You know Dasher, and Dancer, and Prancer, and Vixen,

Comet, and Cupid, and Donder and Blitzen

But do you recall

The most famous reindeer of all

The lights on both sides of the street make Vienna's Kartner street look busier than usual on Christmas Eve. The upbeat music that is often heard during this time of the festival is what people call the Festival of Happiness. Families get together to eat together and spend time decorating the Christmas tree.

A teenage girl with pale skin Slender eyes in an Asian style Her long red hair was tied up at the top. She rubbed both her hands before shoving them into the pockets of her cream-colored coat, amidst the crowds of people shopping for gifts on Christmas Eve night. She just wanted to walk and soak up the atmosphere of Christmas abroad.

In the land of classical music that anyone who doesn't even love classical music would want to visit at least once, it's been a week since she was in the city this night. Tomorrow there will be a concert by a world famous orchestra at the Golden Hall. She herself is one of the musicians performing at the event tomorrow.

A young woman smiles at herself in the mirror of a music store, smiling at the amount of good fortune she has received. If it weren't for that woman, she would definitely never be standing here smiling in the middle of Vienna like this.

The sound of a piano from inside the store caught her attention. A familiar melody invited her to reach out and push open the door. The sound of the bell from the shop door could not keep the little girl who played the instrument from taking her eyes off the instrument in front of her. This song is

Red Nosed Reindeer

She remembered the melody by heart. She stood and listened to the little girl play the piano, closing her eyes to absorb every note of this simple song. For those learning to play the piano.

The lyrics refer to a Christmas story that tells of Rudolph the reindeer with a nose so red that he was constantly teased and bullied by other reindeer. Santa Claus meets Rudolph on a snowy Christmas Eve and stumbles upon Rudolph's bright red nose, which is perfect for fire. Leading the way on the sleigh journey, inviting the little deer to be the front of Santa Claus's sleigh.

This story also reminded her of another similar story about the reindeer Kim Dahyun and his Santa Claus.

Minatozaki Sana...

Going back to 2 years ago...

Kim Dahyun, age 19 I received a document carefully wrapped in an envelope from my advisor to give to my parents. She sighed and sat down on the bleachers next to the basketball court for the third time. Dahyun had to be summoned by her parents because she had to take a math retake. Taking extra classes from school until 9 p.m. didn't help her grades one bit.

Moreover, this time there was also a lack of submission of the university entrance exam questionnaire that all third year students are required to submit. Dahyun crumpled the document into a ball and threw it into the trash can next to the bleachers..but it didn't go into the trash bin.

"Wow...so accurate he should come back and be the center for the team," the tall girl said teasingly. Before sitting on the bleachers one step down from Dahyun, followed by another tall friend who chose to sit next to Dahyun.

“Shut up, Shinbee. You know that's impossible.” Shinbee shrugged before getting up to warm up and prepare for basketball practice.

“Did you get called the guardian again? Duh.. I saw the Shinbi walking around complaining to you all the way.” Dahyun only nodded in response to his friend.

“You, you can just answer the questionnaire and send it. This questionnaire is used by the school as a criterion for setting up teaching schedules for students entering university. The whole class is waiting for you alone, and you're giving up like this. Jinyoung deserves it. Sun Saeng will be angry.”

"I'm not going to send it... It's just bad luck that Sunsaeng came to demand this when there was nothing to answer.” The stubborn friend's answer always made Jie or Jugyulkyung shake their heads tiredly. Dahyun patted his friend on the shoulder, urging him to hurry down and warm up. Kyulkyung looked up from tying his shoelaces. Turned around and spoke to Dahyun with a serious expression.

I don't know if it's bad luck or your thoughts that are fickle, but no matter what, me and Bee will always be by your side no matter what you choose, friend." Finished speaking, he turned to smile and encourage his friend before Follow and join Shinbi.

