I need to fix that, thought Vani as he stared up at the stars through his broken window. It was a surprisingly clear sky; everyone crowded on the roof of the Maitland to stargaze but Vani couldn't bring himself to try to socialize with people.
Suddenly a bright gleaming shape flew across the sky! It was a shooting star! The star brightened up Vani's apartment for only a second, but it was the brightest his home had ever been. In that moment, Vani remembered how this apartment changed his life. In that moment, Vani wanted only one thing: he wanted to be with his father again. In that moment, Vani decided that there was hope; it was possible to one day discover who he was on his own.
Vani wished upon a star. It's time to change. My only wish is to grow up like my father, to leave the dark days behind me. I aspire to be like him one day. I tried, and that is all I could've done, Vani thought to himself. It was almost as if fragments of the shooting star fell onto Vani and sparked a reflective spell upon him. Not only did the shooting star introduce unknown hope that Vani didn't know he had, but it also lit up the Maitland. Things were starting to look up.
Just as Vani tried to relax, he was startled by a sharp chime from his cell phone, only it wasn't his cell phone. It was the flip phone that Logan gave him.
The message read, "Stay on alert. Nothing is as it seems."
Vani decided to go to the governor. The murder of Mr. Evans had dragged on too long.
