I can't eat another bite.

Yeah, I'm stuffed.

Everything was so good that I couldn't stop myself from overeating.

Oh yeah, so why couldn't Kanata and Ayumu make it?

Kanata said she had a date with her younger sister, Haruka, and Ayumu said she already had plans for a neighborhood party as well.

Hmm, that's so Kana. She never changes.

Next we should start exchanging presents!

[Fade in/out.]

I got a Santa hat!

*Giggle* What do you think? Does it look all right?

It looks great! You're adorable, Kotori!

*Giggle* Thanks. Ahem! It is I, Santa Claus! Now just who did I gift my lip balm to?

*Chuckle* Just kidding.

Over here, Santa! It was me!

I really hope you like it.

I'll be da BALM while wearing this lip balm! Geddit? Thanks, I'll put it to good use!

Oh, I got a pouch! It's cute and the perfect size for goggles!

That's the one I picked out! Make sure to use it a bunch!

Wow! A school idol encyclopedia!

*Chuckle* It must have been destiny for you to get that gift.

I'll treasure it as I read through it bit by bit every day.

Mine is a school idol portrait shot! Wow, this is amazing. Everyone looks so wonderful!

*Giggle* That's one of my favorite portrait shots!

I'll frame it, then hang it on my wall!

What's mine I wonder.

Hm? A novel?

That present is from me. The story is really interesting!

To give you a brief synopsis…

Ah, there's no way this explanation will be brief.

Ahahaha!

Thank you, Setsuna. I look forward to reading this over winter break!
