A stretch of golden beach.
An expanse of azure sky and blue sea.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVNJwzSz11
The sun has just dipped below the horizon of the glittering sea, and a cool breeze blows against our faces.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFyymniZXP
I always feel so much better when i look out at a vista such as this.
It's as if I could walk out my door and see him.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbr57yU1757
It's a rare day off for me.
Ever since I became an idol, I haven't had even a moment of peace and quiet in what seems like forever.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaK8Ud4S5i
Walking along the edge of the waves, my feet are occasionally soaked by the waves as i take one step after another into what is like an expanse that just keeps on extending forward.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm53mAWqFra
Behind me is a trail of footprints marking where i have just been, which will soon be overcome by the waves.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4BVgwwiQC
Suddenly, my foot strikes a hard object.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3nzNFVT5M
Looking down, i realized that it was a bottle with a yellow ribbon tied around it.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgviwc4GqSZ
A slightly yellowed paper on which a hand-scrawled messaged is obscured by the golden sunlight peeking through the transparent bottle, but there is nothing else inside.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqKQ2waKWh
I don't know whose wishes were sent adrift across the sea to some far-off place. I only wish that it could float to the place where whoever sent it on its journey had wanted it to go.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKuKdoX9Co
The message in the bottle was sent back to sea once again. Suddenly, the sea was lit up in dazzling sparkles by the sunlight.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWkzIP8KFc
Pudding : "What are you thinking of?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPzx2JNXBx
That soft but slightly aloof tone couldn't be more familiar.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaWBdXuezn
In my heart of hearts, I wanted so much to see him for real but didn't know if I would, but the moment I turned around to see him I just smiled and said..
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZl7Ea6DBUr
Jello : "Heh heh~, i knew i would run into you today!"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFHlcI6brb
Jello :
"Okay.. why don't you take it easy today? Tomorrow's itinerary is finished."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmzN8jtkBR
Pudding pushed his sunglasses up and earnestly went about the business of foraging through the contents of the small notebook that had been lying in the inner pocket of his shirt.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68mo0KQiL6
He began to talk about the next week's journey.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqwadqMyYM
Jello :
"What about the letter? Have you received it?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzBM22Auph
As an idol, my activities hold a lot of weight.But listen, there's thing that's kept me from resting easy at night, and that is...
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpISSSqlff
Pudding : "Sorry, i did not."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9r2p8zilD
Whenever I ask Pudding about it, the answer is always the same.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYV4UyoFgh
Pudding :
"Right.. it's been a long time, I guess she's living happily then."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4xoqDmP2j
Jello : "Uhm, yeah."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRzRDRSEEE
My favorite of Pudding's expressions is that feigned smile of his.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NBmi4B9ps
But I guess we should go back a few years to start the story.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQVyrkmQ0q
At that time, I had just gone from obscurity to full blown it-girl status.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nGwr5C1Jw
I was an overnight sensation.
Lucky for me, everyone had fallen for my songs, which made all the hard work worth it.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsQ5AZ1BNV
I gradually got used to that hectic life and the schedule Pudding made for me.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNRIP9V640
Cause i've always believed that, as long as I could go onstage, my music could put a smile on everyone's faces.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfvKATZ3l2
Puddind : "Are you tired?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GAjjzCUc5
Pudding handed a cup of tea to me after my autograph signing.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfzMlHUue6
Jello :
"Um.. no, not tired at all~ I always get a blast of energy when i meet with my fans in public!"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaG96GBT1K
I said with my face beaming.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPp2h9RSCd
When i said this, Pudding's usual deadpan expression turned to a frown, which is the one emotion i could ever read from looking at his face hidden behind dark sunglasses.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOrrty9ORF
Pudding :
"I am your manager. I do everything with you in mind, don't force yourself."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDGpipS9k5
Jello :
"Oh it's okay, don't worry! Their smiles are my wellsprings of life.."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnNqUaUh4v
I could hear just the slightest hint of a sigh in Pudding's voice, then I went and picked up a huge shopping bag.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIHiqYODPc
Pudding :
"These are gifts from the fans."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoi16wMtnUg
Jello :
"That's fine, just donate them to the orphanage like you always do, and i'll keep those amazing songs coming for my fans."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HaHBK6rhb
When i was an up-and-coming singer, i often went to an orphanage in an old street with Pudding, where i would sing songs for the children.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbjIVLvbtv
Although i haven't been there so often recently, i still wanted to give something to the children.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmX7778jLeM
Pudding didn't say a single word, he just took out a green envelope from the bag.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcxGt9dwTK
Pudding :
"I don't think this is supposed to go to the orphanage."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwi2yW0NjxI
And with that, Pudding turned around and walked out.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujRKNscfPN
I was left alone there, staring at the letter lying on the table.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDWm4hfSNvV
The paper the words were written on looked pretty rough, and even the envelope was folded by hand.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHTdfQOz2D
On the front of the envelope was my name.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QxzoJgAjG
It was scrawled in what looked like a kid's messy handwriting.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0p1Ybp5sU
I would like to know what the humans thought of my existence. That's the reason why i was so curious about the contents of the letter.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzC1GNJRHq
I opened it carefully.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0m1L3DvII4
There were two papers inside.
One was an ordinary yellow-green paper with nothing written on it, and the other paper was torn with only an unknown address scrawled onto it.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWBOS3B4hK
Was this their address? I couldn't help thinking that way.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88IsQ11Vmc
I stared blankly at the letter, but I can't seem to make heads or tails of it.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSnDovEGKB
Pudding :
"So they want you to write back?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWz3iA1zdkR
