Ch. 8: Star Power (SUN)
Ster created a shooting star, and moved to speak his wish…-.
OO: "Don't…"
I tried to grab his hand, but I had no strength.
Ster: "Stop talking…"
But I wished to be with Ster. If he uses up his life to save me then…
OO: "That…won't make me happy."
Ster: "I said to just stop talking!"
Ster held me, as if to comfort me, then cried out his wish to the shooting star.
Ster will die.
OO: "No…!!"
You don't have to fix me…! Stop…
I couldn't keep my eyes open any longer, and I was about to completely slip into unconsciousness…
OO: "…?"
All of the pain vanished, and I felt my strength slowly starting to return.
I'm healed? Then…
OO: "Ster!"
However…
I opened my eyes, and there stood Ster, just as he had before.
Ster: "What's going on?"
OO: "Thank goodness…"
Though I no longer felt any pain, I still couldn't muster up enough strength to stand.
I held him in my gaze, checking over and over that he was still breathing.
OO: "I guess…my wish was granted."
Ster: "Wish? What did you wish for?"
OO: "To…always be with you Ster."
Ster: "You can't…I've never heard of such a wish."
As he said it, Ster looked between me and the Stardust Clock, which seemed a little bit brighter.
OO: "You said so yourself. That I could get any one wish granted. So I…"
Ster: "You…"
Ster gently embraced me.
Ster: "You…are an idiot."
He hugged me tightly as he spoke.
In that embrace, I could hear how loud his heart was pounding.
Ster: "OO. Thank you."
Then he gently pressed his lips to mine…
Thank goodness.
I closed my eyes, as if to confirm the warmth that I felt from him.
