Solar had recently found a new drama she liked, a police drama television series. As for why she suddenly had taken an interest in police dramas? Take a guess.

You're probably right.

It was about a man called Hae-Young that worked as a criminal profiler and as a police lieutenant. Despite the fact that he's a cop himself, due to past experiences he didn't trust other cops.

The sky was extremely dark compared to yesterday, with not a single cloud in the sky. The crescent moon illuminated the dark sky with a light that looked like the mixture of white and blue, the bare sky decorated with countless bright stars. Moonstar. Solar chuckled.

When Solar was a kid she used to believe that the stars represent the souls of people that had passed away, it was such a beautiful thought that she chose to still think about stars that way.

The moon lost a star..

Anyways, if this were to be true, I bet the Polar star would be the soul from Santa. Makes sense right?

 

Solar started to smile as soon as she saw Moonbyul inside, busy with putting her laundry in the machine.

"Good evening." She softly said, careful not to scare Moonbyul that flinched anyways, making Solar laugh. This was cer
