【Jello is a young girl with a lot of heart and vitality.】

【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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC437OSPWUo
The sun has just dipped below the horizon of the glittering sea, and a cool breeze blows against our faces.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpI1bt3i76
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwKHhjVPgV
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQuBsq6eFo
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd10zJdSPeR
Behind me is a trail of footprints marking where i have just been, which will soon be overcome by the waves.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIdtDHPiBn
Suddenly, my foot strikes a hard object.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ67uT9SaSn
Looking down, i realized that it was a bottle with a yellow ribbon tied around it.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QwiXXCHNO
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSuboD4wGS
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiSGYE8wSN
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAc0lGuKw94
Pudding : "What are you thinking of?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKrGGhfNQS
That soft but slightly aloof tone couldn't be more familiar.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClPnWthUPM
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nv6kldDHN
Jello : "Heh heh~, i knew i would run into you today!"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YbOZVf7ri
Jello :
"Okay.. why don't you take it easy today? Tomorrow's itinerary is finished."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0zZlu7Vm8
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpcHgAjSsB
He began to talk about the next week's journey.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxMCDkyPIH
Jello :
"What about the letter? Have you received it?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQcls0SdhM
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0edbEyxrL
Pudding : "Sorry, i did not."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyJekqFrsv
Whenever I ask Pudding about it, the answer is always the same.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2ePreQxXm
Pudding :
"Right.. it's been a long time, I guess she's living happily then."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv15NF4LBq5
Jello : "Uhm, yeah."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2b8KpHkYRO
My favorite of Pudding's expressions is that feigned smile of his.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPtTxzjQhO
But I guess we should go back a few years to start the story.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8z74cNNFg
At that time, I had just gone from obscurity to full blown it-girl status.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNm9vRBj7P
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0dAWtvWQ2
I gradually got used to that hectic life and the schedule Pudding made for me.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65GDwTlrmR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRrQSrQyeE
Puddind : "Are you tired?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzP3dm6vJa
Pudding handed a cup of tea to me after my autograph signing.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9gd0ApDZN
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2o8CvaVefc
I said with my face beaming.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpN9KpGyEU
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEIwgriLge
Pudding :
"I am your manager. I do everything with you in mind, don't force yourself."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6tn61B6Pk
Jello :
"Oh it's okay, don't worry! Their smiles are my wellsprings of life.."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gsX43VPKd
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3yQBU01k5
Pudding :
"These are gifts from the fans."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeCnR1lxLm
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ827tmRmET
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDqppSFRey
Although i haven't been there so often recently, i still wanted to give something to the children.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQEfeDNA4T
Pudding didn't say a single word, he just took out a green envelope from the bag.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbDYL5DoaB
Pudding :
"I don't think this is supposed to go to the orphanage."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaAHzxzaYt
And with that, Pudding turned around and walked out.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtnaW5xyxu
I was left alone there, staring at the letter lying on the table.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNuMmQANv35
The paper the words were written on looked pretty rough, and even the envelope was folded by hand.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQ38UFz0lN
On the front of the envelope was my name.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Z33rpCtXm
It was scrawled in what looked like a kid's messy handwriting.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJG5NzBrVV
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyb4tmjxunO
I opened it carefully.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PUlhsZwdC
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7L8lBHcsep
Was this their address? I couldn't help thinking that way.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlFgvbduHs
I stared blankly at the letter, but I can't seem to make heads or tails of it.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUhurA6XiM
Pudding :
"So they want you to write back?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRajhl8tkH
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWtC8iZJ4m
Jello :
"A letter..? They want me, Jello, to write one?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OOhWH0Hys
In that instant, I couldn't understand one word of what Pudding was saying.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXVNqKJai6
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrTgdTWUGN
Pudding :
"They're exactly like all the other fans you see from the stage, aren't they?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBAZa3Wpm7
Jello : "Like a fan... meeting?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRPN2wkl59
It was at that very moment that it hit me.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwwmDqD7SO
Jello : "Oh! I get it. Thanks, Pudding!"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWRPX0ebzH
That night, i picked up a pen and looked at the yellow-green stationery with every intention of writing to them.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZS2l8w8NTJ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9grpxY9IzY
So I put down the stationery, used a new piece of paper, and put my pen to good use.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89i23WYp2D
'This is Jello. How should I address you?'
