Adonis said softly, “I used to sleep out on the balcony just to watch the stars. It felt like there was a whole other world out there—one that didn’t stress me out. That’s when I got into stargazing. I bought this telescope after I ran away from home last year.”
I looked at him. “You ran away?”
“Yeah. Long story. But at the time, this telescope was the only thing that made me feel safe.”
Before I could say anything, Zion walked over. “Mind if I take a look?”
Adonis smiled and stepped aside. Zion bent over the scope, looked through it, then laughed. “Damn. I thought stars were just tiny dots. This is dope.”
“You might even catch Jupiter tonight,” Adonis added, switching to a stronger lens.
