【Her sweet and beautiful singing voice can lift the spirits of even the saddest souls, and she's also quite popular amongst everyone.】

A stretch of golden beach.
An expanse of azure sky and blue sea.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wnDQNu1t7
The sun has just dipped below the horizon of the glittering sea, and a cool breeze blows against our faces.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KL5VYeYjs
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckKBrmk7Ei
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCx2dSJE5S
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjH5iyJ9rhc
Behind me is a trail of footprints marking where i have just been, which will soon be overcome by the waves.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ErvTwDZOm
Suddenly, my foot strikes a hard object.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAjflK48mq
Looking down, i realized that it was a bottle with a yellow ribbon tied around it.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiyZJT64lN
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFNPZuqkXr
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmXFwdv0HY
The message in the bottle was sent back to sea once again. Suddenly, the sea was lit up in dazzling sparkles by the sunlight.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyoOS7dfknE
Pudding : "What are you thinking of?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8lApnSD7d
That soft but slightly aloof tone couldn't be more familiar.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtQfeNHft9
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..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlOqpGPH5d
Jello : "Heh heh~, i knew i would run into you today!"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbq7pVhnJz
Jello :
"Okay.. why don't you take it easy today? Tomorrow's itinerary is finished."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsO0daSqdKc
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjnzQ1q67y
He began to talk about the next week's journey.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqa8lBFXxV
Jello :
"What about the letter? Have you received it?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRYxqpy1Z6
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...
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AmIBhHAr4
Pudding : "Sorry, i did not."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAz0t84ZMD
Whenever I ask Pudding about it, the answer is always the same.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEC3RFPTT5t
Pudding :
"Right.. it's been a long time, I guess she's living happily then."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbUwRYb54J
Jello : "Uhm, yeah."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0boyC8htue
My favorite of Pudding's expressions is that feigned smile of his.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZgFYNPjUG
But I guess we should go back a few years to start the story.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqogR5eqWs
At that time, I had just gone from obscurity to full blown it-girl status.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhyAurGEKG
I was an overnight sensation.
Lucky for me, everyone had fallen for my songs, which made all the hard work worth it.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrI1A2G8wX
I gradually got used to that hectic life and the schedule Pudding made for me.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpsuTTdbAq
Cause i've always believed that, as long as I could go onstage, my music could put a smile on everyone's faces.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTV8rlF191
Puddind : "Are you tired?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4ClqodirC
Pudding handed a cup of tea to me after my autograph signing.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6EdaGq4cp
Jello :
"Um.. no, not tired at all~ I always get a blast of energy when i meet with my fans in public!"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAu4VYkV6i
I said with my face beaming.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNXspTL2Pk
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJe4MJzBi7
Pudding :
"I am your manager. I do everything with you in mind, don't force yourself."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2DsMujwTJ
Jello :
"Oh it's okay, don't worry! Their smiles are my wellsprings of life.."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtGM3zsqwR
I could hear just the slightest hint of a sigh in Pudding's voice, then I went and picked up a huge shopping bag.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyogxV7Kg2n
Pudding :
"These are gifts from the fans."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqd2tRrsaT
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."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGfeTaK4Bq
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTOgiAexiH
Although i haven't been there so often recently, i still wanted to give something to the children.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDfqGFXz2V
Pudding didn't say a single word, he just took out a green envelope from the bag.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdD0RZeV0J
Pudding :
"I don't think this is supposed to go to the orphanage."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75yMTsuP7d
And with that, Pudding turned around and walked out.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkFRBpomD8
I was left alone there, staring at the letter lying on the table.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kqUSSl8iT
The paper the words were written on looked pretty rough, and even the envelope was folded by hand.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SzbxYsKFl
On the front of the envelope was my name.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzYwVOmbif
It was scrawled in what looked like a kid's messy handwriting.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFNPufM4maq
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcdE4KrEbV
I opened it carefully.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78HjpdrOqO
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBSMOoQ7sP
Was this their address? I couldn't help thinking that way.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDvqtCkJn2
I stared blankly at the letter, but I can't seem to make heads or tails of it.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyrHdANhen
Pudding :
"So they want you to write back?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNYRII6PzZ
