Christmas Carols: Chapter 5 "Dad! I'm home!"I closed the front door just to see an empty house.Looks like he's still not home, I thought as I looked at the wall clock.7:00pm."There's still time for the audition." I said, looking at the flyer hanging in the refrigerator.I paused for a little while and remembered what my mom said to me before:Believe in yourself to reach your dreams.Then I took the flyer out of the refrigerator and wrote on a piece of paper.It said:Dad, I'm sorry.

Christmas Carols: Chapter 4 "Back so soon Nathan?"I looked at my aunt and murumred, "Were you expecting me to come home late?"My aunt, shocked with what I said, replied, "N-no, not at all..." then we both fell silent.After a while my aunt broke the silence saying, "Dinner's ready!"But I just headed up for the stairs and curtly replied, "I'm not hungry..." and went up.I hate my life.I flopped down the bed and thought about the encounter with Reira.She dosen't understand what I feel right now...nobody does.

Christmas Carols: Chapter 2 "Hey Reira, I don't know if you noticed but that new guy's been staring at you since Homeroom."I turned around to see Mina with a funny look on her face."Oh yeah right," as I looked at the guy with brown hair and blue eyes.

Christmas Carols: Chapter 1 Deck the halls with boughs of holly, falalalalalalalala…Tis the season to be jolly, falalalalalalalala.I put down my book just to see snow trickling out of my window.
