(under construction) a christmas tale
Description
December. A month that for many people is filled with happiness, laughter and Santa Clauses. It's the month of joy, Christmas carols and family traditions.
For Kim Jongin, however, that's not the case. For him, it's like pure torture. And, honestly, he'd rather walk through Hell and back than celebrate Christmas.
Follow him in his adventure through the twenty-four torturous days, and see how he deals with the pain of being part of a family that absolutely loves Christmas!

It felt refreshing, finally being able to breathe without feeling choked. Plugging in his iPod, he slowly made his way towards the city, humming under his breath. Although, the closer to the city he got, the more he realised what a bad idea it had actually been. He had honestly hoped that there wouldn’t be any Christmas stuff out yet, but boy, was he wrong.
Christmas decoration were hanging everywhere; the trees and bushes were accessorized with lights, paper angels were hanging from the branches and every store played loud, obnoxious Christmas music as if trying to lift the Christmas spirit to an even higher level. Really, wasn’t it enough with one store playing music? Did all of the stores have to play? Really?
To be quite frank, it drove Jongin mad and it sure didn’t help his bad mood at all - quite the opposite, actually. He sighed heavily and started doing breathing exercises in order to calm himself down.
Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. Breathe, Jongin, breathe.
But yeah, it wasn’t that bad really. He had seen worse, like that year where people thought it would be cool if everyone was singing old Christmas songs on every corner of every street.
He shuddered at the thought of it. Stuff of nightmares, I tell you.
Looking around, he felt incredibly small, like an animal trapped in a cave.
As he thought about it, he only found one solution to his problems - going to Nevermore Cafe, his beloved cafe, where he was certain there would be no such thing as Christmas.
He made his way through the mass of people, eager to get there, but no matter how hard he pushed he didn’t seem to get anywhere. It was just so many people.
He accidentally bumped into a guy and was about to apologise when the man turned around, and caught the sight of him. He looked at Jongin, being all smiley and Christmas-y and stuff and Jongin felt chills going down his spine. He was dressed in a complete Santa outfit, beard and all, and either was he stuffed with pillows underneath his clothes, or he was a ing balloon. That guy looked stuffed. And creepy. Don’t forget creepy, with his big grin that screamed ho ho ho I’m going to eat you!
Jongin choked on air.
“Merry Christm-”, the man (Santa) started but before he could complete his sentence, Jongin was off, running towards the direction of the cafe. Enough was enough. It had only been a couple of hours but he was already worn out.