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..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UngRFLBJJ
Jello :
"A letter..? They want me, Jello, to write one?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoCwDGvhUL
In that instant, I couldn't understand one word of what Pudding was saying.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWImAna7F3L
"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?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAa0dSYufg
Pudding :
"They're exactly like all the other fans you see from the stage, aren't they?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vx2rCJ6MW
Jello : "Like a fan... meeting?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXXtC2DleJ
It was at that very moment that it hit me.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡetlyxWDWac
Jello : "Oh! I get it. Thanks, Pudding!"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEonDV1coO
That night, i picked up a pen and looked at the yellow-green stationery with every intention of writing to them.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DlsfMV5eu
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdeCjGa1Gq
So I put down the stationery, used a new piece of paper, and put my pen to good use.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcv3LR3fHX8
'This is Jello. How should I address you?'
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRhTt7PXcB
This was the first time I had such a strange feeling.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiyCW2JXDM
I didn't know if the person who would receive this letter would be able to feel my anticipation.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvxTJ3pgtC
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjHceHOoii
Now with this person, i can only communicate through letters.
It makes me feel nervous for absolutely no reason i could understand.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSv6NlKkBzR
I was in this mood when I handed the letter to Pudding.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8G9FvG0rdi
A few days later, I received another letter.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDnVz5F1rR
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqK49FRX7dO
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87mrxHqcSi
It resembled more like a note that people passed casually passed around, but it made its way into my heart without even trying.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5kDOoaToI
It felt like an inexplicable sense of intimacy had shortened the distance between our hearts.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tNWXzJwRh
I never knew that writing to someone could bring such intense pleasure.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzt5BIYk7og
I haven't really had a nice conversation with anyone since the death of my Master Attendant.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcrUWYp1Np
So this time i quickly wrote a reply and like last time, i gave it to Pudding.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPRcgraWgy
Pudding : "Any good news?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nbwwkwfQL
Jello :
"Yes! Heh heh~ The girl who wrote to Jello said she likes my music."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzqLcwYO5w
Pudding :
"Yes, I like it too."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTlkGb1afL
Pudding said calmly.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL9iyoyrGz
Oh.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdOFtEhdad
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15fxL8p9xk
It was as if i gained a new hope in my life from the letters Lacy sent me.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAk1opea7Q3
I began receiving them at the rate of about one every other day, the topics of conversation waxed increasingly routine with each letter.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dhztm9hAj
So often it feels like I'm dreaming, that i feel such familiarity with her yet i haven't known her for very long.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡND98ZvqDne
We confided in each other like girls whispering their secrets to one another, late into the night, during a slumber party.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH23BKx7T6T
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfrSO4pPQE
Lacy replies that Pudding is a reliable person, and a lovable klutz.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qJyG5C0dk
Of course i know Pudding is a reliable guy. But i don't think that 'klutz' is the right word to describe him.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4AooX46uV
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeH92uMSfY
But if i had to mention a shortcoming, it would be that he never smiles.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WFK5ezyj8
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPelJwV1dHv
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNLggF4Oja
Lacy always tells me the juicy details about Joel.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTJfINWb6B
It's as if she wants to reminisce her memories about him.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wNylpgeky
Unlike the coldly logical and rational Pudding, Joel is a raucus but gentle fool.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEaOYCu6u8o
At least that's how Lacy described him, even though i know that she's probably sweet on him.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWgUcxsKu3
After all, she talks about him so happily.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGm6USGwpa
Pudding :
"What are you giggling about?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFcaFpPTca
Pudding's voice is always so cool and indifferent.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwR54btxY1B
Jello : "I didn't giggle, Tee hee~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlrhRjmXQG
I don't know if it's just me, or if a faint smile actually cracked Pudding's lips.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31s4UTtJ7x
Pudding :
"Don't space off. Get ready, we need to get going."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TNS6yhT2E
Jello : "Okay!"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDt5odocOto
I practically flew out of my seat and couldn't hide the smile on my face.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnexOytCzpN
It turns out, this would be the last time i would ever receive a letter from Lacy.

