10.30pm

Isuju wandered aimlessly after she had left the Asano's residence. This wasn't the how she had wanted to spend her Christmas Eve.

It was getting cold just in a thin layer of fabric. The jacket wasn't helping at all. The snow accumulated on her shoulders and her head.

"Asano ditched you?" An over familiar voice spoke. Isuju turned around to see Karma.

He was dressed in casual winter wear as he was on his way to the nearby Christmas Carnival.

Isuju slightly nodded her head. Karma laughed," what did I tell you? That's the reason I stopped you from going. Something will happen."

"Come on, let's go," Karma took Isuju's hand and walked. Isuju kept quiet. She had no mood to talk. She was still shocked by what Asano had done.

"Would you want to be seen with a person from Class E?"

"I don't mind."

Asano's words replayed over and over in her head.

"You are a pathetic piece of shit. You have absolutely no rights to live. I had only treated you this way because I truly pitied you. You are even worse than the other delinquents."

She gritted her teeth at the thought of Asano saying that.

Isuju remembered how Asano had danced with her. She could feel his breath on her neck. She rubbed her neck with her hand. She could feel his breath lingering there. The feeling wasn't going away. She hated that feeling.

Isuju was frustrated at herself, she couldn't help it, the incident stayed etched on her mind.

She wanted to kill someone to let out her anger. She wanted to stab someone over and over again to release her pent up aggression.

"Stop thinking about it, you'll cry even more," Karma said as he wiped her tears off her face.

"I'm not crying," Isuju muttered," my um... Eyeballs are sweating."

"Yea right," Karma scoffed.

"Where are you bringing me anyways?" Isuju asked. Karma had been pulling her along for a good ten minutes. Her wrist was getting sore. Karma kept quiet for the time being.

They reached her house, where Karma told her to change in five minutes in come back downstairs.

She had changed into a long sleeved white shirt and black jeans. She put on her specs and a thin black jacket which Asano had given to her.

Isuju went back downstairs to meet Karma again. "Where are we going?" Isuju asked.

"That's for you to see once we get there," Karma smiled and pulled her along.

11.00pm

They arrived at the Christmas Carnival.

The white snow piled up at the roof of the red tents. There were booths everywhere. At the entrance of the carnival, there was a Christmas tree which hung mini balls which had lights in them. There were also cards that the public wrote and hung on the tree.

The atmosphere was truly indescribable. There were little kids smiling happily while playing the games at the booths. There were teenagers hanging out together. There were couples being all lovey dovey. What attracted Isuju's attention was the snow angels made by the little kids.

"Come on, let's go," Karma squeezed her hand and led her to a game booth where you can win clothes. He passed Isuju a ball and signaled to her to throw.

The ball missed the cans and bounced off the table, only to hit the owner of the booth. And since Isuju threw as hard as she could, the owner was going to have a black eye.

Karma silently laughed to himself as he watched Isuju bowing and apologizing to the owner. When the owner demanded that Isuju had to pay for his medical fees, which were about $200, Karma stepped in.

"Oji-san, there isn't a reason to pay for the $200," Karma said," if you think logically, if you were to earn $200 right now, the customers around would see that you are just taking advantage of the situation and won't come to your booth. However, if 200 people come to your booth tonight, you'll be earning $3 per person. Do the math."

"Oh and," Karma smiled as he added," thank you for the prizes."

Karma swiftly swiped the black winter jacket which was displayed as one of the prizes and ran away with Isuju. As soon as they were out of sight, Karma passed Isuju the jacket.

Karma probably thought that two thin layers of clothes didn't help keep her warm.

When Isuju had put on the jacket, she felt warmth. It felt as if Karma had wrapped his arms around her and kept her warm. Unlike Asano, the jacket he had had given to her had turned cold.

"Helloooooo," Karma shook her body back and forth," you're spacing out."

"Sorry," Isuju muttered. She didn't want to tell him what she had felt.

Isuju changed the subject," before you you dragged me here, were you planning on coming here alone?"

"Nope, I had a friend called Nagisa-kun, but he cancelled last minute as his mother didn't allow him to come," Karma sighed," well, at least I can drag you along."

"So basically I'm your friend so that you can drag me around?"

"Yup."

"You know you can at least lie to me to make me feel happy, I already feel as sad as you see me now," Isuju faked a pout.

"Okay fine, you're a good friend and I will never drag you around ever again," he replied," but if you're a good friend, you have to remember what day is it tomorrow."

Isuju was puzzled," Christmas?"

"Nope, keep thinking," Karma teased as he pulled her hand. She thought as hard as possible, ignoring the fact that Karma is dragging her around.

11.20pm

Karma led her to a dunking machine. Basically, there was a person sitting at the edge of a big water tub. Passers-by will have to pay to throw a ball to hit a target, which will result in the peron falling into the water.

And since it was winter, the person falling in will suffer in the ice cold water. Or get hypothermia.

The person sitting at the edge if the tub was a boy called Terasaka. His friends were at the front of the booth throwing balls to hit the target.

Karma asked his friends politely if he could try to knock Terasaka down. His friends only sneered," you? You look like you can't even lift a pin."

They laughed at their own comment. They continued saying how weak Karma looked like. After 6 seconds of taunting, one of Terasaka's friends accidentally tripped and fell on another friend, the three fell onto each other. 