Pudding came sneaking up behind me and i started to panic.
Maybe i was too into what i was doing to pay attention to anything else..
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGgWie726W
Jello :
"A letter..? They want me, Jello, to write one?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOIZSvchem
In that instant, I couldn't understand one word of what Pudding was saying.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxIUMI8VGg
"But they didn't say anything about it at all. Jello can't understand what the humans are thinking about, so what should i write to them?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHjQzfRRt8
Pudding :
"They're exactly like all the other fans you see from the stage, aren't they?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TQ4EObMgD
Jello : "Like a fan... meeting?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJ3HSpkcxV
It was at that very moment that it hit me.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhBCflXgNY
Jello : "Oh! I get it. Thanks, Pudding!"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtPNnwGA7dc
That night, i picked up a pen and looked at the yellow-green stationery with every intention of writing to them.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7IswOr1dj
Though i tried to think up of lots of captivating things that an idol should talk about with their fans, i couldn't make up my mind on what i should write.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxfbOt9k8pU
So I put down the stationery, used a new piece of paper, and put my pen to good use.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOW4RkXOcRB
'This is Jello. How should I address you?'
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAx6n0mSZ8
This was the first time I had such a strange feeling.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKd9hShDsH
I didn't know if the person who would receive this letter would be able to feel my anticipation.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMbXJbHm6YJ
I didn't even know what kind of expression would cross their face as they read my letter.
As an idol on the stage, i always see people smiling at me.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPsbe1FBnB
Now with this person, i can only communicate through letters.
It makes me feel nervous for absolutely no reason i could understand.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoyxlvCGSn
I was in this mood when I handed the letter to Pudding.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxQBWur0GC
A few days later, I received another letter.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5inVSibuV
They say their name is Lacy.
She has been in love with my music since the first time she heard it.
She says my songs bring her hope and inspiration because she feels the happiness in my music.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdoQCLoX08
The letter was only a few lines long, but it made me so happy i could jump for joy.
The letter wasn't formatted and remained unsigned.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU3kbfYpYqV
It resembled more like a note that people passed casually passed around, but it made its way into my heart without even trying.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DLkW1J1JP
It felt like an inexplicable sense of intimacy had shortened the distance between our hearts.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxOejomOXa
I never knew that writing to someone could bring such intense pleasure.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2gCX8v801
I haven't really had a nice conversation with anyone since the death of my Master Attendant.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wYFxQk5L1
So this time i quickly wrote a reply and like last time, i gave it to Pudding.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1OkRdsH9ZA
Pudding : "Any good news?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUbhaK1lsT
Jello :
"Yes! Heh heh~ The girl who wrote to Jello said she likes my music."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzU3unpXXo
Pudding :
"Yes, I like it too."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKXlNB2GMt
Pudding said calmly.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRWNviuQc1
Oh.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ygy7KZ7bL
I felt my cheeks flush at the words.
I realized that feeling of joy overflowing from the bottom of my heart was about, and because, of the person standing right in front of me.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0dEr75pJh
It was as if i gained a new hope in my life from the letters Lacy sent me.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47dP7JVLAb
I began receiving them at the rate of about one every other day, the topics of conversation waxed increasingly routine with each letter.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVgzKVYIKE
So often it feels like I'm dreaming, that i feel such familiarity with her yet i haven't known her for very long.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zOXAyQivv
We confided in each other like girls whispering their secrets to one another, late into the night, during a slumber party.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPht297LXo
I often complained to Lacey about the way that Pudding keeps blathering on about my schedule and reputation, but then he wouldn't allow me to see the children at the orphanage, or let me go back onstage when the audience yells 'Encore!' like I used to.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF40ngwNiqw
Lacy replies that Pudding is a reliable person, and a lovable klutz.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDn8HzQ9oF
Of course i know Pudding is a reliable guy. But i don't think that 'klutz' is the right word to describe him.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCmNT8wWCa
From the time i first met him to the time he became my manager, there was nothing he couldn't do.
He's so well organized.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CGLb4yEbM
But if i had to mention a shortcoming, it would be that he never smiles.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPZFFeAN9z
I've never seen Lacy.
But when i do, i would tell this intimate stranger so many things about my life that i normally couldn't tell anyone else.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uH5ZVPZaF
I guess Lacy thinks the same way, because she's told me so many things about herself, she told me what happened when she met her friend Joel for the first time, and how he disappeared so suddenly, only to meet up again a few years later.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjc1IytBdJX
Lacy always tells me the juicy details about Joel.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAv10WTZlA
It's as if she wants to reminisce her memories about him.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWGTJcqI23
Unlike the coldly logical and rational Pudding, Joel is a raucus but gentle fool.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtah01imXaL
At least that's how Lacy described him, even though i know that she's probably sweet on him.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrGNXBk4Ptp
After all, she talks about him so happily.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATC5a9a8Mf
Pudding :
"What are you giggling about?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqnNEft7GW
Pudding's voice is always so cool and indifferent.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zsRqw1s3J
Jello : "I didn't giggle, Tee hee~"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLTANiWm9Z
I don't know if it's just me, or if a faint smile actually cracked Pudding's lips.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZJACYZXcl
Pudding :
"Don't space off. Get ready, we need to get going."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QZRpkMOUC
Jello : "Okay!"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppRX84HMg2
I practically flew out of my seat and couldn't hide the smile on my face.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjdxe5nQXs
It turns out, this would be the last time i would ever receive a letter from Lacy.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAJoiQ5BWs

