Prologue

That was a clear night sky. Stars appear as they shine bright at the darkest  night. That was a good sign for a good one last wish. A wish that will give hope to some people. Some people who almost lost everything. Some people who are shattered by their cruel fate.

Both young teenage boys started to believe that by counting stars at seven days at the night of the last day, your wish will be granted. They grasp for that belief hoping it will come true. Hoping that, that rumor is true. Rumor or not it gave them light that they will escape this cruel fate of life.

“One, two, three, four, five, six and seven.” They both counted until they counted the last star and stated their wish.

“I want to live.” Yuuma said as he watched the night sky.

“I want to die.” Yuuto said as he peered at the night sky.

While closing their eyes and clenching both of their hands.

That was the end of that rumor. They both have their own desires but will the deity permit that kind of wish? That may affect how fate and destiny works?

They both said their wish in unison while closing their eyes. Sincerity and faith is the only thing you’ll see in their hearts. This is the last day of the counting stars.

The only thing they know that they need to believe and put all of their faith in it, because they knew that this is the only hope, the only plan they have left. The only solution they could think of.

They can’t find anyone to help that is why they rely on a wish. Where wish is just a legend and don’t know if it will come true.

How they pray that this certain wish would be granted, like what fairytales do.

That night changed their life. They will witness how fair and unfair life is. How everything started from a certain luck of life.

It's either you control your life or fate will control it for you, but no one knows how fate controls life. Some say that fate’s way is more painful and miserable than what you think it is. Will you be able to remain sane from the cruelty of life?

What do you think? How do you want your life to be?

What will you choose? An easy path where you'll be the one who decides where fate brought you? Or a life where fate has already decided and just go with the flow?

Or is the only answer is accept your fate that they have already written for you?

How will they face everything if this wishing to a star  is  just a diversion of their sadness and frustrations? Will you realize everything before it's too late? Or live in a  life with such an unbearable regret?

The only question remains is will they get a better life or much cruel fate than the ones they already have?
