heavenly body

The air becomes cold, I start rubbing my arms.
"Do you want to leave?", Chanyeol asks.
"If you join me.", I answer mischievously while turning to him.
"Fine, let's go and drink something."
Chanyeol gets up and I follow him along the river.
The path we're walking is slim so our bodies touch.
I lower my head and start smiling.
Chanyeol doesn't notice, he's staring straight ahead.
Wind blows and the water ripples softly.
I lift my head again and see thousands of little stars shining brightly in the night sky.
My fingers poke Chanyeol's arm gently.
"Can you see a constellation up there?", I want to know, showing to the luminaries.
He lifts his head as well, watching closely.
"There's the great venture..."
I admire him for recognizing it. I was never good at identifying constellations.
"Wow..", there's nothing else to say. The wide sky impresses me. This infinity is barely to comprehend.
"Look, do you see the bright one? The polar star? Its light shines the brightest, my grandma once told me about it.", Chanyeol asks.
"I see!"
It's true. When you look at the sky you directly notice this bright shining light.
"She said that Grandpa's there now, watching over us, showing us the right way when we get lost.", his mouth angles start smiling but his eyes don't.
"I like this thought. It helps to handle the sadness of losing a beloved person."
He nods.
We arrive at a diversion which leads us to a small café.
It looks quaint and comfy there.
Chanyeol and I both order a hot chocolate. It's my favourite drink when it gets cold outside.
We're joking around things we've done in our childhood, we laugh about little things.
The evening finishes marvelous and I am tired but happy.
As we're standing outside on the sidewalk my hands are still heated.
"So now that I know you're destined for me let's meet again tomorrow!", I suggest smiling brightly.
Chanyeol agrees.
"Of course, everything you want.", he answers cheeky, then makes a bow nevertheless.
"Don't be that formally.", I hug him carefully.
He slowly puts his arms around me as well.
He got so close to my heart and now became someone I never want to miss.
One can say he grew to my heart already.
"Be careful, sweetie.", he pats my head.
"So are you."
Chanyeol starts walking backwards and I wave over to him.
He smiles.
This boy is crazy. I start laughing.
Then I set off to get home.
