"There was a time, when they were yours. Your stars. And I used to believe in them. I used to think they gave me strength because they belonged to you."
"But t-then it felt like even they left me. Like
even your stars abandoned me. I couldn't
believe in them anymore. Couldn't believe in
anything anymore."

"Don't go," he whispered, and now there was no strength in him just the boy who once waited under a tree for someone who never came. "Not this time. P-please. I don't think I c-can I don't think I can survive it again."
"Give me two months. That's all I'm asking for. Two months where I get to try. If there's something I lack, I'll fix it. If there's something you need, I'll be it. I promise I'll be better, even if it kills me to learn how. Just don't shut the door before we've even stepped inside."

"In her smile, he found hope.
In his presence, she found home."
