It's Christmas break now and I'm finally starting to relax a little with the help of my friends. It feels like things are finally starting to come together.
"Great idea Erin, getting Jake to take Leah to my parents' house so we could finish with the presents and decorations." I say as I pull another gift towards me so I can wrap it. "I know, I'm brilliant." Erin says, our eyes meet and we laugh a little. "Look at you two girls having fun," Michael says as he walks into the room. "Hey babe," he says as he leans down to give me a kiss on the cheek. "Hey," I say back, smiling widely as he sits down next to me.
"I have a surprise for you," he says confidently, glancing at Erin. "Oh?" I glance at Erin questioningly, who is suddenly very busy wrapping the gift in front of her. "You know how my aunt and uncle are coming here for Christmas?" I nod, "My mother just informed me that my father and her are coming as well. Along with my sister and cousins." I'm shocked, "Oh."
