【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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8iX8M2U87
The sun has just dipped below the horizon of the glittering sea, and a cool breeze blows against our faces.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoXkBH02w2
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvD9UEcNUYB
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPS03MWdics
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTyqFsUvRn
Behind me is a trail of footprints marking where i have just been, which will soon be overcome by the waves.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jTnsg97WN
Suddenly, my foot strikes a hard object.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9pBsQeJcP
Looking down, i realized that it was a bottle with a yellow ribbon tied around it.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBtgqx150f
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6UANSxhjA
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYiBI8d0il
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAfUNgXVLs
Pudding : "What are you thinking of?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9I5yDUyWm
That soft but slightly aloof tone couldn't be more familiar.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiLjGYoTx9
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkc86ZOTGn
Jello : "Heh heh~, i knew i would run into you today!"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8W81PG56pi
Jello :
"Okay.. why don't you take it easy today? Tomorrow's itinerary is finished."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11j9wD5GUK
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKryWUXH9QK
He began to talk about the next week's journey.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WZeBHOu47
Jello :
"What about the letter? Have you received it?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4UMNQOBXA
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dM7p9ZGhv
Pudding : "Sorry, i did not."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19uyk0bPSR
Whenever I ask Pudding about it, the answer is always the same.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJzTMv12Wu
Pudding :
"Right.. it's been a long time, I guess she's living happily then."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5JFPiV1wI
Jello : "Uhm, yeah."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeTUhWU8MI
My favorite of Pudding's expressions is that feigned smile of his.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTkCwAwLwo
But I guess we should go back a few years to start the story.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZVB4ZOFDp
At that time, I had just gone from obscurity to full blown it-girl status.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRY3QymFVI
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCCMzfiY6P
I gradually got used to that hectic life and the schedule Pudding made for me.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAySqcyPGRS
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBqZP1VeO8
Puddind : "Are you tired?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX92gqwPeod
Pudding handed a cup of tea to me after my autograph signing.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9Yc1qa1GH
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdD23OlCUC
I said with my face beaming.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8IjxQWILQ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTef9RAdH5m
Pudding :
"I am your manager. I do everything with you in mind, don't force yourself."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRZYqqarbH
Jello :
"Oh it's okay, don't worry! Their smiles are my wellsprings of life.."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeg1KXbUCL
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Fq163q883
Pudding :
"These are gifts from the fans."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYT0IrM7EYn
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGfvBXqxZl
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGqWQGbo1v
Although i haven't been there so often recently, i still wanted to give something to the children.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWY4un4nIPt
Pudding didn't say a single word, he just took out a green envelope from the bag.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn49CzGzNq2
Pudding :
"I don't think this is supposed to go to the orphanage."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPvvPX2gWW
And with that, Pudding turned around and walked out.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQafFT6SOcX
I was left alone there, staring at the letter lying on the table.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOxZVnxPbW
The paper the words were written on looked pretty rough, and even the envelope was folded by hand.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygso2k6X0O
On the front of the envelope was my name.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6GWt25SZ8
It was scrawled in what looked like a kid's messy handwriting.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbIZohV2yj
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3zXv9NMbu
I opened it carefully.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5K2ehBaPG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhkPMgBqoac
Was this their address? I couldn't help thinking that way.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1C2GNVTDeU
I stared blankly at the letter, but I can't seem to make heads or tails of it.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTV6b3lp26C
Pudding :
"So they want you to write back?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygZqOrH5PH
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9GCmRsJgn
Jello :
"A letter..? They want me, Jello, to write one?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihI7iwxH6B
In that instant, I couldn't understand one word of what Pudding was saying.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8JjSCpopx
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4OAVmgfQL
Pudding :
"They're exactly like all the other fans you see from the stage, aren't they?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MIgdqjlUp
Jello : "Like a fan... meeting?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfvPuPwwkc
It was at that very moment that it hit me.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikNghHjRc5
Jello : "Oh! I get it. Thanks, Pudding!"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGUYiRP4Yj
That night, i picked up a pen and looked at the yellow-green stationery with every intention of writing to them.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKaHHo521y
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGwq3FcDzA
So I put down the stationery, used a new piece of paper, and put my pen to good use.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xtulN1RSU
'This is Jello. How should I address you?'
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGViazGBsg
This was the first time I had such a strange feeling.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6N5RGkQI2
I didn't know if the person who would receive this letter would be able to feel my anticipation.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPP1nxU6qGc
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdneyCjwNDZ
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjwFifzoNu
I was in this mood when I handed the letter to Pudding.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7A5Etz4l7k
A few days later, I received another letter.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHVOprwvZE
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdB1d2WtLWq
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBiP5oHc3KL
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnZeKGCpcM
It felt like an inexplicable sense of intimacy had shortened the distance between our hearts.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXimgGMIn9H
I never knew that writing to someone could bring such intense pleasure.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJM8GB5KrYH
I haven't really had a nice conversation with anyone since the death of my Master Attendant.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yOoOmNsRF
So this time i quickly wrote a reply and like last time, i gave it to Pudding.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPaZoEM8sN
Pudding : "Any good news?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEf5IC29DW4
Jello :
"Yes! Heh heh~ The girl who wrote to Jello said she likes my music."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwccq63gWYJ
Pudding :
"Yes, I like it too."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tD90B4SKC
Pudding said calmly.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96wo8vPLcz
Oh.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qQX4v6uuS
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaghize4ymz
It was as if i gained a new hope in my life from the letters Lacy sent me.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlse1JcfwCB
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMneTDXevG
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYxFkmRQvg
We confided in each other like girls whispering their secrets to one another, late into the night, during a slumber party.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfj8bHumeR
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqo886mB7RR
Lacy replies that Pudding is a reliable person, and a lovable klutz.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOLQSVZd7Z
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7T1pBGw2wK
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZbzwyTQNJ
But if i had to mention a shortcoming, it would be that he never smiles.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtxzo7XPeH
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEORJjTgWbl
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0ql1nmyJX
Lacy always tells me the juicy details about Joel.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMmv0a77gY
It's as if she wants to reminisce her memories about him.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvZ9Z3pSwu
Unlike the coldly logical and rational Pudding, Joel is a raucus but gentle fool.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQft4NHFMuW
At least that's how Lacy described him, even though i know that she's probably sweet on him.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7xaAAuv7Q
After all, she talks about him so happily.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KJ6pCGNjQ
Pudding :
"What are you giggling about?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJDOt3zCJW
Pudding's voice is always so cool and indifferent.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQ9RLGZCUk
Jello : "I didn't giggle, Tee hee~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4WMBXCbT9f
I don't know if it's just me, or if a faint smile actually cracked Pudding's lips.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeX5VhubCc
Pudding :
"Don't space off. Get ready, we need to get going."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMc3GoqoyLQ
Jello : "Okay!"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFzQ7D6mNz
I practically flew out of my seat and couldn't hide the smile on my face.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHaP9wHUhc
It turns out, this would be the last time i would ever receive a letter from Lacy.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AsKbs1f73

