Chapter 7| Heart Ace | I will Never forget You
Amidst the grandeur of the party, William noticed Ash becoming increasingly restless in the midst of the bustling crowd. Sensing his discomfort, William gently guided Ash towards a small bridge that overlooked a serene river, hoping the tranquil scene would help calm his nerves.As they stood by the bridge, Ash gazed at the reflections of the stars shimmering on the water's surface. "William, look," Ash exclaimed, pointing to the sky. "The stars are so beautiful tonight."William smiled, watching Ash's excitement with fondness. "Do you know, when I was young, I used to wish upon shooting stars? I believed that if you wished hard enough, anything could come true."Ash sighed wistfully. "I used to wish that stars could fly like butterfly. But now I know it's impossible.""Who said it was impossible?" William countered, his eyes twinkling mischievously. "Come with me."Leading Ash away from the bridge and deeper into the quieter parts of the hotel grounds, William found a secluded spot enveloped in darkness. Ash held onto William's hand tightly, his fear of the dark palpable."It's okay, Ash," William reassured him, his voice steady and comforting. "Just trust me."In the stillness of the night, broken only by the soft rustling of leaves, William suddenly clapped his hands loudly. Instantly, the darkness around them was illuminated by a breathtaking sight – countless fireflies filled the air, their gentle glow creating a magical ambiance unlike anything Ash had ever seen.Ash gasped in awe, his eyes wide with wonder. The soft light from the fireflies danced on William's face, casting him in a warm, ethereal glow. For a moment, time seemed to stand still as they both lost themselves in the beauty of the moment."This is incredible," Ash murmured, his voice filled with awe. "I've never seen anything so magical."William grinned, his heart swelling with happiness at Ash's delight. "I knew you'd love it. Sometimes, the most beautiful things happen when we least expect them."They stood there together, hand in hand, surrounded by the soft flickering lights of the fireflies. In that serene moment, amidst the chaos of the party and the uncertainties of life, William and Ash felt a profound connection deepen between them – one that transcended words and filled their hearts with warmth and hope.Little did they know, this magical evening was just the beginning of a journey that would weave their lives together in ways neither could have foreseen.As the glittering affair of the party wound down, William offered to drive Ash home. They navigated through the quiet streets, the soft hum of the car engine filling the comfortable silence between them."I hope you enjoyed tonight," William said, glancing at Ash warmly.Ash nodded, a soft smile playing on his lips. "It was... magical. Thank you for showing me the fireflies. I've never experienced anything like that before.""I'm glad I could share it with you," William replied sincerely. "You know, I brought something for you."Curious, Ash watched as William pulled a small glass jar from his jacket pocket. Inside, a lone firefly fluttered gently, its soft glow illuminating the darkness of the car."It's a reminder," William explained softly. "A reminder that no matter how dark things may seem, there's always a light. You can think of it as me—always there to bring a bit of brightness into your life. And if you ever need someone to talk to, or if you just want to see the firefly again, you can always contact me."Ash's eyes shimmered with gratitude as he accepted the jar. "Thank you, William. This means a lot to me."They arrived at Ash's home, where they found that Ash's parents were still at the party, engrossed in discussions with other guests. William walked Ash to the doorstep, the soft glow of the porch light casting a warm ambiance around them.Ash turned to William, holding the jar gently in his hands. "But how will I contact you? I don't have your phone number."William chuckled softly, pulling out his phone. "We can fix that right now."They exchanged numbers, their fingers brushing against each other in a fleeting touch that sent a jolt of electricity through both of them. As they stood there, bathed in the gentle glow of the porch light and the firefly's soft radiance, Ash couldn't help but feel a sense of longing."When will I see you again?" Ash asked softly, his voice barely above a whisper.William smiled, his eyes sparkling with promise. "Are you missing me already? Well, they say the world is round, so we're bound to meet again. I'll be in touch."With that, William bid Ash goodnight and watched as he disappeared into the warmth of his home. Ash, holding the jar close to his heart, felt a sense of peace wash over him as he drifted off to sleep that night, untroubled by the darkness that had once haunted him.In the days that followed, Ash found himself gazing at the firefly often, its gentle glow a constant reminder of the magical evening he had shared with William. And true to his word, William reached out, their conversations flowing easily as they discovered more about each other with each message exchanged.As their connection deepened, Ash couldn't shake the feeling that their paths were meant to intertwine, guided by the light that William had brought into his life.

