Snow falls down the fences of the playground in a horizonal blur. While Ran Haitani's sleepy eyes watches over his younger brother Rindou makes little snowman out of the fallen snow in the ground. He hates getting wet and being outside, but if going outside to make snowmans that make his younger brother happy, he choose to stay.

"Brother! Brother! Look what I made!"

Rindou made a smile as he showed his big brother the snowman he make out of the tiny ice white crystals. His hands were red and Ran can almost visualize the cold air that coming out from his younger brother's breathe. Hurriedly he took out his scarf and wrapped it around to his little younger brother. He also starts blowing his warm breathe at Rindou's hand to lessen its redness.

"We really need to get back." Ran hissed and carried his younger brother at his back. "You might get cold."

"When will daddy visits us again? He supposed to be here. Specially in this times." Rindou cried. "Does he still loved us? Tell him, we dont need his money. We need him. Specially today, Its.. Christmas. I dont want any toys. Being with him would be enough."

Rindou's words feel like a stab in a heart to Ran's. He couldn't find the right answers. He couldn't tell what is the reason why their father merely visits them, and worst, not. He also didn't came on their birthdays. That made Ran have a grudge into their own father.

"We don't need him. We can live as long as we have eachother. Dont worry. Big brother is always here to protect you." Ran said as Rindou leaned on his shoulders.

"I'll try my best not to be your burden.."

"You will never be. You will always be my otherhalf." Ran smiled and Rindou giggled.

"You will always be right here bro?"

"Ofcourse I will, you idiot. Nothing could break us apart." Ran smiles and wonders the playground. "Forever I'll be right by your side."

Thats how the two of them celebrates the Christmas Eve. Its the season to be jolly, as it always describe in a line of a song. This season is for attending parties, gatherings, decking the halls-and, of course a christmas tree would complete a house with its festive decorations and checking out all the magical light displays. Not to mention spending Christmas while listening to christmas songs on repeat while exchanging gifts with your loved ones. Thats how a normal Christmas eve would work. But not to these two lost souls.
