The old man, peter was polishing off his third whiskey on the rocks. On the first fortnight of December, the old man named peter dishevelled, his eyes bloodshot. Another cold of life flew rapidly even unnoticed with the change in society. It's been years, no glamour and happiness touched that old swiftly pumping heart. The feeling of happiness disappeared due to a lot of ups and downs in life with financial problems of life.

Peter was frisked into the waiting area of the airport with semi head down on the table remembering the old days. The golden days of his life! As a child, I had practised splendid laugh as a most illustrious laugh but how swiftly life turned that grey as it is now. The jingles by the church's bells ringing out and the lustiest peals that I ever heard. Ding, dong, clash, bells, clang and hammer. Oh, glorious sounds, giving new birth to a heart. The meadows I loved to walk, fog of winter snowy days, cold, stirring and clear sky in the night. The day of Christmas piping for the blood in heart, golden sunlight, sweet fresh air, merry bells, gifts from loved ones in shinny golden papers, and heavenly golden sky. Overwhelming beauty with fine fellows of that time. Oh Glorious, Glorious my God. I loved to wait for Santa with them. All they turned old enough now that it seems decades without them.

He was living satisfied with 12-year-old son and wife. That devastating night, Peter left alone to another state to make money for beloved girl Mary and son Jesus.
