International Star Registry

I guess it's the "anniversary of the day we first met" or something like that. He had a star named after her. Had a plaque sent to her house with a star map pin-pointing the stars location in the heavens.


He wanted to give her something special for the occasion and had been thinking about a star for a while now.


He sits on guard duty at night and looks up at the sky. The sky on cloudless nights sparkles and shimmers with the light of billions of stars - more stars than he's ever seen before. Then he thinks about sitting on a blanket with her under those stars, gazing up at them for hours and talking. It comforts him. Little dreams like that comfort him.

The package contained a card.
