Tears

Dyon smiled lightly, looking up at the nine shining moons while holding Madeleine in his arms. 

He remembered the first time he met Madeleine. Back then, she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Her black hair was done up in an elegant bun, she wore crystal framed glasses, and her eyes shone with a delicate golden light. 

However, she had also been incredibly sick. What should have been a rosy complexion was marred by a pale white death, as though the grim reaper was holding its scythe to her neck. 

Dyon remembered being enamored immediately. It wasn't just because of Madeleine's beauty, but it was rather the strength of her heart. Even with death looming over her young life, she still managed to smile, playing the role of big sister for Delia and Meiying.
