A few days passed, and I spent them buying things for Christmas. I'm buying presents, Christmas ornaments, and various foods and ingredients to make Christmas treats.
I plan to make this Christmas special! After all, Christmas is a time of happiness, and even if the important part of the holiday is the symbolism and family unity, I still want to enjoy it and just for this moment, not think about anything bad.
"What do you think of this, Septarion? The tree looks really cute, right?" I say with an excited smile, showing off the decorated Christmas tree. It's a plastic tree, but I tried my best to make it colorful and vibrant.
"Yes, Ayane, it's truly beautiful. It's also great to see you finally spending a little money on yourself. Who are you planning to invite for Christmas?" he asks, making me look at him with a hint of sadness.
