When Starlight Falls, When You Wake Up

"Dalla, what does it mean when starlight falls?" A soft voice asked in the darkness.

Who was that voice calling? What was "starlight falls"?

"Dalla... When that day comes, will we still be together..." That voice rang again, but then faded away.

He sat up in curiosity, wondering who was talking in his sleep...

"Dalla... Dalla..." The voice went on calling.

Dressed in lunar white, he followed the voice and walked out at a brisk pace...

A bunch of white roses was giving off a faint fragrance, and a person gradually appeared in front of him across that bunch of flowers. The man was also dressed in white, but now his robe was dyed red, looking so harsh.

"Dalla... Wait for me..." The man rose to his feet and said to the void.

Now he was standing aside in puzzlement. Who was this "Dalla", and who was this man...

"Do you know what it means when starlight falls?" The man suddenly turned to him and asked.

"Starlight falls? What's that? Is it as tasty as hamburgers?" He asked in confusion.

"I don't know either. When starlight falls. When you wake up from a dream. It's what Dalla said."

"Then who is this Dalla? Why don't you ask her? Are you dreaming?" He blurted out jokingly. The man in front of him made him full of doubts.

"Dalla, doesn't belong to this world... Maybe the end of the world is coming..." The man said in a weak voice, as if he was grieving, "I'm leaving. The song is about to end, and I'm waking up..."

"Take care. I hope you will find out the truth," He said casually, not caring about what the man just said.

The man was gone, along with that bunch of white roses. He watched the man going away step by step, and finally, that thin figure vanished completely.

Suddenly, a hint of guilt welled up inside him. He wondered if he was being too indifferent. "Who was Dalla? Can he find her alone? What will be the answer lying ahead of him?" He mumbled to himself. Then he started to feel anxious, and eventually, he couldn't resist running after the man.

However, at this moment, the sound from the music box stopped abruptly...

The dazzling light shone upon his white coat. That was not sunlight, but starlight. Then there was the killing sound past his ears, while before his eyes, countless starlight fell into the city. Flames were devouring everything, and the wail of people split the air. What a miserable scene this was! It was just like the end of the world.

Suddenly, something popped into his mind. That dazzling starlight, and...

"Dalla..." He called out the name instantly.

He woke up all of a sudden and sat up in the starlight, gasping. He looked outside the window. SH Center Tower was shining with a dazzling light, especially its top, twinkling like stars...

He suddenly had the feeling that everything around him was so real, as if they were reminding him that everything in the dream was fake, and that the world he lived in was simply an ordinary mortal world, while he was simply an extraordinary human being in this ordinary mortal world...
