Snowflakes were silently making their way towards the ground, holding a promise of a white winter for the first time since I could remember. The trees had lost all of their leaves, leaving only bare and lonely trunks in the forests around Greenile.
Satisfaction warmed my chest when I thought about this being the first christmas that Erik and I spent together. We were at home and he was putting up different christmas decorations at the moment. Mica had come over too, so it was my whole family helping with the christmas stuff.
Dad suddenly jumped up on the sofa and sang the chorus of the song that were playing really loud and not even a single note was right, but it was still nice to hear. His song made me burst out in joyous laughter while trying to put up a light in the shape of a star in the window, but I ended up rumpeling the edge.
