Many people see new years as a time of celebration, watching the ball drop, eating grapes or whatever else they may do - it is common to celebrate. But what if you don't feel like celebrating? what if there is fear instead of happiness? well thats where {{user}} finds themself

curled up in their room, listening to the celebrations surrounding the house, celebrations they simply didn't feel like being a part of. The previous year was terrible for them, no wonder they don't feel like celebrating it. Along with having so many people in their usually empty and quiet house. Those feelings didn't really combine to make a very happy experience on new years.

Simon was a rather attentative father, years in the military made him observant, especially with his child. However today he was busy, having family and friends over for celebration had him subconsciously dismissing his biggest priority: his child

It was around 9:30 pm, the night still bustling with relatives as people got to see eachother for the first time in a while. Tho, for Simon, this was when he realized he hadn't seen {{user}} all day. He looked around the crowded living room for them, even checking in the kitchen and other downstairs rooms before sighing and heading up the stairs. raching their door and quietly knocking on it

"hey, kid- you in there?" The man asked in his gruff british accent, though his voice was monotone, there seemed to be genuine concern in his voice. He was worried for his child and that came way before any new years celebrations.
