It's late at night and Richard just came home and he's drunk, he raise his voice to Cassandra saying "You little brat! Go to your room!'. Cassandra got scared because Richard's going to slap her face if she doesn't obey him.

Cassandra went up to her room, sit beside the window. Whenever she's sad, she only looks up to the sky and stare at the stars.

All the noise from Cassandra's house was being heard by their neighbor. His name is Alex.

Alex just moved in with her grandmother earlier. He's with his grandmother because his parents died in a car accident when he was still very young. He is tall, has brown hair, his eyes are oceanic blue color and his skin is manly dark (Hunk man skin color, imagining it? <3). He's the same age as Cassandra.

Alex was awakened by the noise that Richard have made, he walks into the window to see what's happening. He didn't saw anything but someone (ayiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhh!). He saw Cassandra by her window, staring at the stars and she's crying.

He looked at her and said "Why such beauty cries in a lovely night?". Cassandra was suprised to hear someone's voice, he followed the voice and saw Alex. She's in silence and didn't even answered Alex. Because of her silence, he said to Cassandra "Lovely stars isn't it? They only shine in the darkness, because in the morning we will never see them." while he was looking up to the stars. Cassandra said "What do you mean by that?" and Alex answered "Like in our life, we can never be stronger without sadness and people who doesn't appreciates us." Cassandra was shocked of what Alex have said and she was in silence again while looking at Alex that is staring at the stars. Unexpectedly Alex looked at her and she suddendly looked away. Then, Alex cut their conversation by saying "Goodnight beautiful and stop crying" and then went to bed again.

Cassandra was still in a point of blushing cheeks because of what have happened to her. Then, she looked again at the window where Alex was earlier, wipe her tears and went to bed.

It's morning and Cassandra went to the window, looked at Alex's window and saw a paper with something on it. It said on the paper "Hey beautiful, good morning. Smile!" A sudden feeling strikes her and she smiled.
