S/N: First of all, I would like to say that everything here is pure fiction. I made it up, there will be inaccuracy as I really do not know how it works in real life. You'll see what I'm talking about later on. :) As usual, play media.
Also, I gotta thank Choco, once again. And Ate Toni. :)

It is such a wonderful night. There are no clouds and the stars can be seen clearly. And the moon? It’s shining brighter than usual.
I am back again to the place where I met Yue last night and spent dawn with her. I am currently sitting on one of the chairs, leaning my back on the table as support. I closed my eyes and breathed in deep. Come to think of it, seeing this scenery makes one really think that life isn’t really that bad.
I looked at my watch, 11:58 in the evening.
Where is Yue?
Should I text her already? No, she said she’ll be here. I don’t want to look annoying and clingy. I’ll just wait for her. For some reason, I trust her words.
“Waiting for me?” a voice from behind suddenly said. Yue. I smiled at her. “Did you doubt me?”
“No, I knew you’ll come. I have your number but I didn’t message you.” I told her with confidence.
“Number?” she asked, confused.
“Yeah, you gave me your number yesterday, right?”
“Oh, right. Right.” She answered. Her eyes looked uneasy.
“Is there any problem? Was it a mistake that you gave me your contact?” I asked. “I can delete it, if it makes you uncomfortable.”
“No, no. it’s okay.” She smiled. “So, how was your day?”
I studied her face for a second, making sure that everything is really good. She smiled at me, and it made me feel at ease. I took a deep breath.
“Same as usual, actually. But this time, I’m not as down as yesterday.” I told her.
“Really? Come on, tell me a story.”
“Well, it was really weird. My parents aren’t fighting, but sorrow can be seen on their faces. My mom was on the verge of tears. I wanted to comfort her, but my dad came to her and they went out. They didn’t even notice me.” I looked at her to see if she is till listening, she nodded her head.
I continued. “It was even weirder at work, nobody is paying attention to me. My boss didn’t even ask me for the report. I still finished it, though.” I stifled a sad laugh. “But I guess that is better, right? For them to just treat me as an invisible one. And my parents… I guess, it’s a good thing that they aren’t fighting. Maybe the reason why my mom’s crying is actually because of happy tears.”
Yue looked at me sadly. It’s the first time I saw her with an unhappy face.
I nudged her. “Hey, why are you looking at me like that? Don’t you think it’s a good thing? And besides, after out little chat about life, I guess I’m seeing it in a more positive way now.”
She looked at the sky. And I saw her eyes twinkle with the light the moon is shining towards her. She is so beautiful, she looks so unreal.
“You know,” she said. “I used to be like you, I used to think negatively. But someone helped me. In this same place, someone came to me when I was crying. She taught me how to be positive in spite of everything that life throws at me.” She looked down. “She helped me a lot. I treated her as an older sister, she did left after sometime though. As for me, I promised myself that I will, no matter what happens, help at least one person.”
