Thank you so much for reading this short story!

.

I've always wanted to write a story about a (miserable) person who loved someone, but fate always say no, so in the end he can only repeat, repeat again the memories of the time they're together. For me, loving someone secretly is always heartwarming thing. Just looking at the loved one from a far, admiring in secret, keeping the warm feeling by oneself without receiving any. Giving, not receiving any.

When I was writing this story, I always listened to slow songs to build the mood. One of the song I always listened is this one korean song titled 'Let's Go See The Stars' by Jukjae. I was also inspired by the lyric when I wrote the planetarium scene. I think it is really a good song. I always imagine it as Xuyun's letter to Sui.

When the cold wind blows a little,

the night sky twinkles

After spending a long day,

on the way home,

I thought of you suddenly

.

Where are you? What are you doing?

Do you want to go see the stars with me?

Would you come out of your house for a bit?

Just put on something light

We won't go too far

But I'll hold your hand tight

Even though I don't know the names of the lovely constellations

Would you come with me?

.

When the cold wind blows a little,

I just had many thoughts of you

Walking in the streets at night at the end of a long day

The night skies were so nice

Where are you? What are you doing?

Do you want to go see the stars with me?

Anywhere is good, would you come with me?

.

There were so many words

I want to say to you

But I won't rush

But I do want to hold your hand tightly

Even though I don't know the names of the lovely constellations

Would you come with me?

.

Your and my steps

The way that we're headed

I do not know where that may be

Night that I supposed to be alone

If I can walk with you

That's all I ask
