"What do you think when people see sky at night. The twinkling stars in the sky or the dark night sky?" asked Star when he and Sky were in front of his house.
"Both, because the sky is not beautiful without stars," replied Sky.

"Star, don't forget to call Mae if you want to go home. I'll pick it up later. I'm worried that you won't be able to get a taxi," said Mae. Star smiled and grabbed his mother's right hand.
"Mae, don't worry. Even if there is no taxi, Star can stay at Perth's condo." Star kissed his mother then grabbed his backpack.
"If your Father is still alive. Maybe you wouldn't have to work so hard," she whispered.
Since grade three Star has been abandoned by his father. The spoiled little star turned into a mature and independent, not because of desire but because of circumstances.

Star stopped as he passed Sky's house, exactly under the Sky's bedroom window. He hoped the owner of the room would greet him as usual. However, his hopes were dashed. Five minutes after he was there, the owner of the room did not open the window and greeted him.
"How long are you going to silence like this, Sky," says Star.
Star had just turned around when suddenly a round object hit his head. He turned to look for the source where it came from. Her tiny lips formed a beautiful curve when he saw Sky was already at the window smiling at him. Sky waved his hand, Star replied with the same thing then immediately took the phone from the bag.
To : Sky I'm working first, see you :)
From : Sky Take care. Don't forget about lunch. Let your cheeks become more puffy. Oh yeah, don't forget the chocolate. Sorry if it hit your head. I did it on purpose😅😅😅
Star lips pursed into a small frown as he stared at the empty bedroom window. Sky had hidden itself behind his bedroom window again.
Star breathed a sigh of relief, at least Sky was willing to greet him.
Since meeting Sky, Star hadn't even heard sky's voice yet. Text messages on the phone are their only way of communicating. Even though they sometimes spend time together, Sky doesn't even talk to him. Star wonders why, even though it looks weird, he feels warm every time he is with Sky. There is something that cannot be expressed in words.
Since his father left Star. His family moved house, the house built by his father was too big. Mae decided to sell the house because at that time Mae also did not have a permanent job. All for their survival. Even though his extended family actually intends to help with their living expenses. Mae refused, she chose to sell her house and start a small business. The florists is Mae's choice. Mae hobby of farming is channelled through a flower shop, which now has several branches. However, Star was reluctant to continue his mother's efforts. He chose to work as a wedding organiser. A dream from childhood that he shared with his father.

Sky looked at the deserted street, and a few minutes ago, someone he admired was standing there. He felt like an idiot. Let the cutie boy walk alone in the crowd. Coward. Maybe that's the right word for it. He will always be like this, he doesn't want other people to get hurt because of his actions like before. He was afraid that bad things would happen to Star if he was too open like he used to be when his mother was still around. Sky gasped when he heard the sound of his bedroom door opening. As fast as lightning, he threw himself on the bed and hid himself in the blanket.
"Sky, are you still sleeping or pretending to sleep? Mama cooks your favourite menu. Eat it while it's warm," Sky step-mom put the spaghetti on the table. Then left Sky room without further ado.
️Sky looked at the back of his step-mom till disappeared behind the door.He wanted to hug the woman who had replaced her mother. However, the wound seemed to be scratched again every time his eyes and his stepmom's eyes met. His mother's beautiful eyes were there. The eyes that made Sky are always overshadowed by guilt. The eyes that had always strengthened him, the eyes that he now always avoided. Not because he didn't like his stepmom, but because he was annoyed with himself.
Sky got out of bed and walked over to where the spaghetti was. It was enough ust to fill his stomach which had not been filled since last night. That's how when his Papa is at home. He always doesn't eat, his father doesn't allow his stepmom to bring food for him to the room.
"There's no need to spoil Sky like that, he's grown up now. If he's hungry, let him come down and eat." Said Sky Papa. Instead of following his Papa's words, Sky chose to starve instead of having dinner at the table with Papa. Since his mother died, the father and son never got along. They haven't even spoken to each other in the last two months. Sky is more often in his room, while his father prefers to keep himself busy in the office until late at night. Guilt haunts the two of them so that it is difficult for them to greet each other. The stepmom, as a new member of the family, feels pity every time she sees her husband standing in front of Sky's room. Sky papa stood there for a while then left with a sad face. She wanted to unite the father and son back. But is it possible? Because until this moment she did not know the problems that occurred between them. Sky and his father were not at home when the incident happened. Maybe that's why the two of them felt very guilty even for just rebuking each other like a family.
"Silence is the best choice, although sometimes it makes other people sad because of it."
