~*~ Author POV
Jimin tried to not appear unnatural as he brewed the peppermint coffee. He had scrawled the name on the cup with his rushed handwriting. It was near indecipherable. Jimin hoped it would hide the truth.
He had chosen a cup with a simple candy cane on it, praying that it wasn't one of the drawings on the note he had left the man.
If he had put alittle more time into the art on top of the coffee, he would never admit it. Plus there was no one waiting after Jin so it wasn't like it was going to be an issue.
"Jin" Jimin called out, hoping his voice didn't shake. Jin stood swiftly and took the drink with careful hands, he also dropped alittle bit of change into the tip jar.
"Thank you, have a nice day" Jin smiled, well Jimin guessed he did, but it hidden behind his mask.
"You too" Jimin called out to him as he exited the cafe.
His legs could practically give out. He clutched the counter as he tried to stop his heart from racing in his chest.

Jin had had a tough day, his business course was out to get him, of that he was sure. Why did it have to have so many concept he couldn't grab. But they had been the final lectures of the semester so he was now free for the holidays.
So he had taken a trip to a coffee shop Yoongi recommended, apparently the coffee was top notch in his opinion. So Jin had decided to treat himself and visit.
Walking into the accommodation was like walking into a sauna compared to the frigid temperature outside. Jin savoured the feeling, feeling life being breathed back into his finger tips (the hand that wasn't holding the coffee cup).
He had been checking his mailbox routinely, ever since the first small note had shown up. He wanted to feel the same amount of comfort he had with the first one, for the first time again. The small note he had already received was read repetitively on bad days when he needed just alittle bit of comfort.
He almost made an embarrassing noise of excitement when he saw the small note tucked into the corner of his mailbox where it had been dropped inside. Thankful that his mask was hiding his overly excited face.
He practically ran up the stairs to his room, his numb fingers hurt alittle when he had to bend the joints to open his door.
He quickly shed his outdoor clothing, hanging them up in their respective places, he took a sip of the coffee, it was still warm after the 10 minute trip from the coffee shop.
He cranked the heating up a bit more, though the room was small it barely held any heat.
He took a seat on his bed, smiling down at the note in his hands. It was slightly bigger than the other one in size. There was a Christmas themed sticker on it, a small Rudolf.
Jin opened it carefully, not wanting to damage it, it felt too precious to do so. The note was just as heart warming as the last one.
The sender had wrote a little Christmas well wishes message and at the end a Christmas song lyric, that fit to the theme of the note perfectly. Jin held it to his chest again.
Later when he disposed of the coffee cup in the kitchen bin, if he had only looked longer he would have seen the same candy cane drawing on both the cup and the note. But he did not, the sender continuing to remain anonymous to those who don't pay attention to the little details.

Yoongi had received the text message from Jin thanking him for the cafe suggestion. He had sent a simple thumbs up in response, not wanting to converse.
He had been playing the whole day, his charity money hadn't been good, the snow had put off many people from going out. Yoongi supposed it was all down to personal preference in the end.
He snatched the messages out of his note box, scowling when he noticed one of them was about his rent being overdue. He hadn't collected enough money to pay it.
When he dropped the stuff off in his room, he almost missed the note, but he felt a subconscious smile creep onto his face when he spotted it amongst the crowd of white envelopes.
He decided to deal with the bills first, then he would read the note after, he would need the uplift. He opened the first bill.
By the 4th letter he owed 648386.65₩ (£400, 542.40 US$). He had counted his change, taking aside the amount he would need for food through the week.
It left him with around 1/4 of the bills left to pay, he panicked the moment he saw the date the money was due. It was a day away, he wouldn't be able to make enough performing on the street in that time, unless a millionaire tip him that is.
He dropped his head down onto his crossed arms on the scuffed desk top. He felt frustration welling up in him, he had chosen this accommodation because it was one of the cheapest and so that he could be with his friends from high school.
Powering through, he found another bill that upped his frustration. Why did he have to owe so much? Why did things have to cost ridiculous amounts.
He forced himself to take a calming deep breath, the only thing left to open was the note. It was strange the note was bulked up. More than the other one had been.
He found the smile he had before when he first noticed the note creep back onto his face. He opened it what he wasn't expecting was for 405181.45₩ (£250, 338.96 US$) to fall out.
Whoever had gifted him the note, had just paid him enough to cover all of his bills for the next month with some left over.
He read the note in disbelief.
'One should always gift what they can to those who deserve it'
Was message the unknown angel had added to the end, it had a little star by the end of the writing, like one you would find on top of a Christmas tree.
In that moment Yoongi felt the tears run down his face, he couldn't express his thanks enough to his mysterious angel. But he knew when he found them, a hug was the first thing he would give them. And he wasn't a hugging person.

So Jimin gets to keep his anonymity, and we get both Jin and Yoongi in this chapter.
There will be 2 more chapters before Valentine's day to complete the Christmas chapters.
Hoseok and Namjoon next chapter, do you want angst or fluff?
Anyway I hope you liked the chapter and the ones to come.
