                                                 Christmas. Where everything is magical, where everything is so dreamy; so jovial; so blissful.

                                                 When life feels a little bit better than yesterday, as the first snow starts to fall one by one to

                                                 the earth. The moment that every child always dream of. Presents expected to fall off from their

                                                 chimneys, empty socks hung by the fireplace awaits to be filled with candies and toys, kids

                                                 spending their time with their family, by hanging little miniatures on their own christmas trees.

 

 

                                                 It's a gift for us who have spent our entire life wiping our sweats off from our face from the tears;

                                                 the hardship; the hardwork that we have gone through the year until December comes.

                                              

                                                 But not for these two people who seems to be trapped in their own little world, away from home.

 


 

          "I don't know how could we change this fast, this soon. We used to be chasin' around together in my parents old porch, until we fell of the porch

         and ended up in the greeny bushes. And that moment when we were in our hometown, and we jumped in the waterfall until our parents disciplined us to

         stay in our own rooms for 2 days. Well, we still could get away with it at that day. But, what happened to us?"

 

 

        "“We all wear masks, and the time comes when we cannot remove them without removing some of our skin”

Chapter 1: I know I've already said it but I have to say it again. You are amazing!
My favourite line has to be 'It’s nice to have some skinship moment with her bestfriend when he is single,she doesn’t feel so sinful like that.'

Chapter 1: Your story was a bit messy for this one-shot (or maybe because I'm too dumb to get it) because I didn't really get it until I read the author's note. I got confused because initially, Yoona pulled a prank on Kai and both of them started laughing, hinting to me as a reader that these 2 have a great relationship and were enjoying the time but then suddenly, in the next moment, they became awkward, and had that serious talk with a solemn atmosphere, which is supposed to show a reader that these 2 have grown distant from one another and there is something that is preventing them from getting back to where they were last time, which leaves me confused because earlier on I thought they were having fun and there's nothing wrong with their relationship :)
