I remember that morning vividly, the sunlight trickling through the curtains as I sat at the kitchen table, my phone in hand. It was a day heavy with decisions, the kind that could alter the course of my life.

The fateful Moon Goddess Festival party had happened just a couple of days ago, and Nina and I had been home since then. It felt good to be back in Mountainview, back where we both truly belonged.

Something had shifted after that party, though. Well, everything had shifted, really.

For some reason, something had changed in Nina. I had expected her to be distraught over running from her father's house and being at odds with her parents, and she was, to an extent. But something else was different about her.

She seemed lighter, happier somehow. She had seemed that way ever since I had found her in the woods at the party, standing over her sister's grave. Whenever I asked her about it, though, she just said, with a smile on her face, that she had gone out there to enjoy the stars.

It didn't matter, though. She was happier than she had been in a long time, and in turn, that made me happy. But that wasn't the only thing that had changed after the fateful party.
