A special night (short-story)



When Jane woke up that morning she immediately felt that that was going to be a special day: she had the feeling that something would happen. Like every morning, she got up to have her breakfast. Unfortunately, when she looked through the window, she saw a dark sky, filled by shining stars; it was night. That event was really strange, but she thought it would be tiresome, because her last week at school was extremelly hard. She tried to sleep again, but she couldn't and so she decided to keep looking at the stars, contemplating all the universe over the insignificant civilization.

Suddenly, the wind became stronger and she caught a glimpse of someone in the distance, a man walking through the clouds with a big beard and a bag which looked like a bunch of presents. Finally, she remembered that it was Christmas, realising only at that moment, the real meaning of life.



Merry Christmas and a happy new year!
