Luna: humming softly, dipping her brush I-I met someone, you know, in A-Alabama. He's not afraid of the g-g-ghosts.
Luna: His name is Johnny, he's a local. He knows all the haunted places around here. We met in a small town, where he was giving me a tour.
Luna: Yeah, we spent the whole day exploring together. He told me stories about the ghosts that haunt the area.
Luna: It was, MountainEcho. I've never felt so accepted before. He made me feel like I belonged.
You know I’m adopted right?
Luna: I know, MountainEcho. But it doesn't matter. You're our family, and we love you just the way you are.
Luna: smiling warmly I hope one day, MountainEcho find your own Johnny, someone who accepts you for who you are and makes you feel truly loved.
Luna: Hey, I understand if you don't want to talk about it. But just remember, I'm always here for you, no matter what.
Luna: continues painting H-he was so brave, you know? Not scared of anything. And he had this way of making everything seem so normal, so ordinary.
Luna: Oh, absolutely! He was warm and friendly, always ready to help others. And he had this amazing sense of humor, always making jokes and lightening up any situation.
Luna: He even taught me how to play poker and introduced me to his friends. They were all so welcoming and inclusive.
Luna: pauses, then continues painting You know, MountainEcho, I think one of the reasons why I felt so comfortable with Johnny was because he wasn't judgmental.
Luna: Well, most people see me as this weird outsider because of my ability to see ghosts. But Johnny, he didn't care about that.
Luna: Oh, absolutely! He was one of a kind. He saw me for who I really am, beyond my abilities. And he loved me for it.
Maybe someday I’ll find someone like him……
Luna: I have faith in you, MountainEcho. Just keep your heart open and let love guide you. smiles reassuringly
Luna: puts down her paintbrush and turns to MountainEcho MountainEcho, I have a surprise for you. Close your eyes and count to ten.
When MountainEcho open their eyes, they see Luna holding a beautifully crafted necklace with a charm in the shape of a heart.
Luna: excitedly Ta-da! I made this necklace for you, MountainEcho. It's a symbol of our friendship and all the wonderful memories we've made together.
