At that moment, Lina realized she may have harbored ill feelings about Gia in the past.
Renee took a quick look at the necklace and swiftly returned it to Lina.
"It looks really nice," she said with a smile, repeating herself, "And it's shaped like a star. Zuko is really good to you!"
"If you ask Toph for it, he'll give it to you too."
"No, no, I don't want something so precious!" Renee quickly waved her hands.
"What do you want then?" Lina asked.
Renee thought for a moment and honestly replied, "As long as I'm with him, I don't want anything else!"
The two girls smiled at each other, their eyes sparkling as they talked about their crushes.
Lina played with the necklace while looking up at the sky. Tonight, there was a full moon with no stars visible. As she raised the necklace, the star pendant stood out against the deep blue background, shining alongside the moon as if the stars and moon were united.
"Zuko said that if I make a wish on the stars, it'll come true." Lina recalled the moments she spent with him, feeling as if they belonged to a previous lifetime. She sighed and was about to put on the necklace again when she suddenly noticed something on the back of the star pendant.
Lina was startled and examined it closely with her finger. It turned out that the pendant was hollow with a diamond embedded on the front and on the back...
"Renee, look!" Lina exclaimed softly.
Curiously, Renee leaned over and saw a small object embedded in the back. However, the pendant was exquisitely crafted, making it difficult to notice without careful observation.
"What's this?" Lina took out the object.
It was something smaller than a fingernail, thin, and needed to be held tightly.