The morning air was crisp, and the streets were beginning to bustle with the day's activity. As he walked, he noticed an elderly grandmother struggling to cross the busy road, a large basket clutched in her frail hands. Suddenly, the basket slipped from her grip, and oranges spilled out, rolling across the street.Panic surged through Ash as he watched the oranges scatter. "What if a car doesn't see her?" he thought, his heart racing. Just as he was about to rush forward to help, a sleek car sped into view, swerving skilfully to a stop, blocking the traffic and shielding the grandmother from potential danger.Ash watched in awe as the driver wait until She pick up all her oranges also ensuring she was safely on the sidewalk. Impressed by the driver's quick thinking and kind action, Ash couldn't help but admire the stranger who had turned a potentially disastrous situation into a heartwarming act of heroism.Continuing his walk, Ash took a few turns and found himself in front of a cozy café. To his surprise, he saw the same car parked outside—the car that had just saved the grandmother. His curiosity piqued, Ash lingered near the café, eager to catch a glimpse of the good Samaritan.A well-dressed gentleman emerged from the car and entered the café. Ash watched through the glass as the man approached the counter, exchanged a few words with the barista, and then selected a small cake from the display. With the cake in hand, the man turned and approached a young boy who was sitting alone at a table, his clothes worn and his eyes wide with surprise. Its was William.

In his rush, he tripped on an uneven part of the sidewalk and fell hard, scraping his knee. Ignoring the stinging pain and the blood trickling down his leg, he pushed himself up and continued running, determined not to miss his lecture.When Ash finally reached the classroom, the lecture had already begun. He slipped into the back, trying to be as inconspicuous as possible. Breathing heavily and wincing at the pain in his knee, he focused on the lesson, but his mind kept wandering back to the events of the morning.Meanwhile, William was also on his way to the university, he stopped by the café because he want to pick up a cake for his mother's birthday.

Hi," he greeted, trying to hide the pain in his voice.William's eyes immediately fell on Ash's injured knee. Without a second thought, he quickly approached and gently guided Ash to a nearby bench. "What happened to your knee?" he asked, his voice filled with genuine worry.Before Ash could respond, William dashed off, returning moments later with a first-aid kit. He kneeled down in front of Ash, carefully cleaning the wound and applying a cute bunny bandage over it. Ash watched in awe, slightly bewildered by William's attentiveness."Thank you," Ash murmured, touched by William's kindness. "I tripped and fell while hurrying to class."William smiled, standing up and offering Ash a hand. "You need to be more careful. Come on, let's get some ice-cream. I know a great place nearby."They walked to a nearby ice-cream Parlor, the pain in Ash's knee slowly fading as they talked and laughed. William ordered two strawberry cones, and Ash's eyes lit up with delight as he took the first bite."Strawberry is my favorite," Ash said, savoring the sweetness."I had a feeling," William replied with a grin. "By the way, I heard about a hero this morning who saved a grandmother from a busy street. People are saying it was quite impressive."Ash's eyes widened. "That was you? I saw the whole thing! I was so impressed by how you handled it."William chuckled, a modest blush colourings his cheeks. "It was nothing, really. I'm just glad she's safe."As they finished their ice-cream, they strolled back towards the campus. The conversation flowed easily, ranging from their favourite movies to their future aspirations. By the time they reached William's car, they felt an even deeper connection forming between them."Thank you for today, William," Ash said earnestly. "You really made it special."William smiled warmly. "Anytime, Ash. I'm glad I could help. Take care of that knee, okay?"That night, Ash returned home and, with a heart full of gratitude, sat down to write in his diary.
