Dear santa

I never asked God for anything.

But on this birthday, I will ask

I wish I could see him one more time.

P.

Turn on the music and listen to it to enjoy the Christmas atmosphere.

Miracle in December

24 Dec.

7:00 a.m.

Do you believe in miracles? I never believed it until I saw it myself. I can only hope that everything I encounter is the truth, right? You weren't dreaming, were you? Please..if God hears my voice May every story you have encountered be true.

“Happy birthday, Pi,” said a young woman in an apron before handing him a present.

"Thank you. Really, just wish me well and I'll be happy. You don't have to give me a gift."

“How can it be? It's P's birthday. So, do you have any plans to go anywhere today?”

“I intend to go to the park. Sit and think about work."

“Even on your birthday, do you still think about work? But in this cold weather, can I still go out and sit?”

“The work of a writer has no fixed holidays. It hasn't snowed yet, so you can still go out and sit. I think I'll go in the late morning. Please, it won't be that cold.”

"Anyway, wear thick clothes or you'll get sick. Bring an umbrella with you in case it snows. I watched the news this morning and saw that it said it would snow on Christmas Day."

“Christmas tomorrow. It probably won't rain on Christmas Eve today.”

"It's better to prevent it than to fix it. Carry it with you in case you get sick and it will stop being fun."

“Yes, I'll take it with me. Please go prepare yourself first.”

"See you soon. Happy birthday again."

At the end of the conversation, the two of them went their separate ways. I walked back into the house and found my father bringing food to the table. Mom, on the other hand, puts the cooking equipment into the dishwasher. The abundance of food on the table indicates that today is someone's special day.

"Is it here? Someone gave you a present and cut off your face."

“Phi Cher gave it to me. Made a lot of food today.”

“It's my child's birthday. Go wash your hands and come eat.”

“Yes, father.”

I walked in and washed my hands in the kitchen before walking out and sitting at the dining table to eat. There was so much food that I thought it was impossible to eat it all. We lived in a village. It is a peaceful city with good weather. My father is American and my mother is half Japanese and half Russian.

Therefore, the appearance of my hair in many ways People said he was handsome, many people said he was cute. But most of them will be praised as cute more often. With my father's turquoise eye color and 175 cm height, the caramel brown hair color made my eye color stand out immediately. And accepts well the oval face that got the facial structure from the mother. I've gotten used to it and I don't pay much attention to appearances.

“Are you going to the public area like usual today?” Mom asked as she put away the dishes after everyone had finished eating.

“Yes, probably going to the same garden.”

“I go every year, so you don't get bored, right?”

“No, I think the weather is just fine. I want to go when it hasn't snowed yet, or it will snow and I won't be able to sit.”

“Mommy has prepared some snacks in a box for you. Don't forget to take it with you.”

“Yes, Mom, then I'll go get ready in a moment.”

I walked up to the room to take a shower and change a little, putting on a cream colored turtleneck sweater and black pants. It's a HEATTECH style that helps add warmth in winter like this. before layering it with a black coat again I walked over and prepared my iPad and AirPods and put them in a cloth bag.

I walked down and prepared a water bottle for eating outside. Before Mom walked over and picked up a box of snacks and put them in her bag.

"I'll go first."

“Don't be too cold, child. Tomorrow, on Christmas Day, the little one will come home early.”

"okay"

“Be careful, child.”

After saying goodbye to my parents, I walked to the bus stop. Just ride two stops and you'll be there. I was born on Christmas Eve My mother used to complain that I should have held off and wanted Christmas to happen more, but I couldn't take it. I wanted to come out and see the world first. As for the little ones, they must be children. My older sister married her husband for a few years and has two children together, twin boys and girls, who are very cute and naughty.

As for me? Completely single, not even having anyone to talk to. Maybe it's because I'm a very private person and don't go out and meet people much. Because of my work as a writer, I usually stay at home or in some park near my house. Who will he go to meet?

When I arrived at my destination park, I walked to find a shaded place. under the big tree first. Once we had a place, we spread out the cloth we had prepared to put our bags down first. Grab a food container and a water bottle and arrange it at an angle and place it on a pad as a prop for taking photos.

I do this every time. years on my own birthday until it has become a tradition on my birthday. I've been doing this for over five years. After taking photos, I'm preparing to upload them to my IG story. Put in the caption '

Happy birthday to me.’

Add a space to a new line as '

On this day, I wish myself a life filled to the brim with happiness.’

