Magical little extra: the moon landing
The first human landing on the moon......
"Let's go."
"Let's go?"
"Yes, let's go, take a step forward."
"Why am I taking this step?"
"Because if you take one step, you can go to the moon. It may be a small step for you, but it is a big step for all of humanity! β
"Yes...... I suddenly didn't want to move. β
"No, as long as you take this step, you will immediately be famous through the ages, and from then on the audience will be admired and enjoy endless benefits."
"Is it really that good?"
"It's nature β you see, the future is bright."
"Yes, the future is bright, I just need to go on......"
"That's right, go on, and there's no turning back at all."
"Yes, there's no turning back, I can only go on......"
"Then let's go, don't wait, everyone is watching."
"But...... I'm still not leaving. β
"Not leaving? What can you do if you don't leave? There's no turning back. β
"I ...... Can you just stand here? β
"Standing here?"
"Yes, stand here and let your flesh rot or turn into a stone statue......"
"You, you, what are you trying to do?"
"I ...... I'm afraid. β
"Afraid of what?"
"I'm afraid that if I take one more step, he will never see me."
"If you don't leave, he won't be able to see it."
"Can't really see it?"
"How can you see it from such a distance!"
"Maybe, maybe it's just that step?"
"You, you, you're really not leaving?"
"Don't go, you go back, I feel ...... If I can get one step closer to him, my heart will be more steady, even if he can't see me, I can't see him, but ...... Just let me keep this step for him. β
"That'...... I'll just go back. β
"Go back, thank you for sending me here."
"Then I'll be goneβdon't forget, you can change your mind at any time."
"Well, then let me wait until the day I change my mind."
"Well, hopefully that day isn't too far away."
"Goodbye, Canopy."
"Goodbye, Madame."
So......
Tell me.
When you look up at the bright moon, can you see her?
