【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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOODfOEDiyz
The sun has just dipped below the horizon of the glittering sea, and a cool breeze blows against our faces.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQu4Dglvkjy
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojtdVzOrYX
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSJ8sfinme
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqwxsGzsC7
Behind me is a trail of footprints marking where i have just been, which will soon be overcome by the waves.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1eS3yHgAi
Suddenly, my foot strikes a hard object.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJOPbbUygl
Looking down, i realized that it was a bottle with a yellow ribbon tied around it.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgxB414fo9
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDoGovbjNT0
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhlUjOenlX
The message in the bottle was sent back to sea once again. Suddenly, the sea was lit up in dazzling sparkles by the sunlight.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzL2DZ6qv2
Pudding : "What are you thinking of?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinWr0lWDZa
That soft but slightly aloof tone couldn't be more familiar.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7K4EITxIUr
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..
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiyUiNMt2T
Jello : "Heh heh~, i knew i would run into you today!"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaTbCcwTnr
Jello :
"Okay.. why don't you take it easy today? Tomorrow's itinerary is finished."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYYA5a61fX
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqDdXYheMP
He began to talk about the next week's journey.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXVluXJE8C
Jello :
"What about the letter? Have you received it?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrfPurivcF
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...
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIMiI7HcyE
Pudding : "Sorry, i did not."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0LdFLH2gdy
Whenever I ask Pudding about it, the answer is always the same.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaMdSNxcV2
Pudding :
"Right.. it's been a long time, I guess she's living happily then."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdttwlbXYdq
Jello : "Uhm, yeah."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuqYGedc3m
My favorite of Pudding's expressions is that feigned smile of his.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdMRdlZQD8
But I guess we should go back a few years to start the story.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKGqE48z5Y
At that time, I had just gone from obscurity to full blown it-girl status.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡch3cV2tHEa
I was an overnight sensation.
Lucky for me, everyone had fallen for my songs, which made all the hard work worth it.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98sWNS8Tl1
I gradually got used to that hectic life and the schedule Pudding made for me.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYS9qfK7YKM
Cause i've always believed that, as long as I could go onstage, my music could put a smile on everyone's faces.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZD8Eb6e3z
Puddind : "Are you tired?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmdLxhFbYw
Pudding handed a cup of tea to me after my autograph signing.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUmB456Mdo
Jello :
"Um.. no, not tired at all~ I always get a blast of energy when i meet with my fans in public!"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVgeZO9Qg7
I said with my face beaming.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5TXzXN1r8
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFwLMDgP1O
Pudding :
"I am your manager. I do everything with you in mind, don't force yourself."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQRiYP0QAw
Jello :
"Oh it's okay, don't worry! Their smiles are my wellsprings of life.."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoc8LOv46VV
I could hear just the slightest hint of a sigh in Pudding's voice, then I went and picked up a huge shopping bag.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveiKaZ39dB
Pudding :
"These are gifts from the fans."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoHm1Q13nX
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."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5J2deyJGQn
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LV9vWo37v
Although i haven't been there so often recently, i still wanted to give something to the children.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppOri8G363
Pudding didn't say a single word, he just took out a green envelope from the bag.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoLVEwPLwU
Pudding :
"I don't think this is supposed to go to the orphanage."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJR7fQdykus
And with that, Pudding turned around and walked out.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyJKTvZKXJ
I was left alone there, staring at the letter lying on the table.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKgPEPmg7T
The paper the words were written on looked pretty rough, and even the envelope was folded by hand.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7cKPJwdao
On the front of the envelope was my name.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPq1a1tqzQ
It was scrawled in what looked like a kid's messy handwriting.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw04HhFmRND
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7VxwjySMb
I opened it carefully.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpkjRXiQVGh
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtnYTJpgfV
Was this their address? I couldn't help thinking that way.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUGkIpVJSd
I stared blankly at the letter, but I can't seem to make heads or tails of it.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXlCYcGV3O
Pudding :
"So they want you to write back?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvCNd2eZAr
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..
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlIp2jfa2C
Jello :
"A letter..? They want me, Jello, to write one?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaYeS531G3O
In that instant, I couldn't understand one word of what Pudding was saying.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJREDptjJpa
"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?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8v9H1QkuHU
Pudding :
"They're exactly like all the other fans you see from the stage, aren't they?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrhF7UL05C
Jello : "Like a fan... meeting?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uSRoi8Wyl
It was at that very moment that it hit me.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDtb7NbBKC
Jello : "Oh! I get it. Thanks, Pudding!"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVXToE4wKM
That night, i picked up a pen and looked at the yellow-green stationery with every intention of writing to them.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQe45HLl9tm
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dn0yezJdG
So I put down the stationery, used a new piece of paper, and put my pen to good use.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgwUSe3WPCY
'This is Jello. How should I address you?'