Karma snickered as he grinned evilly," if you mess with Karma, karma will be a bitch to you." He then picked up the three of them and literally threw them to one side.

"Isuju, you wanna try?" Karma held three balls in his hands. Isuju gave a light nod as she took two from his hand.

Isuju then released her pent up aggression from Asano into the ball. She threw as hard as she could. The ball went flying as fast as lightning, getting closer to the target.

However, she was aiming for the correct target. When she aimed for the correct target, the ball would definitely miss that target. The ball went off course and hit Terasaka's head. The distance between Terasaka and the target was a good three meters.

"AIM PROPERLY!" Terasaka's voice was directed at Isuju once he recovered from being hit.

The second ball was in her right hand, preparing for launch. Isuju threw as hard as she could again. But this time, as soon as she swung her hand, the ball went missing.

Isuju searched frantically for it. "Where is it? I don't want to compensate for this," she muttered to herself. Karma found it on the floor behind her. Turns out, she had already let go of the ball before she had even thrown it.

"Damn, you suck," Karma got in his ready position to throw the third ball.

"Probably just my mood that's affecting me," Isuju huffed as she watched Karma swing the ball towards the target. He didn't even try to make an effort to throw the ball.

The ball hit exactly in the middle of the target, Terasaka was then pushed into his reason of hypothermia.

Isuju silently laughed to herself after looking at Terasaka flailing his arms in the ice cold water. She usually didn't laugh at other's misery but somehow this was an exception.

11.45pm

"Where do you want to go next?" Karma asked as he walked away with Isuju.

"I'm craving for food, I didn't have any while I was at Asano's place," Isuju replied after thinking for a while.

Kaneki then popped up into her head as he had interrupted her from taking her food at Asano's house. The small smile she had on her face immediately faded away at the thought of Kaneki.

"I had already told you, stop thinking about Asano," Karma nudged her head. Isuju cleared her mind and nodded.

"Sorry, let's go," now, Isuju dragged Karma to a mini cart which sold drinks.

There was a teenage boy tending to the cart. The cart had a red top and was made out of wood. It brought out the homey feeling. There were golden Christmas balls dangling at the top. Red, green and yellow lights were wrapped around the cart.

"Hello there, would you want some hot chocolate? It's a dollar per cup," the boy smiled at Isuju and Karma as he saw them approaching.

Isuju and Karma bought a cup each. Isuju's stomach growled due to hunger. The boy then handed her a pack of marshmallows. The marshmallows looked like mini snowballs squeezed in a transparent plastic bag.

"It's on the house, besides you'll need it to satisfy your hunger," he winked," thank you for patronizing and Merry Christmas!"

11.50pm

Isuju thanked him as she walked away with Karma. She blew on her hot chocolate and sipped it slowly.

"I didn't know that girls could do that," Karma snickered.

"Do what?"

"Your stomach growled really loudly just now."

"And your point is?"

"I thought girls could control it, like suppressing their hunger or holding in your fart," Karma laughed.

"Well, now you know that we can't do that," Isuju said with a tinge of annoyance in her voice," and I thought all boys were insensitive to girls feelings, bit that boy just now proved me wrong."

"Well, you're insensitive towards me," Karma started," you don't even remember what day is 25 December."

"It's Christmas," Isuju replied.

"Of course it's Christmas, don't you remember anything else?" Karma asked, trying to get her to remember.

"The day where Jesus is born?"

"That's the same as Christmas."

"Then what?"

"I told you before, keep guessing."

11.55pm

"25 December..." Isuju pondered, then a bulb lighted up and she realised," I know! It's one of the anime character's birthday, his name is Levi Ravaille. I can't believe you know his birthday."

"So you know a birthday of an anime character but not a birthday of an important person?" Karma sighed," I'm hurt."

"Important person? Jesus?"

"You already guessed that one." Karma was frustrated, he can't get her to remember," never mind. It doesn't matter."

"Cheer up, I'm sorry but I'll try my best to remember," Isuju looked at Karma, noticing that he was only looking ahead and not listening to her.

They continued walking in silence. Isuju tried her best to ignore the awkward silence but it was bugging her every time she thought about puppies to get it off her mind.

Karma went away for a while to throw his cup away and cane back quickly.

"Give me some of your hot chocolate."

"Why? You had your own."

" 'Had', I want more," Karma snatched the drink away and poured it into his mouth.

"OI, GIVE IT BACK," Isuju stretched out her arms to take back the cup. Karma just held the drink up as high as possible.

"You want it back?" Karma said teasingly.

"OF COURSE, IT'S HOT CHOCOLATE!"

11.59pm

"Sure," Karma smiled," I'll give it back. If that's what you really want."

Karma took a small sip and etched his mouth to Isuju's.

12.00am

Fireworks went off. Golden and red lights bursted in the sky. Cheers could be heard everywhere.

Isuju felt hot chocolate pour into her mouth. It tasted sweeter than ever.

Karma's hand went to the back of her head. His hand pushed her head closer. Karma's other hand snaked around her waist, pulling her closer than ever.

A surge of emotions was felt. The kiss they shared was truly indescribable. Soft lips, hot chocolate, and Karma. What else did she need?

When they finally pulled away, Karma gave her a quick peck on her lips again.

"Merry Christmas, Isuju."