Then I pressed post and less than ten minutes had passed. When I saw the post, they sent messages wishing me luck. I smiled at the messages I saw and chose not to answer right now. I intend to reply later. I would like to admire the nature in front of me first.

Parks near Christmas tend to be less crowded. That's why I like to come and sit here often. On your own birthday Sitting and listening to music while eating desserts that mother had prepared for me. In fact, I didn't intend to come to work, just to relax outside the house.

wad!

“Huh?”

Suddenly there was a small ball. rolled onto the foot No, it wouldn't be called rolling. It wouldn't be called being thrown at my feet. It would be cheaper. It's a ball that fits in the palm of your hand. It was like a ball that helped exercise my father's palm. I picked it up before turning left and right in case I saw the owner of the ball.

"Sorry, it's ours."

A tall man, probably around 190cm, wearing a light blue shirt. It seemed a little tight as his chest muscles made the shirt look really tight. With black slacks worn with a dark gray coat, dark facial structure, good looks, it can be said that God intended to shape them. It wouldn't be an exaggeration.

Goes well with light gray eyes. The eyes that made me fall in love with him for four years. Yes, he is the person I secretly liked for four years in college. I was shocked to see him. Turn around and see if what you see is true. Because he and I have never met since we graduated.

He was a friend from the same class in college. He is the person that everyone looks up to. He's someone who shouldn't be out of reach, so I've always had a crush on him and never told him. But we are friends on IG, I followed him first and then he followed me back. That is the only thing I am most happy about in my life, even more happy than when I finished my research.

“Charlie”

“I'm so glad you remember our names. I thought it had been forgotten.”

"Who... will forget her? She's going to die."

"Not that much. So... are you coming alone? Can we sit with you?"

“Ah... Uh! Please come.”

I smoothly moved the food container and water bottle closer to myself to make room for another person to sit. He was quite tall when he sat down next to him. Our bodies look very different. I think I'm tall but he looks thicker than me and makes me look like a scrawny person. I'm really tall, but I don't exercise or build muscle. So the body is not very thick, it is more thin.

“Come regularly.”

“We saw it in the story. You come every year?” Did they watch my stories too and remember?! I thought he was just scrolling through it.

"Oh, we come every year on my birthday."

“Happy birthday.”

Smiles and blessings sent As a result, my face became hot. People who like to come say good wishes and smile like this. My heart is working very hard. What should I do? Will they know?

“Thank you. So why are you here?”

“Come to play. Today is a holiday, tomorrow is Christmas, so the office has a long holiday.”

“Ah~ like this.”

There is only conversation between us. He turned his head to look at the atmosphere in front of him while I just sat and looked at the side of his face. I've asked myself many times why I haven't stopped liking him yet. I've tried to give up many times, but I've never been able to do it. The more I found out that he had been single since graduation, the more I liked him even more.

Even though I don't have enough courage to say hello to him. Just seeing him through stories makes me happy. This is all I need.

“Where are you going?” he asked, turning to me.

“We don't have a plan. Probably sitting here for a long time. Until it was almost evening and then I went home."

"So... would you like to go on a trip?"

The smile and persuasive look he sent made me quickly turn around. I was so embarrassed I never thought I'd talk to him this much before. When we were in school, we hardly ever talked to each other. That's why it's said that our worlds have never met.

“Where?”

“Do you know how to play ice skating?”

"Ah, but I haven't played in a long time."

“Then let's go. It's considered a birthday celebration."

He stood up and extended his hand towards me. Do you think I will refuse? There's no harm in it. If this is a dream, let me dream for a long time. Just a little bit, don't wake up yet.

I put everything back in my bag and walked to his car.

Lamborghini

Another reason why we have never met is that he is a very good person at home. Called very rich So even though I don't know much about cars, just seeing the car brand's emblem is enough to know what brand it belongs to.

That's me, a middle-class kid. For children from rich families, it is quite difficult to live in the same society. The more I am a private person and don't like leaving the house, the more difficult it is.

“Where are you going to play?” I asked him while driving, his forearm forming a line making me swallow a little. Saying that I like him is not an exaggeration. I really like everything about him.

“The city square. He was organizing an event while driving and saw it.”

“So... why did you come around here?”

I decided to ask because I couldn't bear the doubt. My ordinary village was very far from his luxurious village, almost a different city, so I was even more curious about what he was doing near my village. It must have been a very long drive.

