Belarus:
Natalya Arlovskaya, Belarus. looked at her watch. He would be arriving in five… four… three… two… one…
-Hi, Natalya. I hope I'm not too late. Toris Laurinaitis, Lithuania, came in, just on time.
She gave a rare smile; he was always punctual.
-You're not, she said. Shall we go, she continued in the clipped tone she always used.
Toris knew better than to be insulted; Natalya always spoke like that. Instead he asked,
-So, what are we doing today?
-You ever heard of Old New Year, or what Ukraine and her people calls Malanka?
-I've heard of it. What about it?
-Well, it's celebrated pretty much as the New Year's Eve on December 31st and New Year's Day on January 1st, sans the fireworks, and I wanted to celebrate it with you.
-I'm very flattered, Toris, whom normally wouldn't have argued with her whenever she suggested to go anywhere with him alone but they'd been going out for such a long time now that he felt he could, began, but what about your older siblings? Don't you want to spend it with them?
-They've their own plans, besides, we spend part of Christmas and the whole of Global Family Day together.
Russia:
Yao Wang, China, was reading through some papers that his boss had given him while stroking his cat's fur. He'd been stroking his cat for some time when he suddenly realized that the fur's texture had changed. Looking down, he was startled to see… Ivan Braginsky, Russia!
-Hello, Yao Yao.
-Vanya! What are you doing here, aru?
-I'm wondering if my little sunflower wants to spend Old New Year with me?
-New Year's was thirteen days ago, aru.
-Not New Year's, my little sunflower. Old New Year.
-Aru? Yao said confused.
-Could it possibly be that I, despite being many years younger than you, know something that you, with all your experience and wisdom don't know? Ivan said smiling to himself. It's a holiday that's rather informally observed by my people, thereby letting them celebrate New Year twice, and for sentimental reasons me too.
-Will there be a lot to eat, aru?
-Oh, yes. It's tradition after all. There will even be singing. It's all rather nostalgic. What do you say [Yaox2]? Would you like to spend it with me?
-Will your other siblings be there, aru?
-No. Just you and me. All alone. And maybe a bed, or a big comfortable couch.
-You're such an immortal teenager, aru. Yao sighed. Fine, Vanya, I'll spend it with you. But that doesn't mean that we'll be spending horizontally, aru. He said warningly as Ivan cheered with childish glee.
-Oh, Yao, he said with a horny smile. I love it when you speak dirty.
Ignoring Yao's furious blush, Ivan nation-hopped to his home. Yao following not long after.
Ukraine:
-So, both of your younger siblings are spending this Old New Year with their boyfriends?
-Yes.
-And so, you want to spend it with your boyfriend, me?
-If it's not too much trouble. Chernenko Arlovskaya, Ukraine, told her boyfriend unsurely.
-There's no need to be apologetic. Carlos Machado, Cuba, smiled. I would love to spend one of your holidays with you.
-It's just that I know that you don't have any holiday right now, and that you…
-I said that I want to, he interrupted her.
-Oh, yes, you did. She smiled weakly at him.
-I'll always want to spend some time with you. He smiled back at her, even brighter.
