A Gift Never Given
Description
Christmas is a time for being together, happiness, and the ones you love. There is no better time to say "I love you." The gifts given are merely a small part of the love within you.
Usually.
Yang Seungho has a gift, but it was never to be given. Now he sits and contemplates it all. Will his heart be strong enough to endure this?
Foreword
He had gotten the box months ago, but now he had no one to give it to.
Amidst the flickering, colorful lights, the sweet eggnog, and the perfectly decorated Christmas tree, Seungho sat on his couch. Despite his bright and festive surroundings, he had never felt so alone, so empty. Sure, the gifts were piling, and he couldn't wait to have Christmas dinner with his family, but Seungho clenched the little box in his hand tighter, wishing he had given this gift when he had the chance. Maybe if he had, he would have a happy holiday.
The melancholy man brought his cup of hot chocolate up to his mouth, the heat from it having dissipated long ago. Seungho's heart wrenched every time he saw the names engraved on the mug. With a sweet red heart around them, dark blue letters spelled out his own name, and someone else's.
Minyoung.
Seungho took a sip from the mug, and scenes from the yesterdays played so freshly from his memory.
