Dreams are like Stars; they seem impossible to reach.
And yet, every night, we still look up at them, in hope, in aspiration, desiring to touch them someday.
The irony: the darker the night, the brighter the stars.
Thus, the worse the life, the stronger the dream.
This is the story of three girls, with stories of their own; and even better, with secrets of their own.
Each has dreams of their own that appear to be more and more impossible to achieve as the days go on.
Answering to a million circumstances, being tied down by a billion expectations and having been burdened by society's innumerable atrocities, will they be able to finish the race?
Or will they give in to their trials?
Will the Starlight shine bright enough to motivate them?
Read on, the story(I expect) every teenager sick of everything, will relate to...
