Mathew decided it would be a good idea to give gifts to the other countries for Christmas to get more noticed so that, just maybe, they would notice him. But he didn't know what to get! He decided to get something for Alfred since he was so close by, and he knew a lot of countries. He thought about what to get him. "A hamburger? No, no food- he has enough of that. Hmm… what do you think Mr. Kumajiro?" he asked, holding the giant bear. "Mmm… who are you?" "I'M- oh, forget it!" he wailed.

He decided to go to America to see what kind of stuff the people liked. All Mathew really saw was the same stuff as he saw in Canada- but less moose. The people talked a lot more too. He saw a group of people standing by a clothing store that looked nice enough to talk to. He walked up to them and took a deep breath. "Umm… do you know anything about what someone around here would want for Christmas?" he looked longingly at the group, waiting for an answer. One of them looked around and said, "did you hear something?" another one said "no, I didn't hear anything," and the group walked away.

Mathew was a little depressed by now, but he still had hopes. He decided to find a person alone so he could be noticed. He found a young man waiting for the bus. "H-h-hello? Excuse me, but I was wondering," he started, "wait, when did you get here?" interrupted the young man. "Finally!" he thought, "someone noticed me!" "What do you want?" inquired the man. "w-w-ell," started Mathew, but once again he was interrupted-"oops, sorry, this is my bus," and the young man left. By this time, Mathew was losing his patients. He sighed. "What do you think I should do Mr. Kumajiro?" "Mmm… who are you?" Mathew sighed again and started looking around shops.

He came across a video game store and walked in. he decided it looked like a good place and viewed the different games. He saw a game and decided it looked good- so, although it was a lot of money, he got it. It was worth it if he was noticed. So, he bought the game and left to find Alfred.

When he finally found Alfred, he was at his house watching TV. He came up to him and softly said, "H-hi. Here's a Christmas present I got for you..." Alfred continued to watch the TV, laughing hysterically. Then, he glanced over and almost fell of the couch. "Hey bro, when did you get here?" Mathew glanced to the side "well, I came to give this to you.." "Give what?" Alfred questioned. "A Christmas present…" mumbled Mathew. "Whoa dude!" said Alfred as he snatched the box out of Mathew's hands and ripped off the wrapping paper. Alfred fell silent. "So… what do you think?" whispered Mathew. Alfred stared down at the game. He looked up at Mathew with a confused look. " Dude, Zelda is for chicks!"