Jello :
"Pudding, where is the island that Lacy wants to go to?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwhEJzufW9
I leaned forward, resting my head in my hands.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSIHvUTEDZ
With an air of serious earnestly, i asked Pudding to tell me what was on the agenda.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoirXvv4m7G
Pudding :
"It's probably somewhere very far away."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmY5kZm6C4K
Jello :
"Pudding, you really don't know where it is? Jello is curious about it.."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBqdMHG88T
Jello :
"So if you know, please tell me alright?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoMAQVat80
Pudding :
"Don't think too much about it, just take a break."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuIGnhnrDwI
Pudding :
"You still need to deal with the media."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVBmEzhq9e
Pudding closed his notebook and stood, immediately making a beeline for the exit.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTjGCFGsEE
Jello : "Uhm..."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡydTPijpMbf
Pudding has always been like that.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeAx3WUf3Ql
He finds excuses to avoid the questions that he doesn't want to answer.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlunJy35t4W
"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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iUHGyGVol

688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIq9arSqXZ
I answered without thinking, startled as i was by Pudding suddenly coming back into the room.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ob78OvnpS
Jello : "Re..regrets? Me..? Jello?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lH3Fb4PQK
I don't know why this night seemed longer than other nights.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHop2IvvZS
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYPb6obTEJ
Has time really flashed by so quickly?
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6Mzf9HPiE
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNy3lenpJ2i
I waited.. And yet there was no reply from Lacy.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xLRKjfs5A
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8xJyrIa59
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3N3bY0Rp6
In my mind, i could imagine the sweet and cute girl with a pretty smile that Lacy must be..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DjVxNFqEP
Still, I couldn't find her by what i saw in my imagination alone.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxsX143SubP
The lights of the auditorium dimmed, and I could no longer see the people's faces.

