Beautiful

When Max sees Nudge, Gazzy, and Angel alone on the porch outside, doing nothing, she worries.

"Is something wrong?" she asks after poking her head outside, trying to keep the nervousness out of her voice.

Angel turns and smiles reassuringly before taking Max's hand and pointing up to the night sky.

"Look," is all the little girl says. A single word, full of wonder and awe and innocence.

And Max turns her gaze upwards, and sees shooting star after shooting star fall across the sky.

Even Gazzy seems awestruck, and Nudge, for once, is at a loss for words.

Max squeezes Angel's hand, smiling slightly.

Because just like family, this scene was truly beautiful.