“I just want to drive around. When I realized it again, I had been sucked in by this city. I didn't think much before that it was a small town. It's so beautiful here at Christmas time.”

“Your village doesn't organize it?”

“Alright, but we're bored with the same old stuff. People who take expensive things Let's show off. This year our parents aren't with us and we're traveling abroad. This year, I'm lonely and alone.”

“Ah, just like this.”

“Already there, let's go down. You can put your bag in here first and just take your phone.”

“So you want that?”

"Um, let's put it this way. Our car has an anti-theft alarm. It won't go away."

"Oh..it doesn't have anything that valuable, so let me give it to you."

“You can do it.”

Charlie and I walked to the entrance to choose tickets to play. Mostly there are only children. Let's play. I handed the money to the aunt who was in charge of exchanging tickets before Charlie handed out the black card to the aunt. We all stopped in a small town. There are very few people here who use black cards, even though it's a small town. We don't have to ask for it at all.

"Excuse me, don't you have any cash? I don't have a card swiping machine."

"Ah.. right? I'm sorry, I didn't bring any cash with me."

"It's okay, we'll get it out for you."

"Is that so? Then we'll pay you back later."

“It's okay, that's all.”

"No, then we'll feed you food instead and then there's a restaurant where we can take you to stay."

“Will you go with us?”

"Yes, it's just the two of us together."

"Ah.. That's all right. Let's go."

I received the ticket from my aunt and walked to the skate shoe exchange area. After I exchanged it, I sat next to you to put on my shoes. My shoes were a little loose but the laces tightened them. Once he was there, he turned to look at the person next to him. After tying the rope, I saw that he had been sitting and looking at me for a long time.

“Wh-is there something wrong?”

“No, just thinking. Why haven't we talked before?”

Charlie held out his hand to me before I extended it to him. Then he walked me to the skating rink, his hand still holding my hand to keep me steady so as not to slip and fall.

Since I hadn't played for a long time, I had to cling to him for balance first and then slowly. adjust your body Soon I got used to it and started sliding forward without clinging to him. But he wouldn't let go of my hand even though I tried to pull it away.

"Better hold on, in case you fall you'll get it in time."

“We are fine. Falling doesn't hurt that much."

"But it's better not to fall, isn't it?"

"Ah... Okay, okay."

The skating rink is quite wide. We keep playing. without getting tired When both he and I don't want this moment to pass and want to stop time right here. I don't know if it was my imagination or not, but the hands holding each other felt so warm. Will he hear my pounding heart?

“Ah!”

I accidentally looked at his face and forgot to see that in front of me there was a child sliding in front of me, causing me to turn and dodge, but I diddge in the wrong position, causing me to dodge and crash into the railing on the side. But the force of the hands that held each other when he first pulled me in caused my whole body to slide and crash into his body. But because he's thick or has good balance, I'm not sure.

Keep us from falling together I looked at Charlie's arm around my waist and I didn't know how good it felt.

My back pressed against his chest, my breathing coming in short bursts from shock. As soon as I regained my composure, I immediately backed away from him.

“Thank you.”

“Almost there, see? It's good to hold your hand."

"Ah.. Well, we're okay now."

"Are you hungry? Let's go get something to eat."

"Just a little. Let's go get something to eat."

It was lunch time that day and we sat and ate for over an hour, almost two hours. I don't know if I'm imagining it or not, but everything around me today seems to be very much in the spirit of our trip. For the meal earlier, luckily he had a card swipe machine so Charlie paid for the entire meal instead, even though it was much more expensive than the ticket I had issued for him. If this were a dream, it would be the best dream I had on my birthday this year.

“Is there a recommended place in this city? As she is from this city.”

“Most of the time we like to go places that other people don't like to go.”

I say this jokingly because unlike other people, I like to live in the quietness of nature. It's more than just walking around in a city full of people. The day seems hectic and takes up too much energy for a low-energy person like me.

“Like where? Please take us.”

“Is there another garden you want to try?”

“Okay, give us directions.”

“I can.”

I gave directions to another park where people didn't like to come. Because there are too many trees Yes, people give just that. But on the other hand, I really like it. It is considered to be a safe zone during my childhood. When I'm uncomfortable, I come here often.

"Right here. You can park along the sidewalk."

I pointed out a spot for him to park before we walked out of the car. I didn't think we'd spend a day together like this. It made me like him even more. So much so that there are thoughts that seem a bit selfish. I want to see him every day, I want to talk to him. I want to have him next to me. But it's impossible.

