Once upon a time there was a young girl with big dreams, hopes and an attitude of a child - trusting everyone wholesomely. Doubting was never seen nor heard from this young girl. She is kind, sweet and joyous. Everyday, she made it to a point that she can make everyone around her smile, in either small or big gestures. Her positiveness radiates to every corners of the room. Everyone loves and adores her. She is loved by her parents but most by her older cousin. They are inseparable. They look after each other. Her cousin is so protective of her that boys are afraid to come near her. Suitors are scarce and is appraised to a very last detail. One day, her family received a call from a stranger, a disastrous predicament. Her cousin was instantly killed in a brawl. Unexpectedly the young girl didn't cry. She grieved in silence, shedding not a single tear. Because of that,the young girl became distant. She rarely talks and smiles, she always wants to be alone. No one knew what made her change. But as soon as the sun sets in and she is alone in her room - she cries her heart out. Not a scream nor wailing can be heard outside. Tears would just freely escape from her eyes. Until finally,she had the sweetest dream. She dreamt of her dear cousin, comforting her the way she missed it. And with his last words, he told her, "Don't worry sweet cousin, everything will be alright. I'll be just up there watching over you, just as the moon is watching you every night". She woke up feeling different - with an assurance from her cousin. Every night she always looks for the moon and smiles and she is in peace. She no longer grieves but she is never the same again.
