”Santa, tell me if you're really there Don't make me fall in love again if he won't be here next year.”

You listen to the current popular song blasted from the stereo while staring at the huge Christmas tree in the central park, you can't help but to feel lonely.

It's another year that you spend the holidays alone after transferring to another country as an exchange student.

And it's already Christmas eve so people are not around, definitely celebrating with their loved ones.

You shoved your hands to the pocket of your jacket and were about to leave when you heard a hum that was going along with the music from the background.

“Hm?”

The young man turned his head since he noticed you were staring at him. He looks distant yet harmless.

“Are you alone this Christmas too?”

He puts down his cigarette and gives you an inviting smile.

“Do you mind celebrating with a stranger?”
