The Perfect Christmas Present Page #8

---

You just wait till next year.

That is, of course,

if you've decided to stay.

You think I would

leave all this behind?

Not a chance.

You've discovered my vice.

You over the party already?

Yeah, I've reached my limit.

People enjoying themselves

too much stresses me out.

- Hence, sugar.

- Mm-hmm.

Of course, now I won't be able

to sleep tonight, so...

Have you heard of... ASMR?

On December 23rd,

AT PRECISELY 9:
17 p.m.,

two snowflakes,

completely unique

yet perfectly complementing

one another

fall in unison as they

head toward the Gold Coast.

Louis and Christina Selter

spot them

while stargazing with Matthew,

commenting on how snowflakes

are so much more

than just clumps of ice.

In Westtown,

Martin and Clara Hamilton

make plans to celebrate

Christmas together

for the first time in ten years.

From that day forward,

they never spend

a single day apart.

In Lincoln Park Theater,

Edith and Irv Struit

reaffirm the vows they made

to each other 50 years ago,

and make plans for their 75th.

In a mansion in the Gold Coast,

Paul Welch and Victoria Stolle

share a moment of serenity.

And in that moment, they realize

even the simplest pleasures

can be the most profound...

This is my favorite part.

...if you have someone

to share them with.

And as the pair of snowflakes

land on the window

of a house in West Chicago,

Tom Jacobs and Jenny Stone

smile.

While it might seem

impossible to answer,

they both wonder

if they've found the person

they're meant to spend

the rest of their life with.

But they don't wonder too much,

because with the right person,

it's painfully obvious.
