The Sweetest Christmas Present.

There was this little boy named Evan. He was ten years old. All he wanted for Christmas was to play happily with his friends. But he couldn't even walk without gasping for breath, let alone running around with his friends. He spent most of his time on the wheel chair. The chemotherapy had shed all of his hair, leaving him with none on top. Looking like an alien from outer space, his face turned paler as each day passed by. It was soon to be. His time was in due course, leaving this world soon and having his days numbered. He knew all this but just by smiling all day long, he could keep everyone around him stronger, happier by each day.

One night, his younger sister, Alma was at home alone while Evan was away for chemotherapy. She always refused to let anyone touch her hair. She was obsessed with her silky long hair despite her young age. That night, she was ransacking the whole house for something. Finally, she found what she wanted. A pair of scissors! She looked in the mirror on the dressing table and started cutting her long silky hair!

Her parents and Evan were back. Alma rushed to the door. With her hair messed up, her parents were taken aback by what happened. Alma handed her hair to her bald brother and with a smile on her face,

Merry Christmas Evan, this is my Christmas present for you!
