Five Golden Rings
Japan observed the three sticky notes and the embroidered cloth she had collected, trying to identify the handwriting. It had been too elegant for America, and a bit too linear to be England's. She sighs, she isn't familiar with the handwriting at all.
The rest of Japan's meetings took place in the afternoon, which gives her a bit more of time to investigate her admirer's identity. Thanks to Greece's guess, she had eliminated the female nations. But with still very limited clues, her investigation was soon put to a close as she passed time by catching up on her anime.
As the credits of the last anime she had been watching rolled, several knocks echoed on her door.
"Room service!" Said a man with a strange French accent. She knew it was French but something seemed off.
Japan closes her laptop and walks to the door, but doesn't open it. She told the man, "I didn't order room service."
"This is Sakura Honda's room, right?" The man clarifies.
"It is," answered Japan, confused.
"Then this is for you," he declared. "I would leave it right here, but it might get cold!"
Japan opens the door. A tall man in a white service uniform enters the room with tray in his arms. He puts it on the small dining table near the kitchenette.
On the tray sat a pyramid of donuts. Beside the 5 layered, donut pyramid was a cup of fresh green tea with the now familiar sticky note on it.
"I hope it's up to your tastes. :) -S."
Japan hesitantly takes a sip of the green tea. She smiled once she tasted that it was indeed freshly brewed from leaves. She puts the cup down and takes a bite of a donut. Her eyes widened once she realized it was a mochi rice cake, shaped like a donut.
She smiled fondly. Whoever this "S" was, they sure did a lot of asking to know what her favorites were.
Later, after another World Meeting was concluded, everyone stayed in their seats for the drawing of recipients for the exchanging of gifts. Once England made his way to her, the top hat upturned and with pieces of paper inside, she asked the blonde, "Are we doing human names this time?"
"Yes, it was actually Germany who suggested it," England replied, shaking his head. "Although, I have no idea why."
Japan picked a piece of paper from the hat. She smiled once recognizing the name, it would be quite easy finding a gift for him since they hung out from time to time.
Is Japan's recipient for the Christmas Party "S"? Find out in the next chapters!
Omg, sorry! I wasn't able to upload this on time! You guys have no idea how much I've gone through yesterday! Between slipping then injuring myself and getting almost hit by a car, me and my friends had to walk since there was no jeep or taxi yesterday because of the tons of tourists! ^^'
