Ephemeral
Description
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”
