I looked up to the starry night, the stars reminded me of that one person that i loved so much, and the promises i've made with him.

If only i had one more chance, if only i could have saved him.

There were so many regrets, why didn't i meet him earlier? Why didn't i visit him everyday, why didn't i speak out those words to him...

I love him

Now that i've lost the right to cry for him. We were once so close to love, yet so far away, now that we've parted, i hope that he, from where i could not reach, could spread his wings and protect the things that he once loved so much.

If only i had one more chance, i would never let him go.

I recall meeting him one summer's day, under the tree, on that staircase back to the very beginning...

He was a strange man, he wore a mask, a mask with the appearance of a fox. He stared at me, as if i was some exotic creature.

I was 16 years old when i first met him

His name was Gin.

I was too young, too innocent to understand love at first sight.

Until the day of my 18th birthday...

That day was also the day of the summer festival.

i've known for sure that he was my first love.

Butterflies in my stomach, i've gathered my courage and told Gin my true feelings for him. I've decided to invite him to go to the festival with me.

The sun light shone upon his pale skin, he was glowing under the sun. As usual, he sat on the staircase, waiting for me.

I couldn't calm down. This is my only chance to confess my feelings to him.

"Um...Gin-san..?"i stuttered

"Yea..?" He responded, with the usual annoyance in his tone, yet warm and caring.

"Will...you...go to the summer festive tonight with me?" I blurted out, blushing

"Of course, that's what we did every year.."

I sighed in relief, i did it.

I heard Gin call my name. I turned around just to find him walking past that crowd of people in the festival towards me.

We had fun.

Until the start of the fireworks.

A child fell over and Gin was too benevolent to help him up. Only that the child was human.

Gin began to disappear.

I couldn't hold onto him

He was so close, yet so far

He called my name for the last time.

He hugged me for the first time.

But this time i couldn't hear it.

But this time i couldn't feel it.

All i could see was all the memories that we've shared.

He was gone.

Gin is gone.

At last, i still couldn't tell him my true feelings for him.
---

I've made a promise to him that we would meet again.

I did not tell him those words i longed to say.

I looked up to the starry night, a tear rolled down my cheek.

I could only speak these words to the stars, hoping that they will reach him.

Dear Gin, thanks for all the memories, I love you.
