"The view here is really nice, isn't it?"

Fang turned his head to see someone walking towards him. Over the last few years, their rivalry had come to an end and they started to see each other as friends, and eventually, best friends.

He shook himself out of his reverIe and answered BoBoiBoy's question. "Yeah, it really is."

The dino-capped boy smiled at him as he reached him and turned his attention back to the stars. "The stars twinkle so brightly this near. It's always fascinating to watch them."

He also pointed the scene below. "Those lights below also seem like stars among the dark shade of the night. I always wished I could touch them and feel the little balls of light floating in my hands."
BoBoiBoy chuckled. "Don't get me wrong. I can replicate that scene using Solar, but I wanted to touch the real things."

Fang at his best friend as he babbled on about the different stars, which never failed to remind him of his Solar form.

"BoBoiBoy, breathe, okay? We have a lot of time to talk about stars," the shadow manipulator said, smiling almost reluctantly.

BoBoiBoy blushed and bowed his head a little. "Sorry, I got a little too excited."

Fang shook his head. "Come on, the others are probably waiting for us."

The shadow manipulator walked towards the door, his plans forgotten for the night.

"You know that there's no food here, right?"

"Yeah," Gopal said distractedly.

The elemental manipulator just stared at him and he avoided the gaze.

"So what brings you here, BoBoiBoy?" he asked instead.

The said person shrugged. "Just admiring the view. Every night, I come to the rooftop and gaze in the sky."

BoBoiBoy smiled at his longest friend. "It's always fascinating to see how those little balls of light shine so brightly in the dark."

He gestured on the grounds below. "They look like the sky sometimes, especially when it's really late in the evening. The balls of light cast a glow in the silhouette of the building. It reminds me of some action games where the hero jumps on the buildings at night as he tries to catch the villain."

"Which reminds me, Gopal. You and I still have a pending game."

"We do?" Gopal asked in confusion.

BoBoiBoy grinned. "Yeah. I lost a bet against you, remember?"

Gopal grinned back at him, truly appreciating the boy who accepted him for all his faults. "Come on. We still have to set the console. I WILL beat you before curfew."

The molecule manipulator dragged BoBoiBoy towards his room, his attention diverted for the night.

"I see no one bought your cookies again."

Yaya sniffed and wiped the tears from her eyes. "Yes, and I don't really know why. What's wrong with my cookies?"

BoBoiBoy scratched his head sheepishly. "I think I know why."

The gravity manipulator went on her knees. "Tell me, BoBoiBoy, please. " On his hesitant look, she added. "I won't GET offended, I promise. I just want to improve."

The dino-capped boy sighed. "Yaya, you must know that no one puts onions in cookies."

"I-I thought," Yaya sniffed. "My mom was the one who taught me how to bake them. I loved them so much. It was our own personal recipe. A-and I thought that the others would like them as well."
