“Of course, I’ll help with anything you ask, miss.”
“That’s wonderful. Thank you.”
Gary quickly took Cherry’s hand and shook it. Just then, a man approached her. It was Ethan, dressed in a crisp police uniform.
“Miss Cherry, that young herbalist asked me to find out if there's anything you'd like. Is it your birthday, by any chance?”
“No? My birthday is in the winter.”
Upon hearing this, Gary, Philip, and Basilio firmly committed the information to memory. Cherry’s birthday was in the winter.
“Hmm. What’s this about, then? In any case, is there anything you’d like?”
“There’s nothing I particularly want. And even if there were, could anyone possibly get it now that the world has ended?”
“So there *is* something?”
“A star from the sky. I want a star.”
The men, who had been ready to jot down her words, all froze.
What… did she just say?
‘A… a star from the sky…?’
Ethan, too, stared at her, a look of disbelief on his face.
“There she goes again. That’s something you couldn’t get even if the world hadn’t ended.”
“That’s why I chose it. I have plenty, so there’s nothing I need. Unless you can pluck a star from the sky for me, please tell them a gift isn’t necessary.”
I’d be grateful enough if they just helped with running Happy House. Cherry added the last part very quietly.
With that, she bid Ethan farewell and entered the police station. Ethan watched her go with a dazed expression, then let out a soft chuckle and followed her inside.
A wave of admiration finally broke the silence among the men left behind.
“Wow. I doubt I’ll ever say something that cool in my entire life.”
“You won’t.”
“That young lady is truly no ordinary person.”
Philip, Gary, and Basilio replied one after another, all nodding in agreement.