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6SWvTL6nu
This was the first time I had such a strange feeling.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2cPLCuwrr
I didn't know if the person who would receive this letter would be able to feel my anticipation.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyJupC5yEN
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgf3UMpyKGz
Now with this person, i can only communicate through letters.
It makes me feel nervous for absolutely no reason i could understand.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gGiqjLLgC
I was in this mood when I handed the letter to Pudding.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhWHdzs0S9
A few days later, I received another letter.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6hX9z2BUs
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvG5wn5iLP
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NSbahe28L
It resembled more like a note that people passed casually passed around, but it made its way into my heart without even trying.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0TEYKsoex
It felt like an inexplicable sense of intimacy had shortened the distance between our hearts.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulxWGm4UbE
I never knew that writing to someone could bring such intense pleasure.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64AD6eWMD1
I haven't really had a nice conversation with anyone since the death of my Master Attendant.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNK70V3kIv
So this time i quickly wrote a reply and like last time, i gave it to Pudding.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXvlEm3rC2
Pudding : "Any good news?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOh8h0XSWt
Jello :
"Yes! Heh heh~ The girl who wrote to Jello said she likes my music."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nddEgoC1l
Pudding :
"Yes, I like it too."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kr7gYOC0S
Pudding said calmly.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndVbiC7cal
Oh.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSrNop1f5p
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO01RHmYO7s
It was as if i gained a new hope in my life from the letters Lacy sent me.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6qtbDnVtOS
I began receiving them at the rate of about one every other day, the topics of conversation waxed increasingly routine with each letter.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8HahDdCsY
So often it feels like I'm dreaming, that i feel such familiarity with her yet i haven't known her for very long.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuW1XjhiLBK
We confided in each other like girls whispering their secrets to one another, late into the night, during a slumber party.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa31PuTOWdN
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HAxCgKK5v
Lacy replies that Pudding is a reliable person, and a lovable klutz.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ezanj097X
Of course i know Pudding is a reliable guy. But i don't think that 'klutz' is the right word to describe him.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUPAqhBx2b
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZp3iv1miqP
But if i had to mention a shortcoming, it would be that he never smiles.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCgKWDHlga
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2SRAF0iNU
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNd9CvR3Uk
Lacy always tells me the juicy details about Joel.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbMh6BlZuM
It's as if she wants to reminisce her memories about him.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5UE2EKop9
Unlike the coldly logical and rational Pudding, Joel is a raucus but gentle fool.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtA0Wj80VrU
At least that's how Lacy described him, even though i know that she's probably sweet on him.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpLPh3BgVr
After all, she talks about him so happily.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYpQ8hJnAe
Pudding :
"What are you giggling about?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALEeuz67zL
Pudding's voice is always so cool and indifferent.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKS9CmLI3S
Jello : "I didn't giggle, Tee hee~"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNJhZt1cpW
I don't know if it's just me, or if a faint smile actually cracked Pudding's lips.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwh74slQwn
Pudding :
"Don't space off. Get ready, we need to get going."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUFde37EAo
Jello : "Okay!"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDacxQz7eTT
I practically flew out of my seat and couldn't hide the smile on my face.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfRQUOL2m0
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?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIsc1raS7U
I leaned forward, resting my head in my hands.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOx2hE6rZ4
With an air of serious earnestly, i asked Pudding to tell me what was on the agenda.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxACfazvqH1
Pudding :
"It's probably somewhere very far away."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUaUDDf6Ec
Jello :
"Pudding, you really don't know where it is? Jello is curious about it.."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkBWCqg76m
Jello :
"So if you know, please tell me alright?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE41rCqANAD
Pudding :
"Don't think too much about it, just take a break."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjVQ2GnxK4
Pudding :
"You still need to deal with the media."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTdFqW450f
Pudding closed his notebook and stood, immediately making a beeline for the exit.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Hq1AHyr75
Jello : "Uhm..."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5G1ACrDw7
Pudding has always been like that.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYrozYMmTz
He finds excuses to avoid the questions that he doesn't want to answer.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRO1VAm2Qqj
"If you want to have no regrets, invite her to come listen to your songs. That would be the best gift of all."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cENcoi3CY
Jello : "Okay...?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHssbG5zFG
I answered without thinking, startled as i was by Pudding suddenly coming back into the room.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZV7wgK28h3
Jello : "Re..regrets? Me..? Jello?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvivynDLPUF
I don't know why this night seemed longer than other nights.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQRLxPF4oz
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhr88Y5S9m
Has time really flashed by so quickly?
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WBtUpIkbE
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMeSw992U9d
I waited.. And yet there was no reply from Lacy.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuj0FkGkRVi
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4yF1aCCwl
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKP8nDEPodo
In my mind, i could imagine the sweet and cute girl with a pretty smile that Lacy must be..
