In December, Austin doesn't get blanketed in snow like Alaska, but the air already carries a touch of chill.
The shop windows lining the streets are already adorned with colorful lights, wreaths, and all sorts of exquisite Christmas decorations.
The radio plays cheerful Christmas songs on repeat, enveloping the entire city in a joyous festive atmosphere.
They went to the supermarket together, Aliya with her slightly rounded belly, holding onto Lin Yu'an's arm, picking out various food items and decorations.
They brought home a small plastic Christmas tree, which they placed in the corner of the living room.
Together, they hung up colorful balls, little snowmen, golden bells, and sparkling stars on the tree.
Aliya took charge of directing, while Lin Yu'an handled the decorations. Occasionally, Aliya would stand on tiptoe to hang her favorite ornament, turning around to flash a sweet smile at Lin Yu'an.
