before leaving for mars

\"You\'re going to Mars in a few hours, aren\'t you?\" \"Yeah, that\'s right.\" \"How are you feeling?\" \"Hmm, I\'m excited, worried, and lonely.\" \"So am I. But I\'m glad I went with you.\" \"I think so too. Let\'s be friends forever.\" \"Of course. Let\'s go on an adventure together on Mars.\" \"Yeah, don\'t forget about the earth.\" \"Don\'t forget. Earth is our home.\" \"Yes, because the Earth is our precious planet.\" The two held hands and stared at the earth through the window. I saw the beautiful blue earth slowly shrinking. The two held back tears and said goodbye with a smile. \"Come on, let\'s go. There\'s a new world waiting for you on Mars.\" \"Yeah, let\'s go. Mars has a new dream.\" The two walked back to back. To board each of the spacecraft bound for Mars and the space station that remains on Earth. The two promised to meet again. before leaving for Mars.