“What's wrong?”

"Oh, I'm just thinking about something."

“She likes to be absent-minded. Is this a habit that writers ask for?”

"Did you know that I'm a writer?"

"Oh, you know, I always read the things you write."

“Ah... did you read it too?”

“Read to relieve stress after work. The language is very beautiful. We've secretly donated it many times already."

“Don't tell me that donates don't like to display their names. Is that you who transferred thousands at a time?”

“Too bad, now I know.”

“You don't have to give us that much.”

“We only give out work that we read and like. I didn't give it to everyone, but I wasn't the only one. Others gave it to me, but I really liked her work. Keep trying, we know it won't be easy but we'll give you encouragement.”

“Thank you. Really appreciate it.”

His words made me almost cry. Few people know how tiring writing is in order to write well in each story. At first, I put so much pressure on myself that I cried because the people around me didn't support me and kept telling me it would make me money. How many baht will it take to survive?

But today I have proven to myself that even though the amount of money each month is not as much as other famous writers, it is enough so that I don't have to borrow money from my parents to use it.

“Are you happy today?” He walked and stopped in front of me before looking and asking.

"Oh, I didn't think I'd get to see you. It's a birthday that's much more special than other years. Thank you."

“Thank you too.”

“We haven't done anything to her yet. What are you thanking us for?”

“Thank you for still being here and not going anywhere. I think we have good luck today too.”

“Huh? What does that mean?”

“For this evening, we want to take you home.”

"Oh.. It's okay. We can take the bus back."

“But having someone deliver it is better, right? Is our car uncomfortable to sit in?”

"It's fine, but I'm considerate."

“It's okay, we're happy. I have something to give as well, but I'll give it to you when we deliver it to your house."

“Alright then. But we can't come back late. Mother will be worried."

“Then let's go back in a while and walk around the park for a bit and then come back, okay?”

"Oh, all right."

We walked side by side down the walkway, so close that the backs of our palms touched. If I ask to hold his hand one more time, will that be okay? I really want to try catching it one more time. Before I could ask for permission, the other party inserted a finger into my hand.

“Hands are cold. Holding them like this is warmer, right?”

“Ah..ah!”

God hears my request, right? Damn, today I definitely used up all my merit points. Thank you very much to God. Next Thanksgiving, I will say a big prayer of thanks.

“So, do you have any plans for Christmas tomorrow?”

“Us? No, because my older sister and her family will come to visit the house and bring the children. If you come along, we'll probably celebrate in the house, you."

“If we were alone, there would be nothing. But if someone invites me, I'll probably go because I'm free for a long time.”

“So... if you don't mind, would you like to come celebrate Christmas with us?”

“Is that possible?”

“If you want to come, we welcome you.”

“Then we have to go home and prepare a present.”

“You don't have to, just come and eat together.”

"To give it to your grandchildren."

"Ah...actually, those little ones already got a lot of gifts. No need to, we feel sorry for the money for you."

"So, haha, let's go back. The weather is starting to get colder."

“Oh, you can go back.”

I don't know if I secretly let out a regretful tone to let the other party know or not. But I'm really disappointed. Why does the time in this day pass so quickly? I want ten more hours, but God probably won't give it to me.

Charlie drove me to the front of the house. The sky outside was already starting to dim and it was almost dark. I opened the car door and came down. To my surprise, he also came down. before he walked to the front of the car and opened the hood to reveal a bouquet of steaming yellow tulips.

He picked it up before closing the hood of the car and came to a stop in front of me and handed me the flowers with a smile.

“Happy birthday again. We're not sure if she'll like it or not, but I've seen her upload stories about tulips often. So I thought she might like it.”

"I like it.. I really like it. Thank you. It's very beautiful."

I took the bouquet of flowers and hugged them before smiling. My heart felt so full, like I had been pumped full of air. The first time I was this happy was when he followed me back on IG. But now I feel like I'm happier than I was at the first gift from him. Plus it was a gift on my own birthday. God must have used up all my merit points. So I have to make merit now.

I looked up at him before repeating my thanks. I felt myself smiling until my cheeks ached. I really want to tell him how I feel. But again, I was afraid. Should I tell him? The moment I'm Hesitating there. Snowflakes fell on the tulips. Makes me and him look up at the sky and see more snow gradually falling.

The true meaning of the first snow Does he know if I ask him if he can consider it a confession of love? I was too embarrassed to speak directly. So let's use the snow to help.

