls his eyes, they have this conversation way too many times in his cupidy life time.

“Mom, why do you guys even bother joining Adam and eve’s children? They’ll just move on to another love a few days after some of them even recycle loves as if it’s nothing!”

“...Clearly you do not know anything” 

The middle aged woman, but still look very youthful, throws Kyungsoo’s untouched bow and arrow to her son’s face. He scoffs and turned around, refusing to even look his dust covered cupid equipments.

“No”

He simply answers, he knows already what his mother wants. But today she looks more concerned than all those other days and years.

“... Don’t you realized Kyungsoo-ah?”

“What is it?” He calmly responds as he puts another fluffpop in his mouth. She had to gather patience before she can even start. First she sits on the fluffy floor with her son. She grabs one of the feathers that’s sticking out of her son’s back.

“Wings... they’re the only things that differentiate us from humans”

“uh-huh, and?”

“Your wings, they’re so small Kyungsoo...”

Kyungsoo kept on snacking, until it hit him slowly. The infamous cupid’s pretty eyes largens. His mouth that was chewing fluffpops oh so deliciously stopped. Finally, he faced his mother, and she looks so concerned. What he had feared has arrived.

“...You have to unite a couple before the sun sets on the fifth day Kyungsoo... or not you’ll lose your wings... You know a cupid without wings are--”

“—The same as a human who has no love...”

He completes her mother’s heavy words.
