Starfire was in her room crying. She hugged her pillow and cried in it. Her last meeting with X was replaying in her mind as she thought about what had happened and cried even harder. Why on earth was earth so confusing?


Flashback

Starfire walked into Robin's room to meet him just as he had requested. "Greetings friend Robin. I have arrived." She smiled as she entered.

"Star. Lets just get to the point. I saw you and Red X on the roof yesterday. I want answers." Said Robin with a straight face. They were both facing each other. After two long minutes of silence, Robin spoke again. "Star, tell me whats going on."

Starfire then proceeded to tell him the whole story till date. The first time he came. The talk they had and even the mustard burger. For starfire trusted Robin. He would never want her to get hurt.

"Oh god star what have you gotten yourself into?" sighed Robin. "Starfire, listen to me. You cannot trust Red X. He is a criminal and for all you know he might be using you to get information."

"No Robin. That is not true. He is just a thief and not a criminal. Also, he does not want any informationabout the titans. We never talk about the team" said Star defending X.

"Maybe not now star, but he might start later…." Robin tried once again to convince her but she cut him off. "No Robin if that happens I shall not tell him"

Before they could continue their argument. The siren went off.

"If that is X theres something I want you to do. If he really is trustable then he will leave crime if you ask him to. I want you to ask him." Said Robin. "I'm sorry star but that's just how Earth works, If he does not leave crime then understand that he was just playing around with you"

Robin then walked out of the room to check on the threat. Starfire followed, now feeling very unsure about earth and its ways.

Well if Earth did work that way then she will ask X what Robin asked her too.


She lay on the rooftop under the star-less sky. "I saw the sunset today too X. Did you?" she asked to the wind.

"Oh X'hal! Please help me" she prayed as a new born tear fell from her eye.
