Her name was Luna, a gentle British Shorthair, as soft as the moonlight š.
I still remember the first day I brought her home ā she carefully peeked out, wide round eyes staring at me, as if saying: "From now on, letās live this life together."
Our days were quiet and warm ā.
In the morning, she would gently wake me up at the bedside.
At dusk, sheād rest on the windowsill watching the sunset š
At night, sheād curl into my arms š¤, purring softly like a lullaby.
I always thought we had plenty of days ahead š .
But life often leaves gaps when we least expect it.
That winter , Luna passed away suddenly after a brief illness š.
The house instantly felt emptier, as if even the air had lost its warmth.
They say time heals everything ā³.
But longing grows quietly.
Every time sunlight slants through the window š, I instinctively turn my head, as if sheās still there, watching me from the windowsill.
Then I discovered Gempets š ā a service that extracts carbon from fur or ashes to create a diamond.
I entrusted them with a strand of Lunaās fur, as if handing over a piece of my unending longing.
Months later, I received the little diamond š.
That night, wearing it beneath the starlit sky , I felt as if Luna was winking at me from the sparkling stars above āØ.
Longing may never cease, but love always finds a way to stay š.
In a new gentle form, Luna continues to walk with me through every day ahead .
