“You wanted a happy ending, and you deserved it - so that is what you shall have.”

“Yo Rage.” Action greets his 7-year long best friend as the boy opened the front door to his home.

Rage returned the warm smile, “Hey, Action.” he says as he went out of his house, locking the door.

“So.. you ready to go?”

“Sure.”

After a 45-minute drive, they have finally reached their destination - Rage is completely clueless as to where his friend has taken him, but he just went along with whatever Action has planned.

They both stepped out of the car, and both are immediately greeted by the red-yellow skies, the scorching heat kissing their cheeks coming from the heart of the solar system - none other than the floating fireball in the sky, their sun. The cirrus clouds turning into the same color as the sky.

Both guys squinted their eyes to protect them from being completely blinded from the bright light ahead of them. Though, it is still an amazing scenery nonetheless.

It was only then that Rage realized where they are when Action started walking ahead of him. They had stopped at a really really small hill - Rage doesn't think he would even consider it a hill because of how small it is, it's just like a small bump 15 feet high up from the ground. It also isn't steep at all, making it so easy to climb or walk down on.

Beneath the small hill is a really big field of dandelions. Most areas of the field is occupied with fluffy balls of white seeds that came from the yellow dandelion flower itself. The plants danced along wherever the wind goes, some of the white mists flying off to various and random directions.

“Bro, you comin' or nah?” Action's voice from afar reached his ears, snapping him out of his deep analysation of the peaceful place. He noticed that Action is already swimming in the seas of white 'wishing flowers', or at least that is what him and his brother loved calling it when they were younger. Oh how much he misses that guy, he left them a little too soon - when they both promised each other that they would escape from this hellish sphere called Earth together.

He didn't keep his promise. And though, I am deeply upset, he deserves his happy ending.

“Yeah, wait for me!” Rage shouts back and rushes down to where his friend stood.

Rage plucked one of the dandelions from the field after what felt like forever of them just sitting in complete silence and staring the setting yellow-orange ball. The red-yellow skies now soon turned into pink and purple as the sun goes lower and lower.

“Rage.”

“Yeah?” he mutters, not looking to his right where Action sat.

“If you were to blow that dandelion you're holding right now, what would you wish for?” it was only then when he faced his friend after asking him that question.

He took a deep breath, looking away from Action's deep stare as he let it go. “I would wish to have my own happy ending. You know how my life is right now, everything is falling apart.”

He puts his gaze back to the sunset, “Two years ago, I lost my beloved little brother. A few months after that, I lost both my parents in a car crash. Then, my YouTube career is slowing down. I lost 20,000 subscribers in two months. I received so much hate for literally anything I do, that's why I decided to delete my channel.”

A tear unconsciously slipped from his brown eyes, as he continued speaking. “Being a YouTuber is all I wanted when I was younger, and I did. But I never expected things to turn this way.”

“I don't know why all of a sudden, my happy life has been destroyed in less than three years. Crazy, eh?” he let out a pained chuckle, looking at Action with dull and hollow eyes.

“A happy ending?”

“That is all what I wanted right now. Happiness. Even if it means it's the end.”

Silence.

Action didn't reply to his statement, and as Rage is about to turn around to face him, he felt a sharp pain on his stomach.

His eyes widen in shock.

Action has his head on his shoulder, his left hand holding on tightly to his small body, while the other held on to a sharp object deeply impaled in him.

His vision got blurrier and blurrier by the second that passes, blood endlessly flowing out of his abdomen where he is stabbed. His clothes definitely being soaked by the red fluid.

“A-Action..” he managed to say.

“Shh, it's okay. It's okay, Rage. Just close your eyes, take a deep breath and your struggles will all end soon. There will be absolutely no more for you to be worrying about.” He smiles genuinely at the boy in his arms, pressing a light kiss on his forehead as a sign of comfort and affection.

“You wanted a happy ending, and you deserved it - so that is what you shall have.”

Rage smiles through the pain, “T-thank.. you so mu-ch, Action..” he says as he choked on his own blood coming up on his throat.

“You are very welcome. Now close your eyes, honey. You're just going to a deep, deep sleep. Goodnight, sleep tight.” After those words slip out of his mouth, Rage's fluttering eyelids also closed permanently.
