A beautiful night sky spread over the world. Dark and all-consuming, with countless stars scattered all over it. Hong Lu's eyes, which shone as the said celestial bodies, peered out of the window. He stayed motionless in his seat of the bus, feeling it shake gently as it drove toward their upcoming destination. For some reason... he did not wish to return to his room yet, that curious room that depicted his current thoughts and emotional state. Instead, despite of Faust announcing the end of the day, he gave her a silent smile, requesting to stay here for a while longer.

When a thought of finally leaving his seat crossed his mind, he caught a sound of nearing footsteps. His eyes immediately flickered to the source of sound and, upon seeing a familiar face, a pleasant smile spread on his lips.

"What a coincidence~ Could you not sleep as well?"

His voice flowed like a gentle stream, setting a sense of calm in their conversation.
