[ The cute polka-dotted box with candy-cane ribbons is actually delivered to Iris ahead of time, with the sticky note of 'don't touch until Christmas'. He doesn't know where she lives, after all, so he just asked her boss to pass this along to her.

Inside the box there's the usual tissue paper, a neatly folded and printed card, as well as a cellophane-wrapped packet of frosted sugar cookies and intricately decorated chocolate truffles. The real present is, however, the pretty journal; several pressed flowers are carefully glued onto the cover and arranged in a tasteful design. Inside, the first few pages and the last few have watercolor landscapes of calm grassy fields and lakes, dotted with wildflowers.

The card reads: 'A journalist should have a place for notes, right? Though I'm sure you have something of your own, I wanted to give you something, too. Merry Christmas! - Hajime' ]
