[dedicated to Noelle for giving us amazing books to read]
A month had passed since the last but their first midnight. The moon was again on the verge of leaving the sky. But yet it tried to do the little it can in the limited time span.
As they laid on the cold grass with a thousand stars around them, they felt nothing but a sense of familiarity. They still didn't know about each other but then they did know that they could trust each other. And this was because although their minds weren't still connected and their stories were still untold but then their hearts knew each other well enough to understand the unspoken words.
There was no one around and the atmosphere was completely quiet and calm he finally spoke up.
"I am sorry."
And then there was the silence again.
This was the beginning or rather the continuation of their incomplete journey; a journey which had everything that they would have ever desired for and things which just broke them into a million pieces and in a way that it cannot be fixed again. It was filled with love and hatred; beauty and dullness; life and death.
As her eyes were fixed on us, he couldn't remove his eyes from her little innocent face. She had the most perfect blue eyes which revealed the untold stories; her lips had the color of a rose; her cheeks were softer than the feather; and her soul was the purest.
"You are just like them."
"Sorry?"
"You are just like the stars. Beautiful."
And we couldn't help but shine a little brighter.
