the bluish night sky was filled with stars and trixie couldn't wait to make a wish if a shooting star had run there. it was cold and she could feel the darkness hugging her from behind as she stuck her eyes looking at helene.

the blonde haired girl was sat on a trunk, her elbows on her knees and her head on her hands, smiling as the wind was messing up the curls that were now spread all over her face.

"hello, mum" she said, as the glare of a shooting star broke in the sky.

trixie followed the light and when it disappeared, a veil of sadness appeared on her pale face.

"i don't even remember how many nights ago i lost you" she smiled. "can you remember when you used to spray your perfume all around my room when i had to go to sleep?" she asked, still looking at the sky.

"i can still feel that amazing smell behind me, as if you're here now with me" trixie started playing with her fingers. "i don't know if i already told you but i can't remember the sound of your voice and it makes me..." she sighed. "it makes me feel weird i believe, not remembering the sound of your voice wishing me sweet dreams"

trixie caressed her own cheek and closed her eyes. "mom i can still feel your figure putting your beautiful lipstick on your lips while i was sat on your bed, my feel couldn't even reach the ground"

the wind was telling so many stories as it was going through the fields all around her, the flowers were shaking and the sound of the nocturnal birds was now gone.

"oh mom look at my eyes, i can't hold my tears and it's been so many years of me sitting here in front of helene speaking to you and dad" a lonely tear was running on trixie's cheek.

"my chest is aching mom, i don't even know why, i got this heavy thing inside of me and i just want it to go away" she looked at the sky and smiled.

"can't you just come back? even for a second, just to feel your skin on mine, kissing my head to wish me a good life without you mom"

the blonde haired girl sighed. she knew she wasn't talking to anybody but there was a bit of hope inside her soul and luckily, her mother was actually listening to her from above the night clouds.

"okay" she smiled and looked to the ground. "it's my time to go i believe... what if you're not there and i always just talk to the night sky?" trixie looked at the stars, shook her head and turned around finding a pair of blue eyes hit by the light of the high moon.

"oh well... i am sorry i guess, for giving you this drama outside your RV" the blonde haired said, shrugging.

"you don't have to be sorry" the blue eyed woman was getting down the few stairs of her camper, crossing her arms as the coldness hit her body. "talking to your mother doesn't need an apologize"

"talking a dead one does... probably" trixie said, looking back at the night sky.

"don't you know? they say that dead people are not actually dead" katya smiled. "your mom is still with you trixie, she's just not on this planet anymore"

"and you think that it's great?" trixie asked, looking straight into her blue gems.

"i've never said that trixie i-"
