Chapter 963 Little Falling Star [Part 2]
Little_Falling_Star.
That was the username that I used when I was still living back on Earth as Aina Williams.
My parents were involved in a car accident, so my twin sister and I were raised by our grandparents after they passed away.
Although my grandparents weren't rich, we grew up with love and care and lived somewhat peaceful lives.
Unfortunately, just as we were about to enter high school, I started to suffer from severe headaches that progressively became worse over time.
Later on, I would sometimes lose feelings in my arms and legs. Having experienced it multiple times, I felt that something was terribly wrong with me.
Thinking that I was just tired and stressed from school, I ignored these symptoms and just settled for pain relievers.
But, one day, on my way to school, I collapsed and was sent to the hospital.
On that day, I found out that there was a tumor growing in my brain, and the only way to get rid of it was surgery.
The news descended upon me with the weight of a mountain.
Even my twin sister and my grandparents didn't expect that I'd be suffering such a serious illness. Unfortunately, we didn't have the money for the surgery, which made my grandparents feel depressed.
However, my twin sister, Shania, took it upon herself to find a way.
And thus, Luna the Idol was born.
Both of us had been scouted many times by companies to become idols due to our good looks. Back then, we didn't think much of it since we were still young, and we believed that education was much more important than entering the entertainment industry.
But, due to the circumstances that befell me, my sister set aside our belief and took the burden upon herself to enter that dazzling world with gritted teeth.
Every time I saw her come back home looking so exhausted that she couldn't even bother to take off her clothes before sleeping on her bed made my heart ache.
The only thing I could do was support her in any way that I could and ensure that she would at least be healthy enough to continue her line of work.
When she made her debut as an idol, she wasn't really popular back then. However, she did gain some fans, and one of them was called MoonKnight69.
My sister's stage name was Luna, and this name meant Moon.
The person who had the username MoonKnight69 was always there to support her, and he never hesitated to fight against the trolls who dared to throw mud at my twin sister.
He was her Knight.
Her Moon Knight.
I was a very timid person, but seeing other people say hurtful words to my sister made me feel hurt as well. Because of this, I decided to join my sister's "Number One Fan" and hid behind the username, Little_Falling_Star.
Although I couldn't be the moon, I could be a little star that would support and protect my sister with everything I had.
At first, I was overwhelmed by fear when the haters, and trolls, ganged up on me. However, MoonKnight69 would always be there to bring them down a peg and became the pillar and shining beacon among my sister's supporters.
In time, this group of fans grew and grew until it became an online organization that had the power to socially destroy a person the moment they attacked her twin sister.
After spending a few years with him, I realized that I had become dependent on him.
Whenever he was offline, I would miss him and think of him all the time.
I would wonder what he was doing and why he wasn't there.
This feeling only became stronger, and with the help of my sisters in the fan club, I finally took that step to send him a private message.
That was how it started, and we would talk about many things.
Although we didn't see each other's faces, we had heard each other's voices.
He was several years older than me, but that didn't matter to me.
His age didn't matter to me, and the only thing that mattered was him.
His voice.
His laughter.
His anger.
His everything.
That was the only thing that mattered to me back then.
After my sister became popular, she had me confined in a top hospital under the care of professional doctors who would conduct the surgery.
My first surgery was deemed successful, so I focused on my recovery. However, as if mocking me, the tumor returned a year later.
My health hadn't always been the best, and after my surgery, it didn't become any better. Because of this, the doctors advised that I spend some time recovering. Only when my body was strong enough to undertake another surgery would they operate on me again.
During this time, my sister's popularity had finally reached a threshold where she appeared in commercials, variety shows, dramas, and movies.
It was as if all my suffering had been converted to her success.
I didn't feel jealous or envious of her. In fact, I was very happy about her success and wished for the best.
But as the seasons changed, my health kept on deteriorating to the point that my doctors finally decided to take a gamble.
I didn't say anything, but I felt that my end was near.
I believed that the moment I fell asleep in the operating room, I would never wake up again.
Because of this, I made my final preparations.
I said goodbye to my friends and acquaintances.
I spent some time with my grandparents.
I spent some time with my sister whenever she wasn't busy with work, and I would always tell her how much I loved her.
I also thanked her for everything she did for me and wished for her happiness in life.
Finally, I bid my farewell to the guiding light who had been by my side for the past few years.
I told him that I would just be studying abroad and would focus on my studies. Because of this, I would be unable to be as active as I was in the past.
MoonKnight69 was worried about me and insisted that I keep in touch with him even when I was studying abroad.
Back then, my tears fell on the screen of my phone as we talked all night.
I typed the words "hahaha!" to make him feel that everything was fine, despite the fact that my heart was breaking because I would no longer be able to talk to him.
Even as the doctors were about to administer anesthesia so that I would fall asleep during the operation, my heart was calling out to him.
That time, I promised myself that if I survived the operation, I would no longer hesitate and meet him in real life.
I wanted to be more than just his online girlfriend.
I wanted to be his girlfriend in real life, and for that to happen, I needed to get through with my second surgery.
Unfortunately, it wasn't meant to be.
We weren't meant to be together in that lifetime.
Aina Williams was unable to see the next sunrise.
However, somewhere far away, Aina Goldenslayer was born not long after.
I have lived a life that has been filled with hardships, but I don't feel bad about it.
I have an adorable little sister, whose name is Colette.
I have a dependable older brother whose name is Tristan.
My father, Victor, is a bit strict, but he loves us just as much.
As for my mother, Felicia, she is the true leader of our household, and even my father has to listen to her, or he ends up finding himself sleeping on the floor.
I had no recollection of my past life until I started my Ranker Trial.
When I lost control of myself, I recalled the memories of my past, allowing me to overcome the hidden heart demon that had followed me into my reincarnation.
For some reason, I felt attracted to Lux.
But this attraction had nothing to do with his impressive physical appearance.
It was an attraction between souls.
That was why when Lux healed the scars on my body, I repaid him with a kiss.
Ever since then, I would think about the Half-Elf from time to time and would wonder why I felt attracted to him.
However, after finding out his true identity, I finally realized why I felt so attracted to the handsome teenager.
I felt as if my wishes had been granted by some kind of God, allowing me to have a second chance to grab hold of the love that didn't take place back on Earth.
"MoonKnight," Aina said as she looked at the person whom she loved aside from her sister Shania. "I missed you."
"I missed you too, Little Falling Star," Lux said as he cupped her face, fighting the tears that were threatening to fall if he lost control of himself.
This time, I will not hesitate.
Back then, I was sickly and weak.
But now, I am healthy and strong.
Now that the Gods have given me this second chance at life.
Nothing will stop me from taking hold of the happiness that I rightfully deserve.
Looking at Lux's face, Aina could feel her heart beating wildly inside her chest.
Her feelings were overflowing and tears started to well up in her eyes once again.
"I love you," she said as she lowered her head.
"And I love you more than you'll ever know," Lux replied.
Before her tears could fall a second time, she pressed her lips against Lux's and subconsciously closed her eyes, enjoying this happiness that she didn't think was possible.
Two fiances? She didn't care.
Even if he had three or four of them, her feelings wouldn't change.
She'd met him before they did.
She had loved him before they did.
This was why she would not hold back from claiming what was hers.
Although my father will disagree, I will let my mother do the talking.
Even if the sky were to fall over my head right at this moment…
I will strive to share eternity with the person who holds the other piece of my heart.
