But they were both looking at it. When she looked over, Squall was also
looking over. They both realized they had seen the same thing and she
pointed (literally) that out. It's like being in love and wondering if the
person you love who is 50 miles away is looking up at the same stars as
you. Shooting stars are significant especially in relationships because they
can grant wishes in a sense, or in relationships it's good luck if you see a
shooting star when you're with the other person. There are a bunch of
meanings to the finger but the literal meaning is that she is pointing at a
shooting star, whether or not she's trying to get his attention is just a
question of symbolism and personal opinion, but the fact that she's
pointing at a shooting star can't be overlooked.
