This is for you.
No matter who or where you are, or what your current situation may be, this is a story for you to enjoy. We're all just humans trying to survive in the harsh world, grasping onto the silver linings in attempt to find happiness when chaos and complications are hurled our way.
Sometimes life may hit you in the face with a bag of bricks and everything may kinda suck, so every once in a while we all need a moment of happy: just a small, seemingly insignificant moment that may end up meaning the moon, stars, and galaxy all in one.
The sky is always your companion, omnipresent in the vastness of our infinite world. For the lonesome, the moon is always a friend to confide in and that is something that we should never forget. Because even if you only realise it once in a blue moon, things will always, always look up.

We've always had a passionate love for the night sky; when the stars come alive and all the world's trivial matters melt away into the void of space and time. Many elements of this story are shared fragments of things we love, in hopes that perhaps you cherish them too.
Yilei (Eve_The_Spy) and I have carefully crafted this short story together in hopes to put a smile on your face and make things suck at least a little less for at least a little while. We're pretty proud of the end results, and hope you'll grow to love it just as much as we do.
This was largely inspired by plot-generator.co.uk. We needed a dollop of inspiration in our lives and that's exactly what we got. Hope you guys enjoy this short story!
Lots of love,
Annabeth x
