Unpleasant Taste of Christmas

PROLOGUE

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
Don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree

Snowy, cold yet merry. In a magical world of fantasy, Boba village was filled of so much joy and all of the people there singing, dancing and having fun on the 23rd day of Christmas.

There's a family who owns the village, a family who gives a bright side of every people's mood especially their daughter Tutti, she's an extra ordinary girl. She loves Christmas and she was the source of everyone's happiness. She lighted the candle of each home where built their village.

"Tutti! You've got to see this!"

She stopped on making cookies in their home's kitchen.

"Mom! Gotta leave for a bit!"

She yelled and take off her apron and rush out their house where Salted Caramel was waiting at her.

There was a biggest show in their plaza. Machiatto's show are filled of children, teenagers and even adults. He's famous on his very eye catching creation of toys. Many children loves his creation especially his masterpiece, a magical paintbrush where you can draw or write whatever you want.

But Tutti doesn't agree on it and she finds it very suspicious. Well, she's not like other girls who always jump to conclusions neither she observes it until she finds the right clue about it.

"I really love to see children this happy. Actually, we really need them to be happy every Christmas holidays."

"Yeah, their smiles are sweet..like candies. Like you, Tutti."

"Yeah." I agreed coldly.

She rubbed her back to comfort her and she looked at her with a concerned look which she already noticed it.

"Tuts, you know, I'll be honest with you now. Making people happy was really enough sometimes you need to give time yourself, be happy."

"But seeing them makes me happy already, having you in my life makes me happy, celebrating Christmas with Mom and Dad was really enough for me."

"You're minding other's business while you can't even give yourself a great time. Come on, you can tell me what do you want this Christmas."

She chuckled thinking how weird she wants for this Christmas.

"You know SC, I am in my right age now to experience new things."

"What? Don't tell me, you want a boyfriend. Huh?"

She just smiled and her sweet smile means yes and it never lies. Tutti was a positive girl and she did everything to never happen the village so lonely like before.

The show just ended and the children were very happy from what they saw. Luckily, they went to Tutti and everyone became happier. But suspiciously seen, Machiatto crossed his eyebrows what he just saw and suddenly leave the place with a magical dust.

And again, the village continues the party they were having right now. Tutti and Salted Caramel just taking a walk around the place until she suddenly found out a man looking to his big bowl of boiling greenish liquid.

Her suspicion to him was right, she sneaked out on it's window and watched him doing a thing. But with that, she slowly walking sideways to see it clearly. Unluckily, she made a loud noise and she got the attention of Machiatto.

"I am very sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt—"

"I am very sorry young lady but I think this is the end of your happiness."

It was too late to run when she got caught. That's why, he dragged her and thrown her away using his dark magic into his big old book.

"The happiness you contribute to this village will soon be replace by my happiness."

The he laughs maniacally as soon as he closed the book and hide it on the depths of the village that no one can find it, even forever.