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXOk6kHI7q
This was the first time I had such a strange feeling.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5tADYTUiX
I didn't know if the person who would receive this letter would be able to feel my anticipation.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTG3yghtWW
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlVPzQcufVE
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzmVL25JOT
I was in this mood when I handed the letter to Pudding.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvc13YwZCPa
A few days later, I received another letter.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGUQ7CXRI6
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPLifSFiAy
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7p0jxNmFT
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13E8Nmf44t
It felt like an inexplicable sense of intimacy had shortened the distance between our hearts.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUfpwCAFVk
I never knew that writing to someone could bring such intense pleasure.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8TUML2vLX
I haven't really had a nice conversation with anyone since the death of my Master Attendant.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdbDhSgV2f
So this time i quickly wrote a reply and like last time, i gave it to Pudding.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡun72AhQ27r
Pudding : "Any good news?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EWtQJcB9m
Jello :
"Yes! Heh heh~ The girl who wrote to Jello said she likes my music."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpXCH17XaZ3
Pudding :
"Yes, I like it too."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmi48NVoBO9
Pudding said calmly.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkd008JFIjw
Oh.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56ZFPsca1O
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ795DS5CJ5d
It was as if i gained a new hope in my life from the letters Lacy sent me.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjY4IKwANeM
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbhiynruEH
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9m26VPOhLT
We confided in each other like girls whispering their secrets to one another, late into the night, during a slumber party.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcxEPLLsWx
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXpAxYpbuR
Lacy replies that Pudding is a reliable person, and a lovable klutz.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz92gz3U0pi
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcu7sx8Quxm
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNMbsQ1VIC
But if i had to mention a shortcoming, it would be that he never smiles.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡplfR08pjX9
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSMLvTv13S
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJsLXwrBlr
Lacy always tells me the juicy details about Joel.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzP9UvXypz
It's as if she wants to reminisce her memories about him.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoM6zmuDCFa
Unlike the coldly logical and rational Pudding, Joel is a raucus but gentle fool.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡau3QF5VGPW
At least that's how Lacy described him, even though i know that she's probably sweet on him.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAELkgd9MK
After all, she talks about him so happily.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kBN9XGbVG
Pudding :
"What are you giggling about?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1iY9fzc0N
Pudding's voice is always so cool and indifferent.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuK4RZZdlvg
Jello : "I didn't giggle, Tee hee~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwiM0ZYUSk
I don't know if it's just me, or if a faint smile actually cracked Pudding's lips.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXAmKyezsV
Pudding :
"Don't space off. Get ready, we need to get going."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡENw9MmYP1p
Jello : "Okay!"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvK50UaCfqV
I practically flew out of my seat and couldn't hide the smile on my face.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJg0Hy8rerP
It turns out, this would be the last time i would ever receive a letter from Lacy.

Jello :
"Pudding, where is the island that Lacy wants to go to?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWC6CbjLrG
I leaned forward, resting my head in my hands.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIZj9edlWY
With an air of serious earnestly, i asked Pudding to tell me what was on the agenda.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhJSku65Mx
Pudding :
"It's probably somewhere very far away."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcG55gqMUj4
Jello :
"Pudding, you really don't know where it is? Jello is curious about it.."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFZisAmcjr
Jello :
"So if you know, please tell me alright?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBWkOdFR9C
Pudding :
"Don't think too much about it, just take a break."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYYnEh5MV0
Pudding :
"You still need to deal with the media."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuvGgAjD8P
Pudding closed his notebook and stood, immediately making a beeline for the exit.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2d8FUdqCK
Jello : "Uhm..."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxaaFUfTLr
Pudding has always been like that.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSIoBqEz1z
He finds excuses to avoid the questions that he doesn't want to answer.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDId5okvKo1
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RAYVOA0A9
Jello : "Okay...?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdc457wQ5ls
I answered without thinking, startled as i was by Pudding suddenly coming back into the room.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwkPMoNzWl
Jello : "Re..regrets? Me..? Jello?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4w4sBEFYMJ
I don't know why this night seemed longer than other nights.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZZBgM9eq0
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUx70MxqqfF
Has time really flashed by so quickly?