"Pudding, where is the island that Lacy wants to go to?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypNRtNprfR
I leaned forward, resting my head in my hands.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgEbYvcyHh
With an air of serious earnestly, i asked Pudding to tell me what was on the agenda.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveuI59r7KD
Pudding :
"It's probably somewhere very far away."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCz7SkWrpvF
Jello :
"Pudding, you really don't know where it is? Jello is curious about it.."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWyIzrgbQf
Jello :
"So if you know, please tell me alright?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCXkRqjxwo
Pudding :
"Don't think too much about it, just take a break."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrSEQC1sU6l
Pudding :
"You still need to deal with the media."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRywDIUtRJl
Pudding closed his notebook and stood, immediately making a beeline for the exit.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMN0zvS12Y9
Jello : "Uhm..."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN60bKYlksU
Pudding has always been like that.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQReApauGGi
He finds excuses to avoid the questions that he doesn't want to answer.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzmtl9Brf5
"If you want to have no regrets, invite her to come listen to your songs. That would be the best gift of all."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbNpP7SLTY

688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mZqItQdGC

688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvJUzkiQAP
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡni8qHhyV1r
Has time really flashed by so quickly?
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXYGL6qMNX

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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOQU78b4Ss
I waited.. And yet there was no reply from Lacy.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3riMigN94
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTepYZfVYFb
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFHtWWTRLJ
In my mind, i could imagine the sweet and cute girl with a pretty smile that Lacy must be..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzB8CXs1dmb
Still, I couldn't find her by what i saw in my imagination alone.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYwNuA8lrH
The lights of the auditorium dimmed, and I could no longer see the people's faces.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yONWdyy1t

Jello was walking down the street by herself.
This was the first time she'd come here since her Master Attendant had passed.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4OdT2g7uW
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz8BO5dhGG6
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxqvV1qkRS
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.

Following the moonlight, she came to an open space set back a bit from the old road.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWfxp6t1TP
Even though it was surrounded by trees, the moon could still be seen through the branches and leaves.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvNQvLySq4
Jello really liked this spot, it was peaceful and beautiful.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bLxtIPZGo
She felt an urge to sing, like she had just stepped out onto an enormous stage.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmzcSoC713
The light of the moon was like a spotlight shining down her through the leaves.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhR628ua2Sj
In the future, she would often come here to this secret spot late at night to sing.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdjp5NBJ2r
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYvYgpjZha
The two children seemed to be whispering about something.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TwrfOhLNy
She was startled, but she couldn't just ignore them.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57NhmqyO3d
"Hello there. Isn't it awfully late for you to be out here? Your parents must be worried sick~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvKdkd7WTx
Child :
"We.. don't.. have.. a.. mom.. or.. a dad.."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFhwDAptD5
the brown-haired blue-eyed girl replied.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw98AjohCbq
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EWat8KZVE
All of a sudden the girl tugged on Jello's sleeve and asked..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSoTbopFEm
Child :
"Miss.. are you.. the one who.. has been.. singing here?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjICTpIcU3J
"Mmhm, that's me!"
Jello answered with a smile.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtoS1Lvwea
Child : "So it was you!~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu16hk48AqU
A rare smile appeared on the girl's face, and all the stars in the sky seemed to be sparkling in her eyes.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ug68LEZv2
The girl turned her hand, took the boy's hand, and then said in a comforting tone of voice..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZEkb6ug6Y
Child :
"Joel.. see.. i told you.. you'd see.. an angel.."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZblgdDNIP
The boy smiled shyly at the girl and nodded.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ioHjuNcn7
"I could.. hear.. your voice...i heard, your voice.. so clearly~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4xWybp8pX
Suddenly the girl became more agitated, and even her gentle voice became hoarse.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0kIkYU26E
Child :
"Is that how angel magic works? Can you help Joel speak?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrP4BCwCsx
Jello was completely taken aback.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrLzVuo1pJ
Jello : "Uh...No, that's not..."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjDprwXbPM
The stars in the girl's eyes went dark for a moment.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSEmmnEkxp
Child :
"The sisters, told me...God is, too busy, to hear our prayers.
So he sends angels to redeem us."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujit7apzYA
Child :
"So I waited and waited until the day I could clearly hear the sound."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sTsWnC32r
Jello : "I...I can't do things like that."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJvHYcbIc1
After listening to what I said the girl raised her head and asked, her voice even quieter..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KORab9h3y
Child : "Is my wish too big?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgMRNiz4Ca
Child :
"Then I don't need to be able to hear, just make Joel be able to speak. Can you do that?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGC1XHnNnhW
Jello : "I can't do anything like that."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHkDr9x4FZ
Jello waved her hands frantically.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VxOMtzId4
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."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Hjk4fbsWK
Jello :
"So keep on smiling together~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjkzpYfTGy
The girl stared at Jello, and her face softened, no longer on the verge of collapsing into sobs.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9lX3lQjJy
Jello :
"Oh! Right! I can sing for you! Maybe then an angel will come!"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Osq7RQspt
Jello said with a smile.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqbVcX5hmk
The wind murmured through the trees, and music flowed through the leaves.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkd30urAC3
"Joel, this really is angel magic."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQlLenlyFh
The girl watched Jello sing in the moonlight, reflecting off her hair as it fluttered in the wind.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zteWFfhXD
The boy, sitting shoulder to shoulder with the girl, silently nodded his head.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYT4BNlm8Eb
When he looked back to Jello, the moon seemed to be working its own magic.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0dkjusZ5q
There was faint glow stretching out slowly behind Jello.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizhUR1afyA
As if she were spreading a pair of wings..