688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnasdhHl08D
(Out of the blue, I had a recollection, a flash of a distant, long forgotten memory floating up to the surface of my mind.)

Eh? Was that... Jello's voice?
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVaufwVbK0w
The concert was a smash hit, just as planned.
But when all was said and done, Lacy was nowhere to be seen.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsluktRApb

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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpU35AUO6rk
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWwm6T3khc
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtSEBJueuP
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkegM2v5jj
Following the moonlight, she came to an open space set back a bit from the old road.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDeDTUyiIw
Even though it was surrounded by trees, the moon could still be seen through the branches and leaves.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9jIYtunDj
Jello really liked this spot, it was peaceful and beautiful.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76p4RfDZuF
She felt an urge to sing, like she had just stepped out onto an enormous stage.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTefy0pIdOt
The light of the moon was like a spotlight shining down her through the leaves.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwANkLPnYR
In the future, she would often come here to this secret spot late at night to sing.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZh9IBz5UBu
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9u8kAI4D6z
The two children seemed to be whispering about something.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9mOCxDjOa
She was startled, but she couldn't just ignore them.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOK2bAV67aZ
"Hello there. Isn't it awfully late for you to be out here? Your parents must be worried sick~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCG9ug5oVie
Child :
"We.. don't.. have.. a.. mom.. or.. a dad.."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmubi1eZiv
the brown-haired blue-eyed girl replied.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oYlLZv353
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFrLId2NZH
All of a sudden the girl tugged on Jello's sleeve and asked..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqVlzoCUFy
Child :
"Miss.. are you.. the one who.. has been.. singing here?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTVKRuOAlI
"Mmhm, that's me!"
Jello answered with a smile.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJHFFGX7sn
Child : "So it was you!~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqQOuvIa4a
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFB85jY34o
The girl turned her hand, took the boy's hand, and then said in a comforting tone of voice..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WJzGgcbRd
Child :
"Joel.. see.. i told you.. you'd see.. an angel.."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRChGChtuM
The boy smiled shyly at the girl and nodded.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ48PoL0TuS
"I could.. hear.. your voice...i heard, your voice.. so clearly~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BGS1K3I92
Suddenly the girl became more agitated, and even her gentle voice became hoarse.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYe4w1K7mmT
Child :
"Is that how angel magic works? Can you help Joel speak?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBCGnmUhuZ
Jello was completely taken aback.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dREUgbnXi
Jello : "Uh...No, that's not..."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpc8FeXpOKn
The stars in the girl's eyes went dark for a moment.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNRRzYom4I
Child :
"The sisters, told me...God is, too busy, to hear our prayers.
So he sends angels to redeem us."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvtzftf20P
Child :
"So I waited and waited until the day I could clearly hear the sound."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQqXWuhTyT
Jello : "I...I can't do things like that."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauX0yrjOhQ
After listening to what I said the girl raised her head and asked, her voice even quieter..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA70mcjIH9g
Child : "Is my wish too big?"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHYRSmSZM0
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFkvzvHbAs
Jello : "I can't do anything like that."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63LTSLwRAO
Jello waved her hands frantically.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpJWJj1BR1
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.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZ5BHiRMMn
Jello :
"So keep on smiling together~"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhx3NVIvnk
The girl stared at Jello, and her face softened, no longer on the verge of collapsing into sobs.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnW0dqd3hy6
Jello :
"Oh! Right! I can sing for you! Maybe then an angel will come!"
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cjPI6xg3j
Jello said with a smile.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCw5H0lK7sq
The wind murmured through the trees, and music flowed through the leaves.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3i9zpghFQ5
"Joel, this really is angel magic."
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSev2gjYxG
The girl watched Jello sing in the moonlight, reflecting off her hair as it fluttered in the wind.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe489j9CJbN
The boy, sitting shoulder to shoulder with the girl, silently nodded his head.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Sr19OrWHQ
When he looked back to Jello, the moon seemed to be working its own magic.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmK7UrFYb4
There was faint glow stretching out slowly behind Jello.
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiAXqRxsW1
As if she were spreading a pair of wings..
688Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JqvuIdJVE