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmx036U9n0r
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCmKSe1c3X
I waited.. And yet there was no reply from Lacy.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfATZBIoyD
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkb6lFabFva
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mCO4VRzak
In my mind, i could imagine the sweet and cute girl with a pretty smile that Lacy must be..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tdiUg3GN8
Still, I couldn't find her by what i saw in my imagination alone.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2BudEbieih
The lights of the auditorium dimmed, and I could no longer see the people's faces.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNV1ufAhDv2
The stage would be all lit up next.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTkymcWWSy
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!"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6odXtX3kA

688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggkvd69HQc

Eh? Was that... Jello's voice?
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3e5Vy2Gb7
The concert was a smash hit, just as planned.
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgX3MDU1DR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr59qZRNKVV
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ep5jFrUaf
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.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPbtpJoL5B
Following the moonlight, she came to an open space set back a bit from the old road.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzZBwp0fjt
Even though it was surrounded by trees, the moon could still be seen through the branches and leaves.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFJgqzYoP0
Jello really liked this spot, it was peaceful and beautiful.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41LSizqBt4
She felt an urge to sing, like she had just stepped out onto an enormous stage.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxq1dLCUWqK
The light of the moon was like a spotlight shining down her through the leaves.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZKs0BYTJZ
In the future, she would often come here to this secret spot late at night to sing.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQjvvRnVBS
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGdGzjOQNv
The two children seemed to be whispering about something.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsZw1Xqvpk
She was startled, but she couldn't just ignore them.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGC4QaHKKn7
"Hello there. Isn't it awfully late for you to be out here? Your parents must be worried sick~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwMbZKBGbO
Child :
"We.. don't.. have.. a.. mom.. or.. a dad.."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGRsTow6N6
the brown-haired blue-eyed girl replied.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzp5Hh79WG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSm6rlfZ78H
All of a sudden the girl tugged on Jello's sleeve and asked..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3A7UQf58HS
Child :
"Miss.. are you.. the one who.. has been.. singing here?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8JE8X9ioY
"Mmhm, that's me!"
Jello answered with a smile.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViT4m369tP
Child : "So it was you!~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAZ3rlwrCx
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBRQwf1QnM
The girl turned her hand, took the boy's hand, and then said in a comforting tone of voice..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQk3rnhUb8
Child :
"Joel.. see.. i told you.. you'd see.. an angel.."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBiWMbswJ3
The boy smiled shyly at the girl and nodded.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqdTvpza0o
"I could.. hear.. your voice...i heard, your voice.. so clearly~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvvMmCwmPhN
Suddenly the girl became more agitated, and even her gentle voice became hoarse.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjynw7oV6r
Child :
"Is that how angel magic works? Can you help Joel speak?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRjaIs2LJl
Jello was completely taken aback.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUiybOddS1
Jello : "Uh...No, that's not..."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBOOwivJdA
The stars in the girl's eyes went dark for a moment.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nYsB6PePn
Child :
"The sisters, told me...God is, too busy, to hear our prayers.
So he sends angels to redeem us."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1IcWMQjd1b
Child :
"So I waited and waited until the day I could clearly hear the sound."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqj7NiYcau
Jello : "I...I can't do things like that."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRutYFeQ5R
After listening to what I said the girl raised her head and asked, her voice even quieter..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTjFTdDJtGs
Child : "Is my wish too big?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSWfPRPnNu
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80pPtOfYJS
Jello : "I can't do anything like that."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzG8ZUomQ2U
Jello waved her hands frantically.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpoKP3WihC
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKQP3CeF2k
Jello :
"So keep on smiling together~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9MRAhlO1W
The girl stared at Jello, and her face softened, no longer on the verge of collapsing into sobs.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13FQoMK7WQ
Jello :
"Oh! Right! I can sing for you! Maybe then an angel will come!"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcTVC7VkJT
Jello said with a smile.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4t1hjE53E
The wind murmured through the trees, and music flowed through the leaves.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO391mjs06K
"Joel, this really is angel magic."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVMKv4W5Yj
The girl watched Jello sing in the moonlight, reflecting off her hair as it fluttered in the wind.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxMvSuSAqj
The boy, sitting shoulder to shoulder with the girl, silently nodded his head.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUTaeQnn6o
When he looked back to Jello, the moon seemed to be working its own magic.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpgOGHnIh9
There was faint glow stretching out slowly behind Jello.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEbooZuadA
As if she were spreading a pair of wings..
