Bab 36: Christmas Special (Side story - 1)

It was a cold winter in the Hajime residence. Snow was falling steadily outside the window. A small girl with skin as white as snow and hair as black as raven's feathers was sneaking in to a room that wasn't hers.

There was a boy sleeping under the covers unaware of his little sister's ninja-like movements. He also had skin as white as snow and hair as black as raven's feathers. When she was already close enough to the bedside, she leapt up on the bed and jumped up and down.

"Merry Christmas, Onii-chan!"

Yuzan groaned. His head was still swimming with so much business information. He had lessons about the stock market until ten in the evening despite it being Christmas Eve already.

"What time is it, Mia-chan?" Yuzan said, rubbing his eyes.

"It's . . . Christmas . . . time . . . Onii-chan!" Mia said in between jumps.

"Mia-chan, stop jumping. I'm getting dizzy," Yuzan said.

Mia stopped jumping and gasped for breath.

"That was tiring," Mia declared.
