At the edge of the sleepy orbit nursery, Dara rolled her blue ring in slow whoosh-whoosh circles, trying to give the two baby stars a goodnight sparkle. Her crescent moon friend hummed, “Shh, little planet,” but Dara’s heart felt too full and bright to keep quiet. She patted her red night hat, checked under her ring, and even sniffed the cold, cinnamon-smelling space dust. No sparkle anywhere.

Dara giggled so softly that more specks floated down and kissed her cheeks, settling there like tiny star stickers. “Share,” whispered Dara, and the baby stars shone back. Ever since, sleepy planets keep little cheek-stars for bedtime joy, and if you spot Dara’s fuzzy pom-pom, you may know where the first sparkle hid.