Jello :
"Pudding, where is the island that Lacy wants to go to?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pDYjD9yUl
I leaned forward, resting my head in my hands.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡip1iGsG13F
With an air of serious earnestly, i asked Pudding to tell me what was on the agenda.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeTeD8xESV
Pudding :
"It's probably somewhere very far away."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyBAH6UKA7
Jello :
"Pudding, you really don't know where it is? Jello is curious about it.."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSUMD8jVT4
Jello :
"So if you know, please tell me alright?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYLRN18eu4
Pudding :
"Don't think too much about it, just take a break."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GJ6zvrSlR
Pudding :
"You still need to deal with the media."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSRKoDiexn
Pudding closed his notebook and stood, immediately making a beeline for the exit.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSvgduVIU1L
Jello : "Uhm..."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBitt6a3nUJ
Pudding has always been like that.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOnmgtWvMT
He finds excuses to avoid the questions that he doesn't want to answer.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrteF7qG8L
"If you want to have no regrets, invite her to come listen to your songs. That would be the best gift of all."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5T5wuMgB4C
Jello : "Okay...?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWDJvsFZJO
I answered without thinking, startled as i was by Pudding suddenly coming back into the room.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4RKcyUy4N
Jello : "Re..regrets? Me..? Jello?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1cgPVleM3
I don't know why this night seemed longer than other nights.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0U4VpULAJk
I took out the yellow-green stationery that i buried deep inside the drawer. I don't know if it's because of the passage of time, but i noticed the paper already beginning to yellow in some places.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oLQdUEUIe
Has time really flashed by so quickly?
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4ErsMZxpp
Maybe it's because I'm a Food Soul that time really doesn't mean much to me.

