Epilogue

25th December

It's Christmas today! All my friends are coming over to celebrate and continue our ritual of Secret Santa. If you don't know what Secret Santa is, it is a game where you draw names from a bowl and whoever's name you get, you have to give that person a gift, without them knowing it is you.

So here we are, Maddie, Nancy, Ritz, Sally, Ady, Hessa, Nigel, Daniel and I, all sitting in a circle with our gifts in front of us.

"So who is going to go first?" I asked cheerfully.

"Oh I'll go!" Hessa said enthusiastically and took a present addressed to her from the table.

She read the note and ripped her present open and inside was a beautiful dress. "Oh my god! It's beautiful! From the handwriting I'm guessing it's Daniel?" and she looked at Daniel.

He nodded smiling.

"Thank you so much! I love it!" Hessa said smiling in return.

Daniel went next and opened his present. He got a book on physics from Nancy.
