Bloomie: Little Things, Little Lights (Self-Translated)

"CHIRP!"A tiny glowing creature—Soren's little lumie—immediately latched onto Florin's shoulder the moment he arrived. Florin smiled a little and gently patted it. Soren rolled his eyes. "So you're choosing him now? Fine. At least I won't keep wasting money on Bubble Crystal chips anymore." "Chirp..." The little lumie immediately dimmed in disappointment. Florin laughed softly. "You like Bubble Crystal chips? The café where I work gives them out for free for little lumies." "CHIRP CHIRP~" The little lumie instantly lit back up again, bouncing happily on Florin's shoulder. Living in a big city like Grisea, Florin had gotten used to being alone. He had friends to laugh with at campus, but once the day ended, he always went back to a quiet apartment with no one waiting for him.He thought that was just how things were. Then things started getting weird.Other people's little lumies—who were supposed to hate sitting on anyone except their owners—started getting a little too comfortable around him. One would suddenly sit on his shoulder. Another would fall asleep beside him. And somehow, his normal days started feeling a little less empty.It was strange. Sometimes annoying, even.But he didn't dislike it.(note: I am officially publishing this story on Scribble Hub under the username shineyblinkbling, Wattpad under the username @shiney_blinkbling, and KaryaKarsa under the username shineyblinkbling)
