"Star shines in dark, guiding you when you are lost, and mesmerising you with its beauty." She says, looking at the sky, "Do you know that I think of him as my star?"

He knows that she isn't finished, so he doesn't reply. He just holds her hand gently, trying to soothe her.

"He shone brightly, clearing the darkness within me," She says softly, "but I am forgetting that star has a limit life too. It is getting darker everyday and you won't notice the change until it disappears, until you realise that its time is up."

She stops to take a deep breath before she continues, "I am used to its light that I forget how cold darkness is."

She bites her bottom lip as the tears fall down freely.

His hand reaches her face to wipe her tears, "Molly, do you know that every time a star is dead, there are thousand stars are born? Do you know that every single star which is born is brighter than last? You may not see the star brighter than it now, but someday you will. Maybe, there is star out there waiting for you to realise its existence."

Like me for an example. He adds to himself.

He pulls her into hug and let her cry. It will take time to heal the wound, but he will wait.
