"I think I won't be giving it." Atsumu said on December 23. "What? Why?!" Osamu asked in disbelief. "After all those materials we bought. All those money we spent on that. Ya'll say ya won't give it?!" Osamu said, pissed off.

"It's embarrassing.. and it doesn't even look like him.." Atsumu whispered as he looked at the plushie. "Oh come on! Ya gotta be kidding me!" Osamu exclaimed as he looked at Atsumu for answers. "No. I won't be giving it to him." Atsumu simply said, staring back at Osamu's eyes.

"What the actual fuck?--" Osamu exclaimed as he tugged his hair. "I'll talk to ya later." Osamu said as he turned around to leave, slamming the door behind him.

December 25 came and Atsumu gave the original gift that they planned.

"O-Omi-Omi... I-- I-- here!" Atsumu stuttered, hands trembling with embarrassment and nervousness. He handed him the gift that is beautifully covered with beautiful Christmas wrapper.

"What's this?" Sakusa asked curiously as he tried to peak inside the bag.  "A Christmas gift.." Atsumu embarrassingly said, suddenly taking interest at the walls.

Sakusa carefully opened the bag, surprised to see the things he like in there. Unexpected to be a gift from Atsumu. "How.. did you know I like Umeboshi?"  Sakusa slowly asked, tilting his head to the right.

"A guess." Atsumu lied. He looked at Sakusa in the eye, like he was so proud, but that doesn't work on him. He turned to Osamu and smiled, "You saw it on the bulletin board by the entrance, didn't you?" Osamu was taken a back, but was forced to smile in defeat. "Yeah.." Osamu awkwardly said, scratching the back of his neck. Atsumu wished that he would at least say no, so he wouldn't look like a fool.

"But I gotta admit, your eyes are something. How did you know which brands I like?" Sakusa asked Osamu, completely ignoring the fact that the gift was from Atsumu. "Well honestly, I searched online which were the best brands. Knowing ya will only accept the best ones." Osamu smiled. "Nothing less from you." Sakusa complimented.

"Hey! That gift is still from me! If I could walk and get out of here I would have done the same!" Atsumu yelled, eyebrows knitted in anger. "Yeah, no one is saying that it's not from you, Tsumu." Osamu retorted with the most blunt answer.

"Anyway Sakusa-san, this is my gift for ya." Osamu smiled, giving him another bag. "You shouldn't have bothered. You prepared Atsumu's too anyway." Sakusa said hesitantly taking the bag. "It's okay. This is my specialty anyway." And with the mention of that, Sakusa knew it was food. It obviously wouldn't be Umeboshi since Atsumu's are already that.

He slowly opened it and saw a super big onigiri with other delicious meals. "That's Onigiri Miya's new flavor. I would have given it to Suna, but Suna would probably accept anything. And since this is a special day, it's all yours. I'm thrilled for someone else to taste it."
Osamu smiled as his eyes sparkled. "Remember to give me a feedback!~" Osamu said happily.

"I-- actually prepared for the both of you too, let me just take it-" Sakusa was cut off with a tap on his shoulder. "Before that, can we talk outside for a minute?" Osamu asked and Atsumu was curious, scared, and annoyed that they're leaving him out of the conversation. Osamu and Sakusa left the room.

"So-- that wasn't the only gift he got for you." Osamu started. Sakusa looked at him curiously. "This." Osamu said as he showed a little paperbag. "He was embarrassed to give it, so he decided not to. But for me it's such a waste, so don't tell Tsumu I gave it to ya, okay?"
Osamu said as he winked while giving him the bag.

Sakusa opened it and saw, a huggable size Sakusa Kiyoomi plushie. "He had been sewing that for a long time. He even sent me on errands on buying cottons, cloths, and other things. I even started to notice bags under his eyes. He gave a LOT of effort for that, I don't know why he didn't want to give it.."

Osamu explained in a quiet voice. Sakusa looked at it with wide eyes as he  examined the plushie that looks exactly like him. He held it near him and smiled. "Thank you for giving it to me despite your brother's opposite intent. I'm glad I received it. I know that I won't be able to say thank you to him since you only sneaked this out, but when the time comes, thank him for me." Sakusa said as he smiled softly and turned to leave.

"When the time comes, you thank him, Sakusa-san." Osamu said as he was about to enter Atsumu's room again. "W-why..?" Sakusa asked suddenly but it was late, since Osamu already entered the room and closed the door. "What the....?"

What the hell does he mean??
