Rachel took his hand. "Jeffrey, you're sad about leaving her, aren't you?" Jeffrey gave a small nod.

The owner here told us she was abandoned and now she doesn't have any family. She was always by herself at first, either staring up at the sky or silently shedding tears. I'd often sit with her whenever I found the time. She used to ignore me, so I'd stay quiet too, just sitting by her side. I'd give her tissues when she cried, and when she smiled, I'd smile back. Gradually, she began to talk and play with me. She's beca good friend." Hearing this, Rachel experienced a mix of sorrow and comfort.
"Jeffrey, I'm glad you've found such a good friend. Considering Selah's difficult situation, would you like to keep looking out for her?" Jeffrey nodded without hesitation. “Of course, I do." "Great! Then I'll help you figure it out." In the days after bringing Jeffrey back home, Rachel focused on nothing but making sure he had fun. Everywhere they went, she captured every moment, filling her phone with pictures. There were solo shots of Jeffrey and snapshots of the two of them together. By the end of the week, her gallery was overflowing.
"Why do you take so many pictures?" Jeffrey asked one evening after finishing his bath.

Even when tpasses, they help us relive the moments that matter most. If one day I can't move around like I do now, I'll still have these to remindof all the times we shared." Jeffrey didn't like the sound of that. It felt strangely sad. He lowered his head and rested it against her knee, his fingers clutching her pant leg the way he used to when he was little.
"I don't like it when you talk like that. You'll always be with me... right?" Rachel stroked his hair, a quiet laugh escaping her lips at his stubbornness. "I'm not immortal. Have you ever thought about the fact that one day I'll grow old, get sick, and... what if I leave the world before you do?" Jeffrey wrapped his arms tightly around both of her legs. "I don't care-I won't let you leave me." Seeing how deeply attached he was to her made Rachel's heart ache. Lately, memories of the past surfaced more often than she liked. She remembered the days they spent hiding in the attic, terrified of being found by Moira, living every second in fear. She recalled the hunger, the nights they went without food, their stomachs aching. But now, they had finally made it through.
Life was getting better.

So why, just when things were looking up, did she have to fall sick and face the possibility of saying goodbye?
The stars shimmered in the night sky as Jeffrey gazed up quietly counting them one by one.
