Christmas Eve is the most fun time. The cities have started to be brightly decorated with various kinds of lights, and also Christmas trees. And there is also someone who looks like Santa Claus to entertain children.

With the snow falling, Seoul is getting more vibrant. Although the weather is cold, but they can feel the warmth with relatives and family on Christmas Eve. The shops that line the streets of the city are crowded with people who are enjoying the beautiful night.

A long brown haired girl walks down the sidewalk that many people go through alone. His body in a black dress wrapped in a pretty lacy coat.

Aurora looks at the beauty of Seoul on Christmas Eve, it is very lively. I heard Christmas songs

Soft in his ears, as well as flickering lights that make him stunned. Really, it was so fun. She hates snow and winter, but Christmas Eve is an exception.

Aurora smiled faintly. Christmas brings back fond memories of the past when her mother was still around. They always spend Christmas Eve decorating the Christmas tree or drinking hot chocolate in front of the fireplace. And the passing of his mother, made the Christmas nights he passed felt different.

Tapp….!!

Aurora stopped her steps as her hazel eyes caught the silhouette of a young man walking up to her among the many pedestrians crowding the sidewalk. Aurora stared at the figure without blinking a single bit. His heart started pounding and his eyes could not escape the slightest bit of the figure.

He stood out to me….

Among many people….

As he approached me from a distance….

My heart started to beat….

The little things he does….

It started to have a big and small meaning to me…

I finally realized that I was in love with him.…

Aurora still did not blink even as the figure stood before her in such a close distance. Both of his hands held his chest which continued to beat violently.

His heart felt like it wanted to explode just by looking at the cold but stinging gaze.

“I found you.” Speak the Sky and immediately disperse the long daydream of Aurora.

“Ceiling?! How did you get here?” shocked Aurora.

“I'm looking for you,”

“You're looking for me?” Sky nodded. “Why?”

“Because I want to spend Christmas Eve with you. Come on,” Sky grabbed Aurora's hand and then clasped it. Aurora looked at her hand held by the sky and smiled widely.

“Where do you want to take me? Don't tell me if the Han River is again?! I'm already too bored if I have to go there again and again,”

Sky chuckles. “Of course not,” the answer is.

It would be a lie to say that he does not like Aurora, because in reality the love in his heart for the girl has bloomed and blossomed. The sky could have declared it now. But he thought twice about doing it. He fears Aurora will turn him down and get hurt because she has to return to China next week. The sky chose to harbor that feeling in his heart rather than having to express it.

“Alright, come.” The sky again held Aurora's hand. And the two walked together to the accessories store which was meant by Aurora.

“Huwaaa..”.

Shining saw so many accessories that dazzled his eyes. Ranging from earrings, bracelets, necklaces, hair clips to bag hangers. Aurora who was so enthusiastic entered first and left the Sky just like that. While the Sky could only sigh and snort amusedly. Aurora's actions can sometimes make her amused to death.

The young man lowered his intention to go inside as he sensed the vibrations on his phone stored inside his long vest pocket. And Naoza's name adorns her brightly lit phone screen. Instead of accepting. The sky refused the call.

“Sky, what are you doing there? Come here and help me choose this.” Aurora exclaimed who was then nodding back by the Sky.

The sky approached Aurora who was busy choosing earrings and hair clips. The girl showed some and asked Sky to help pick her. “Sky, which do you think is better?” aurora asked enthusiastically.

“I think both are good. You can take both.” Answer Sky gives advice.

“Do you think so?” Sky nodded.

Aurora smiled broadly. “Alright, I'll take both.”

The sky saw a beautiful necklace lined with cherry blossom petals. The young man took the necklace and then put it on Aurora. “Ceiling, what is this?” aurora was a little surprised.

“I want you to keep me in mind even though later we will be separated by distance and time.”

Aurora's heart instantly melted after hearing what Heaven had just said. Does that mean the two of them can't see each other again? Is the sky gone and will not return? Just thinking about it already scared Aurora to death.

The girl turned around. His position and the sky were facing each other. “Does that mean you can't see each other again? Did you leave and not come back?” aurora asked as she locked the gray eyes of the Sky. The girl bit her lower lip, trying not to cry.

“I don't know yet. If I had any reason to return to this country, I would definitely return.” Answer Sky.

“Can't I make you an excuse to come back, Sky?” jessica screams.

Aurora wiped away her tears that suddenly flowed in her fertilizer. “Looks like I'm flickering,” hurriedly Aurora wiped her tears before Sky noticed it. Then the girl turned around and left the sky just like that.

The sky overtook Aurora who was paying for her groceries. Sky took out some money from his wallet which he then gave to the cashier who was calculating the amount Aurora had to pay.

“Where else do you want to go after this?” ask Sky.

Aurora looked at the young man. “Maybe home. I want to spend Christmas with my family.” Her speech. And the Sky nodded in response.

All the way home. Not a word came out from the lips of Aurora or the Sky. Both are silent and dissolve in their respective activities. Like Aurora who was just silent while staring out the window. While the Sky focused on the snowy road ahead there.

Every now and then Heaven glanced at the girl sitting beside him and tried to read what the girl was thinking. But it can't. The sky really wanted to know what Aurora was thinking right now. But can't, he really can't read Aurora's mind.

The girl closed her eyes and lived the song she played through a pair of headsets hanging from her ears. Sondia's First Love that Aurora is listening to right now.

He felt that the song represented his current feelings, even though Heaven was not his first love. But each verse in her song lyrics describes what the girl felt.
