The Smile Has Left の小説・ストーリー

Smiling. I look up, my heart heavy with everything I cannot say, everything I cannot hold anymore. And for a fleeting second—just one precious moment—I see him. In the light. In the wind. His smile, soft and bittersweet. The boy who dreamed of freedom beneath a sky full of stars. The man who gave everything for a world that wasn’t his. And in that instant, I know—he never truly left me.

, I said, he smiled and his eyes lit up. I could see he was still very weak, "can I feed you?", I asked and he nodded. Seeing Harry Smith the billionaire in a hospital gown just melted my heart. I spent the entire day in the hospital just talking with him. A few times I cracked some jokes to get him to laugh and it warmed my heart when he found my jokes amusing and laughed. A few days after he was discharged. I tended to him myself at home. I found Harry, very easy to talk to and a great conversationalist.

I replied, raising my hand towards him and touching his pinky finger with mine. “Yay!” Mike cheered, and I smiled at him in response. A genuine one for a change. When was the last time I had smiled for real? Ever since the war between our pack and the Moonstone pack had started two months ago, smiling was almost a chore for me. With the war destroying the very essence of our pack, I had to put on a strong front to boost the morale of everyone who looked upon me as their Luna. Even when all I wanted to do was burst into tears after seeing the suffering all around, I had to put on a smile and tell them we will be back to our glory soon. Even if we all knew that it may very well not be the case

On the surveillance footage, I lifted my hand toward the moon and formed a small circle with my fingers. A second later, my body flickered. The edges of me warped and thinned, fading bit by bit until I disappeared completely into the night. The street corner was empty, as though no one had ever been there. Liam's pupils contracted. His breathing turned sharp and uneven. He lunged at the computer, dragged the timeline back two minutes, and hit replay. I walked into frame, made the gesture, and disappeared.

"I’m just going to... take my leave now. Thanks for the bed, I guess." She made it to the door, but then she stopped. Something about the way he was standing there, so isolated and cold, made her turn back slowly. "You know," she started, her voice gaining a bit of unexpected strength. "You should probably try smiling more often. Even though you’re... well, handsome, I guess, smiling actually makes you look human. You don't have to be a total grump all the time. I know your childhood was trash, trust me, I get it, same here, but stop being so miserable."

He smirked. “You can’t leave me anymore.”

In that moment, I couldn't summon the mental space for anger or envy; all that remained was a deep and unshakeable sorrow at the prospect of Logan's departure. As Logan approached me for the final farewell, I couldn't help but notice the gradual disappearance of the broad smile that had adorned his face throughout the goodbyes. Despite my efforts to reciprocate with a warm smile, his eyes betrayed the sadness that dwelled within him. It was a side of Logan I had never witnessed before – a vulnerability he usually shielded from the world.

No, their daughter. His face appeared pale as he left, but a faint smile crossed his eyes.

It was so cute ≧﹏≦ A rare smile showed on his face, that stunned Kim frozen. Her heart raced as she started to blush again. On the other hand, the three boys sneered and were even more convinced that Jake was seriously sick in the head by watching him act like this. However, just as one of them was about to open his mouth to mock him, Jake talked first. The smile was still on his lips, making him look extremely gentle and handsome, but the words coming out of his mouth sent shivers down all four people's spines.

then walked out leaving a smiling man behind. Hi dear readers, How was the chapter?