19-year-old Kim Da-hyun always thought that she was unlucky. Her first misfortune was that her mother died when she was 10 years old, leaving her and her father, who was a senior executive at Dah's father's pharmaceutical company. Yeon is a very strict person. This is the second misfortune. With a job and social image from the company's various social projects, everyone

They praised him as being like Santa Claus. But who knew that everyone's Santa Claus transformed into a manipulative demon at home? He planned to have Dahyun take the entrance exam for the Pharmacy Faculty of the famous university he graduated from, so that when he graduated he would be able to help with his business. The company did, but Dahyun's father never asked if she was willing to follow the path he had drawn for her. Dahyun just did as he said.

Study only what he wants you to study. The child is the face of Dahyun's parents, probably just a wooden doll of his father, but anything that isn't like that usually doesn't work out. Dahyun never paid attention to the path he was taking, never paid attention to his studies to the point of having to retake exams every semester. You're not stupid..you're just stubborn.

Her close friend Hwang Shin Bi always says this sentence. Maybe that's true.

Third misfortune..having good relatives who are an elder..but if the relatives bark a lot, it's worth finding a muzzle to cover your mouth and apologizing for being rude to adults. But every time there is a family reunion, Dahyun is a favorite topic of conversation. And today, too, she had to prepare to attend dinner with all the relatives who were ready to raise their children. His own things can always press her.

The only good thing about the family reunion is that she gets to play the piano. Dahyun isn't someone who can't find her own identity, but what she loves most is being deprived because the love of music might distract her from her studies. all gone (this is the fourth misfortune)

Crunch, crunch, crunch.

'Mr. Kim Dong Seok'

The name of the person that appeared on the phone's screen was her father. Dahyun looked up at the sky and sighed, ending the call before shouldering his backpack and walking down from the stands. Without forgetting, he turned to say goodbye to two friends who were practicing basketball on the court.

As she got into the car, her father scolded her for being late and wasted time traveling to the hotel where the appointment was. Dahyun apologized in a low voice. Dong Seok looks at his daughter, who sits still leaning against the car window.

“When your teacher called Dad..did you fail the test again?” he said quietly. Even though my heart was almost about to explode with anger.

"It's good that the teacher told Dad himself, so I don't have to tell him myself."

Dong Seok pulls away his face in an attempt to calm his only daughter's emotions. She is a stubborn child with bright eyes, and even though he doesn't have much time to raise her, he knows this side of his daughter very well. “Deducting 15,000 won per week until grades improve.”

Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer

had a very shiny nose

and if you ever saw it

you would even say it glows.

All of the other reindeer

used to laugh and call him names

They never let poor Rudolph

play in any reindeer games.

Dong Seok's driver brings the father and son to a stop on the steps in front of the hotel. Dahyun, who had gotten off the bus earlier, stopped for a moment to let his father walk ahead and then followed his relatives. Everyone arrived together. Dahyun bowed her head humbly to greet all her relatives before making her way towards the black piano that the hotel had prepared for her relatives.

Including her father) who likes to listen to classical music while eating very much, it is something Dahyun doesn't understand. If you like classical music this much, what's the point of keeping her from it?

When his fingertips touched the keys, even without practicing before, Dahyun was able to play smoothly. music sound

Nocturneop.9

of

Chopin

Dahyun's piano is everything. She believes that she can communicate with her mother through the sound of the piano. Her mother taught her to play the piano since she could remember. Gain So she only had a mother who was everything until her mother left.

Mom is Dahyun's Santa Claus. Dahyun is mommy's little Rudolph. Favorite story that Mom always tells Dahyun before bed. Dahyun is a child with developmental delays, speaking two years later than other children his age, which has caused relatives to frequently use slanderous words until now. Despite his slow development, Dahyun has a talent for music. But a mother who understands you Therefore, it is not unusual for Dahyun, a child who is attached to her mother, to lose her focus when the thing that holds her back is gone.

When the song ended, all the relatives at the table applauded. Dahyun stood up and bowed slightly. The little girl, who Dahyun recognized as the daughter of the eldest brother of the family, brought Dahyun a headband decorated with antlers.

“Ada-hyun, can I give you a headband for Uncle to play with the red-nosed reindeer?”

Dahyun smiled as her little niece took the headband and clipped it on her round head before starting to play the song she had requested. The relatives began to gather together and talk.

