"Merry Christmas, Dr. Minrae"

"Oh, merry Christmas to you too, Dr"

It was the holiday eve, the day Jesus was born, Christmas. The entire hospital was lit with lights and decorations with a huge Christmas tree that reached till the peak of the third floor. We had a Santa Clause too, to enlighten the Christmas spirit among the patients.

"Ho, ho ,ho" the fat Santa made his way to my side, laughing in delight.

With the laugh and the way his eyes curved into a smile behind the huge round glasses and heavy beard, I knew it was him.

"Taehyung! You're the Santa?" I asked, pulling the beard down, while he smiled innocently.

"Every year we play a game, in which the looser becomes the Santa for the year. Just know that this time I lost" he said, brushing his long, fake beard.

"Nice" I replied, boxing his huge stomach, which was loaded with tons of cotton maybe?

"Got many more rooms to visit, bye Dr. Minrae, and Merry Christmas"

"Same to you, Dr. Tae" I said, waving at the heavy red ball, walking away with slow steps.

Every year I celebrate Christmas with my family, but this time I couldn't, simply because mom went to Bussan, to visit my grand mom. And the train tickets will be sold out at this time of the year too.

I walked around the hospital; well it's not that bad in here either. All the staffs were here too, only a few left to their homes. Some were busy with the decorations while some were walking in and out of their patient's rooms.

Whatever it is, this feeling is as great as being at home, maybe a little less, but I can deal with that.

"Merry Christmas" a hand tapped on my shoulder to see Harin unnie, behind.

"Same to you"

"No plans?" she asked.

"Nope"

"Haha, that's okay, make sure to come around to the fourth floor today. We have a celebration for staffs during night"

"That's great, sure I'll come"

"See you there then"

It's a great feeling so far, but everyone is busy being happy themselves and spending time with their close friends. And then there is me not knowing where to go or whom to talk to. Taehyung, is the only one I can be free with, but he is busy Santa Clausing around.

Doubtfully and lazily I walked to crease my fingers on the crystal clear window, following the snow that unknowingly sticks on to it.

'The climate is cool, but so relaxing'

I had a small smile forming on my face, before the thought stroke me.

'Snow? climate?'

I rushed to my room, searching for something warm, like maybe a blanket. I surfed through many drawers, but I can't find any. I guess they took them all for dry cleaning yesterday.

That only leaves me with one choice.

'My blanket'

I grabbed my blanket from my bed, folding it into a big square, fur sheet, while I made a run to the nearest elevator. The material was so heavy in my hands. I had to adjust it back again and again from falling.

I reached the ground floor, realizing the elevator won't go further down.

'Great I have to go down the stairs with this'