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HQTIbOLg8
Still, I couldn't find her by what i saw in my imagination alone.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrvX4cbI41
The lights of the auditorium dimmed, and I could no longer see the people's faces.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6p54hbHya
The stage would be all lit up next.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqdBkhDh0i0
A shining, brilliant world that would soon belong to me.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4h2floZzaj

"Hello everybody~ I am your Jello! Today, Jello's soft and sweet songs will put a smile on your face!"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRh7elusG9Z

497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrrtjYH4sV
Lacy, can you hear it?

Eh? Was that... Jello's voice?
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzLg6etWsT
The concert was a smash hit, just as planned.
But when all was said and done, Lacy was nowhere to be seen.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9CHRedQz5

Jello was walking down the street by herself.
This was the first time she'd come here since her Master Attendant had passed.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXGhzEK5BtR
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtngXMyE6AN
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttae5LP11B
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSiQZqIzTHU
Following the moonlight, she came to an open space set back a bit from the old road.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFzYVO5734
Even though it was surrounded by trees, the moon could still be seen through the branches and leaves.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFd7hF2zyQx
Jello really liked this spot, it was peaceful and beautiful.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIG9k88QmM
She felt an urge to sing, like she had just stepped out onto an enormous stage.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZftjm8NwM
The light of the moon was like a spotlight shining down her through the leaves.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5J0vuuH8By
In the future, she would often come here to this secret spot late at night to sing.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAPxyoduQc
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OrCZTw7ou
The two children seemed to be whispering about something.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdO7FTRlQy
She was startled, but she couldn't just ignore them.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4G9qeJa2j
"Hello there. Isn't it awfully late for you to be out here? Your parents must be worried sick~"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEP8isrLwLc
Child :
"We.. don't.. have.. a.. mom.. or.. a dad.."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqytMirzXc
the brown-haired blue-eyed girl replied.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcseIKqrrA
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.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRoKrWwr0r
All of a sudden the girl tugged on Jello's sleeve and asked..
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NSVgo1B3p
Child :
"Miss.. are you.. the one who.. has been.. singing here?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAndrJrCxhP
"Mmhm, that's me!"
Jello answered with a smile.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAu0mS0aMOl
Child : "So it was you!~"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMX6ZuTnxAC
A rare smile appeared on the girl's face, and all the stars in the sky seemed to be sparkling in her eyes.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KN3fZ1GoF
The girl turned her hand, took the boy's hand, and then said in a comforting tone of voice..
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqTzf8D7KM
Child :
"Joel.. see.. i told you.. you'd see.. an angel.."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WTyxKVilg
The boy smiled shyly at the girl and nodded.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFRJFMHU99
"I could.. hear.. your voice...i heard, your voice.. so clearly~"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4YPZsAWgt
Suddenly the girl became more agitated, and even her gentle voice became hoarse.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8l47FAAL5f
Child :
"Is that how angel magic works? Can you help Joel speak?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDNvuXUMLc
Jello was completely taken aback.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWEUmJyiEb4
Jello : "Uh...No, that's not..."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GvyVH9gKc
The stars in the girl's eyes went dark for a moment.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RtgSfJI4y
Child :
"The sisters, told me...God is, too busy, to hear our prayers.
So he sends angels to redeem us."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhm9GPSlMuH
Child :
"So I waited and waited until the day I could clearly hear the sound."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMKdctXZJz
Jello : "I...I can't do things like that."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGNddD30sP
After listening to what I said the girl raised her head and asked, her voice even quieter..
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Mq2Av68OB
Child : "Is my wish too big?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRBnnMW30H
Child :
"Then I don't need to be able to hear, just make Joel be able to speak. Can you do that?"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOmyzYjxDI
Jello : "I can't do anything like that."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVtm0bgkwz
Jello waved her hands frantically.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCR50TfkdQy
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."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluTlpxej4H
Jello :
"So keep on smiling together~"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1LAoEn3Ye
The girl stared at Jello, and her face softened, no longer on the verge of collapsing into sobs.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaY5fzXcYI
Jello :
"Oh! Right! I can sing for you! Maybe then an angel will come!"
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzyTZPZhwV
Jello said with a smile.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitp4oXKQgq
The wind murmured through the trees, and music flowed through the leaves.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQtaMmw5oH
"Joel, this really is angel magic."
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweGvdiR4uY
The girl watched Jello sing in the moonlight, reflecting off her hair as it fluttered in the wind.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhNFGGMrlc
The boy, sitting shoulder to shoulder with the girl, silently nodded his head.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxsExCmtAP
When he looked back to Jello, the moon seemed to be working its own magic.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3Pt2iqyYs
There was faint glow stretching out slowly behind Jello.
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0bxbnM3QZ
As if she were spreading a pair of wings..
497Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2O8yKRf2t