I put the letter and a ticket for a concert that would be held in three days into the envelope, and then gave it to Pudding.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgM5t3uqtzn
I waited.. And yet there was no reply from Lacy.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60JDF3VtcL
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5goeMoulpH
Voices chanted as people swarmed underneath the elevated stage. I secretly peeked from behind the curtains, but then i realized i didn't know what Lacy looked like.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4vUKmfeus
In my mind, i could imagine the sweet and cute girl with a pretty smile that Lacy must be..
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoP0TIup8te
Still, I couldn't find her by what i saw in my imagination alone.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eP5i9ez3M
The lights of the auditorium dimmed, and I could no longer see the people's faces.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkDV82FUs1
The stage would be all lit up next.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UjCpihJJD
A shining, brilliant world that would soon belong to me.

"Hello everybody~ I am your Jello! Today, Jello's soft and sweet songs will put a smile on your face!"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQkC77t9Z4

511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvznC1PXav

511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwb8eKrnPo

But when all was said and done, Lacy was nowhere to be seen.

Jello was walking down the street by herself.
This was the first time she'd come here since her Master Attendant had passed.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkRl6cev2x
As a Food Soul, she couldn't stay too long in the same place; with so much more life time than human beings, she had made the choice to constantly change her living environment.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAIu5gcKKW
She just likes people and wanted to keep living among them, the way she had in the beginning when her Master Attendant was still alive.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcxP5zDm9U
The weathered buildings looked like they had already been abandoned, so it was surprising that there was still a road through the lush forest
In a way, it was like the trees were covering the road.
As she thought this, suddenly she let out a gleeful laugh.

Exploring this road, it was like she had discovered a whole new world.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8vLvmVyVS
Following the moonlight, she came to an open space set back a bit from the old road.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnHum8k6SJ
Even though it was surrounded by trees, the moon could still be seen through the branches and leaves.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLF4OHPvbm
Jello really liked this spot, it was peaceful and beautiful.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4Gw24tgwq
She felt an urge to sing, like she had just stepped out onto an enormous stage.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsrhX5DEeM
The light of the moon was like a spotlight shining down her through the leaves.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIB8kpR8NHD
In the future, she would often come here to this secret spot late at night to sing.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0s2LnmgsW
On this night as well, Jello came here to sing the same as usual.
The only thing different was that there were two children sitting in her normally deserted meadow.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6Zc9Xx0cB
The two children seemed to be whispering about something.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtUN6i78px
She was startled, but she couldn't just ignore them.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8GAO0bYTPH
"Hello there. Isn't it awfully late for you to be out here? Your parents must be worried sick~"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokR5EEShrh
Child :
"We.. don't.. have.. a.. mom.. or.. a dad.."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2X8yvkSEji
the brown-haired blue-eyed girl replied.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHSRGoxXmL
The way the girl spoke was a little awkward, but Jello still understood what she was saying.
On the other hand, the little blonde boy with blue eyes just sat there staring at her without saying a word.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5YFB3clPn
All of a sudden the girl tugged on Jello's sleeve and asked..
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqq4yHmaVUh
Child :
"Miss.. are you.. the one who.. has been.. singing here?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYscMiLy2S
"Mmhm, that's me!"
Jello answered with a smile.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK496u2aXf1
Child : "So it was you!~"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0q9UeXbbyO
A rare smile appeared on the girl's face, and all the stars in the sky seemed to be sparkling in her eyes.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kOn1f7xCP
The girl turned her hand, took the boy's hand, and then said in a comforting tone of voice..
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvV20FA689
Child :
"Joel.. see.. i told you.. you'd see.. an angel.."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4k8MdHYBN
The boy smiled shyly at the girl and nodded.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2XtHf4idR
"I could.. hear.. your voice...i heard, your voice.. so clearly~"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhz4mkXIi9U
Suddenly the girl became more agitated, and even her gentle voice became hoarse.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAz9vbrWGMG
Child :
"Is that how angel magic works? Can you help Joel speak?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijwB2kAZch
Jello was completely taken aback.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FS34MWwAc
Jello : "Uh...No, that's not..."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMxoWBEflo
The stars in the girl's eyes went dark for a moment.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtztIiqSow
Child :
"The sisters, told me...God is, too busy, to hear our prayers.
So he sends angels to redeem us."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5KqfsNz6C
Child :
"So I waited and waited until the day I could clearly hear the sound."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGImCvxIUG1
Jello : "I...I can't do things like that."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPQV30CpWM
After listening to what I said the girl raised her head and asked, her voice even quieter..
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS83Psa9KlN
Child : "Is my wish too big?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkDP3R3lg7
Child :
"Then I don't need to be able to hear, just make Joel be able to speak. Can you do that?"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlJkZ93vyB
Jello : "I can't do anything like that."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtDUeHh9yK
Jello waved her hands frantically.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2OWXifyHX
Jello :
"I don't know what you mean by [redeem], but all I can do is sing.
However, everything will be gone tomorrow,
tears, sorrows, whatever, all those things will be transformed into the night's stars."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNIxyuARYF
Jello :
"So keep on smiling together~"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sG2IP6uCq
The girl stared at Jello, and her face softened, no longer on the verge of collapsing into sobs.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKxETKFrna
Jello :
"Oh! Right! I can sing for you! Maybe then an angel will come!"
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOeGrpO7mMq
Jello said with a smile.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHeYJFoiHW
The wind murmured through the trees, and music flowed through the leaves.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9hLzVYy68
"Joel, this really is angel magic."
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyqiyBKWeu
The girl watched Jello sing in the moonlight, reflecting off her hair as it fluttered in the wind.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzVc0zwnHQ
The boy, sitting shoulder to shoulder with the girl, silently nodded his head.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPfSoRa7Wc
When he looked back to Jello, the moon seemed to be working its own magic.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4jaZZNX32
There was faint glow stretching out slowly behind Jello.
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXj1Wn3ThH
As if she were spreading a pair of wings..
511Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSz2qUc4qM
