Sweetness of The Stars

Prologue

Don’t you just look up in the sky and wonder how many stars there are? I do all the time. There’s an endless amount of stars dispersed across the sky. When I was little I loved going out at night and looking at the stars that illuminate the dark sky. I believed that one day I could touch the stars and be one with them, but I knew I couldn't. My mom too, sitting besides me on my little bench in my backyard, knew I couldn't, but she didn't say that. Being a good Mom, she played along. She picked me up and made me soar through the sky and said “You're one step closer to soar up there for real!” She was a really good Mom, congrats to her for putting up with my weird dreams but that's only natural since I’m an abnormal kid. You might be thinking that every kid completely adores the sky, but nope. Just me. People I knew only saw stars as old things that we look at everyday. But just like people, stars are diverse. Some are larger and smaller. Some are dimmer and brighter. And some are damaged and brand new.

  In their own way stars are sweet, joyful, and important. But stars aren’t just important to me, they’re important to all of  us. I was told multiple times in elementary school that stars aren’t just stars, they’re proof of a couple’s relationship. Unlike any other elementary student, I took note of every single detail about the stars. I don’t know why but I just do. I took notes about how when a new star forms, that means a relationship between couples were formed. I don’t know about you but that sounds super cool! I want a star of my very own! Too bad that’s never going to happen. My name is Nazuni Jentley and I am a loser. I’m not a chick magnet or a ladies man. I’m a loser. But I don’t mind. Watching the stars from a distance is just enough for me.

 I just wish one day I'll be able to soar through my own star and say hello to it everyday.

If only…