“Did you see the first snow?”

I was about to speak but was cut off by what he said. The sentence he said made me freeze. He really knew the meaning of that sentence, right? I wasn't thinking about myself, was I? But let me think about myself a little.

“Ah! See, I'm so happy to see the first snow with you.”

“We are happy too.”

The interlacing lines and the distance between the faces began to shorten further. It was Charlie who reached out and cupped P's face. Before he leaned down and placed a soft kiss on his lips. But the sound that kept the two of them conscious was the sound of their hearts beating rapidly.

He didn't think of it himself. Charlie likes him, right? I could hear his heart beating very fast. The lips that were gently attached slowly Move and nibble before sending out your tongue to touch. His little lips were a gesture of permission, of course P gave him permission slowly. Opening your mouth slightly to allow Charlie to flicker his tongue in greeting.

We stood there kissing each other and neither one felt cold. A soft kiss, the palm that supported him gently caressed his face. This made P have to reach out and hold onto the other person's coat to keep himself from fainting. Charlie slowly pulled away from the kiss. Before using his thumb to caress his thin lips, he smiled at P before pressing a final kiss to the smaller man's forehead again.

“Charlie is…”

“We will assume that you agree. That's the answer, right?"

"Ah..Ah! Sure, why not?"

“Thank you. Then I'll see you tomorrow. Hurry and go home, you're all cold."

“Uh...you drove back carefully. If you've arrived... Can we please send a message to tell us? We are worried.”

“It doesn't bother me at all. I'll send you a message when I charge it."

At the end of that sentence, I stood and sent him into the car until he disappeared out of sight. Damn it, I can die. What day is it? I'm dying of embarrassment. I didn't even expect him to kiss me but he told me he liked me. Since when did he like me? God, thank you for a great day. Today

Bang!!!

“Phi, wake up, my sister and grandchildren. The baby is coming!!”

heavily!

A knock at the door followed by his mother's voice made him startle. He woke up and looked at the clock. It was now 6:00 a.m. Damn it, was it too early? But wait, what day is it today?

25 Dec. Christmas Day

Last night was... Is it a dream? I looked around the room and couldn't find the bouquet of tulips I had received. Does that mean it's a dream? Sadness and regret come rushing in. Even though it was a very good dream, deep down I would rather it be true.

The touch of his palm and the kiss he received were so real. So true that he didn't think it was a dream and didn't want it to be just a dream.

“P! Did you hear Mom? Come down and help me get ready!”

"Yes, I hear you. I'll go down."

I answered my mother before going to the bathroom to take care of myself. Finished, I took out the phone and put it in my pants pocket before walking down to help my mother set the table and wait for the children and older sister to arrive. Why did they come so early? After setting the dining table, I walked over and sat on the living room sofa with my father before my eyes caught sight of a yellow tulip inserted in a vase next to the TV. Damn it.

It's a dream, isn't it? Or did your mother buy it?

“Dad, did you buy this tulip?”

“Father doesn't know either. Try asking Mom.” I immediately walked over to Mom.

“Mom, did you buy the yellow tulip next to the TV to wear?”

“What are you buying? Weren't we the ones who walked into the house with flowers last night? Before he smiled a little and smiled a big smile and told Mom to find a vase to put it in for me. I'm forgetful, I'm really young.”

"..." He was completely shocked by what his mother said. It's not a dream..?!!

“Oh, and the person we said would come to celebrate with. What time will you come so Mom can prepare food in case?”

“Huh?!”

“So the person we said we invited to celebrate Christmas with? When I came back from outside, I walked over and told my mother that there would be one more person coming to celebrate with me. Then I walked up to my room and my mother called or asked anything but I couldn't hear her.”

“Ah...uh, that is.”

“Come on, you're stuck. Call him and ask what time he will come. Let's go set the table first." After saying that, Mother's figure immediately disappeared into the kitchen.

Ding!!

Charlie :

The charger is in front of the house. Please come out and get something. I've got something for you to help carry.

God, thank you for giving me this gift this Christmas. Today and in the years to come I won't be lonely. Alone again Thank you for the gift and promise to take good care of it.

END.

***Wright based his beliefs on Korean things. He said that

If someone comes and says to us, 'Did you see the first snow?' means he's asking for our love or nowadays most people tend to use it as a confession of love and a boyfriend/girlfriend request. My son replied that he saw it as an agreement~

Thank you for following.

Merry Christmas And happy new year

In advance
