Then night skies had always held a certain intrigue for Isela. Depending on the location, they could be seen scattered across the vast emptiness and she could stare into the unknown for hours if the sun allowed for it. "My father always told me that the reasons the stars shine so bright is because their full of everyone's hopes and dreams. They absorb them and shine back with positivity and love, so you're never alone." She knew it wasn't true. The science was there and despite how religious she was, she never rebuked science. She simply liked to believe in the littlest things, It's what helped her stay so cheery and happy.
"He used to have us kids pick one every night before bedtime, so that we could pray for whatever was deep in our hearts and have our own small beacon of hope to look for when the night came again." Her gaze turned to Aria who laid next to her, looking up at the night sky as well. Having someone to share the activity with made her feel more at home and she was thankful her ladies best friend was willing to indulge her. "Pick one, put everything you have in it and you'll feel like a weight has been lifted. It can be really therapeutic."