“Little Dahyun, the older she gets, the more she looks like her mother. Her looks are cute and she can play the piano so smoothly, there's nothing wrong with that."

"Your daughter seems to be doing well in school, right? Dong Seok, you're relieved. When she was little, when she saw her not speaking, she thought she was disabled. Haha."

“Uncle, we haven't seen each other for many years, so you probably don't know that Dong Seok's father is sensitive about his daughter's academic performance.”

“My daughter, Ji Yeon, just took the entrance exam for the administration department of a university in England. Father Dong Seok must look like you. It's not that I want my daughter to play so much that she forgets her studies, otherwise it's good, but playing music all day like her mother is is bad."

Loud!!!

Dahyun stood up and slammed the piano keys hard and quickly walked out of the atmosphere, ignoring her father's angry calls. She walked far away until she stopped at a church. She walked inside and sat down. Sitting on the long chair closest to the door of the church, the tears she was unable to hold back, she let them flow down in streams, staining both of her cheeks.

It was early evening and there were still a number of Christians coming to find a place to stay in this church. Dahyun had his arm draped over the back of the front chair. Bending her head in an effort to keep her cries quiet, she didn't notice that someone else was sitting in the empty spot next to her.

The woman with long, straight, raven hair looked down at Dahyun at the same level as she was resting her face on her arms. She was startled when she realized that a stranger was sitting there. The woman was smiling widely at Dahyun.

“Why are you sitting here crying, little deer?” Dahyun tilted his head from his arms to the side. Confused by the sudden situation in front of us There was a woman staring at her face, which was very beautiful. Her round eyes slowly lifted from the smile that made Dahyun almost forget everything that had happened before. The smile of the woman in front of her seemed to have a spell on her. conform

She was still wearing the deer antler headband that her grandchild had given her, so the woman called her Little Deer. She reached up to take the headband off. But the strange woman grabbed her hand and shook her head while laughing softly.

“Don't take it off, it's cute and suits you well.”

“I was at the dining room table when you walked out. You probably didn't notice. I'm Minatozaki Sana, nice to meet you." Sana held out her hand for Dahyun to shake as a greeting. Dahyun just lightly touched it before slowly lowering her hand. She was wondering about the restaurant reserved today. There are only her relatives. And how did this woman get in here? It was like Sana could read her thoughts. She smiled widely before answering Dahyun's questioning expression.

“If you could just greet the people in that room for a bit, you would know that it wasn't just your relatives there. My father is the majority partner of your company.”

Dahyun nodded in agreement before stretching himself back in the chair and sighing. Sana saw the despondent expression and thought of it fondly. She laughed softly and put her hand on the shoulder of the deer, who looked distraught. “What's the matter? Can you tell my sister? Hey, look at him crying until his nose was as red as Rudolph, the one you played the piano with just now. ”

Sana's little deer looked down at the ground and immediately looked up at her, causing Sana to act confused. Maybe she was too careless with someone she was just meeting for the first time, even though the other person was a high school student.

“If you don't tell me, that's fine. I heard what the aunts said. They said things about her and her mother that I didn't like and then she walked away. I was worried about her so I followed her out. Even though we don't know each other, I know your mother. Her mother often calls to tell me about her.”

“I'm sure my Miss Joohyun isn't the vain woman that those aunts understand. You know this yourself. Don't take those people's words into consideration.” Sana paused for a moment, looking into the eyes of the child in front of her.

“She loves music, and her niece knows how to show everyone that she's ready to do what she loves. Father, you will understand that you may have heard these words countless times. You may be arguing with me in your heart. She may not be right for what she's doing, but she knows what she's best for. Anything that is done with love will come out good.

I really liked the song you played just now.”

“Your mother is grateful to me. If she is in trouble, she can come to me. Idikatok SANA1229 Don't forget to add me."

Dahyun didn't say anything, she just met her eyes and stared at Sana's mesmerizing smile..

Ever since her mother passed away, she never thought she'd meet Santa Claus again until today. A reindeer like Dahyun meets a very special gift giver, Santa Claus, who gives inspiration, hope and love... Santa Claus named Minato Sakisana
