A Gift Filled With Feelings
Ramona
Where did Lilja go?
Koyomi
I thought she was sitting there a moment ago...
Hikari
I wonder if she went back to her room satisfied...?
Xue
Even if she’s going at her own pace, that's not right-
Lilja
Ho ho ho!
Hikari
Wow, it's Santa!?
Lilja
Ho ho ho.
Hikari
Xue! It's Santa Claus!?
Xue
No, it's Finland.
Xue
What's up with you, wearing a Santa Claus costume like that...
Lilja
Ho ho ho!
Koyomi
She's angry.
Ramona
Is it because she said it’s Lilja, even though she's Santa Claus?
Lilja
Ho ho ho!
Koyomi
I-It seems you're right...
Xue
Is she only going to say 'ho ho ho'?
Koyomi
She was like this when she was at school last year too...
Lilja
Ho ho ho...
Xue
She's started rummaging through the bag she brought...
Lilja
Ho ho ho! Ho ho ho!
Hikari
Eh!? For me!?
Hikari
These are muscle training goods!? Is it okay!?
Lilja
Ho ho...
Ramona
Me as well? Is this a handball?
Ramona
It's cute. Thank you.
Koyomi
M-Me too? This is-
Koyomi
...Opera glasses. You really know what I want.
Lilja
Ho ho ho.
Xue
You guys weren't told either?
Koyomi
That’s right, we had no idea she was getting us presents...
Lilja
Ho ho.
Ramona
So this was a surprise just from Lilja?
Lilja
Ho.
Hikari
She really only says 'ho ho'...
Xue
This isn't getting us anywhere.
Ramona
Lilja...I've already got the message that you respect Santa Claus. So, can you tell us in your own words?
Lilja
...
Ramona
It would be a shame not to be able to hear your feelings directly, wouldn't it?
Lilja
...But I'm Santa Claus now.
Ramona
'Being Santa Claus is important, but there are things you can do even if you're not Santa Claus. ' Right?
Lilja
Mm...
Xue
Did you get changed just for this farce?
Lilja
It's not a farce.
Lilja
...But I'll tell you a special story today.
Xue
Why are you being so bossy...?
Lilja
I didn't give it to you yet, so here it is. For Xue.
Xue
...For me? Isn't it a lot bigger than everyone else's?
Lilja
Yes. For 16 years? 15 years? You've been a good girl and waited for Santa. That's why.
Xue
...I wasn't waiting for Santa Claus or anything.
Lilja
Is this not enough?
Lilja
Then, there there.
Xue
No! Don't treat me like a kid! I’m not a kid!
Lilja
I'm not treating you like a child. I did it to everyone, so there's some for you too. That's all.
Xue
Ghhh...
Lilja
You don't want it?
Xue
I didn't say I didn't want it...
Lilja
Then, here you go.
Xue
...Thanks.
Lilja
Sure.
Xue
Is this...a scarf and gloves?
Lilja
Yes.
Xue
Why?
Lilja
Because joulutonttu was watching over you.
Xue
Joulu...? What's that?
Lilja
Heh heh. You were a good girl on both cold days and hot days, Xue.
