And here we go again

merry chrismas

It was the 25th of december what meant chrismas had finally arrived. The last five days Benny and Frida tried to see each other as often as possible and in the beginning it was somehow strange that they could see each other freely without a specific reason.

Today they would spent chrismas with their seperated family's, Frida with her's and Benny with his but still they don't wanted to miss the chance to see each other at least for a short while. Mostly Benny came to Fridas house because she didn't want to drive when it was not necessary, she no longer liked it. Now Benny was infront of her door and waited for her to open and she did so shortly after, somewhat hurried.

"Hey" she said gave him a quick kiss and ran back to the kitchen before he could replie or say something. He closed the door behind him and went after her while he took of his coat

"Are you okay?" he asked as he apporched her from behind, wrapping his arms around her waist

"Benny I love you but could you let me go? I have stress" she said and wriggled out of his embrace

"Why do you have stress?"

"Hans will come and pick me up in two hours and I still have to finish the dessert for tonight" she explained

"Can I help you with something?" he asked her, he didn't liked when she was stressed

"Can you cut the organes? And maybe chop the chocolate?"

"Of course where do you have your knifes and boards?" Frida opend one drawer and took out a board and another a bit higher to look for a good knife

"Thank you" Benny said and took all the things he needed and began to cut the organges

Around half an hour later the dessert was finished and was resting in the fridge. Befor Benny and Frida could have abit of relaxed time, Frida wanted to get ready and so Benny waited on the couch while she took a shower and got dressed. Another 30 minutes passed before she came down again leaving Benny stunned when he saw her. She wore loose white pants which were high-waisted, a dark blue blouse and a long golden necklace. A little detail was her ring on the little finger, that was typical her and the two earrings in each of her earlobes.

When Benny came out of the amazement again he quickly stood up and went to her to gave her a big and long kiss on the lips. Frida giggled at his behaviour and when they parted he spoke again "You look breathtaking" he whispered and she smiled at him

"And you're charming like always" she said and gave him a quick peck on the corner of his lips befor she went of to the kitchen to drink a glass of water and take her pills she needed to keep her iron level up

"What are these for?" Benny asked a bit worried

"You know, some people of our age have high blood pressure, I have to less iron in my blood" she laughed at his face. He immediately relaxed and smiled at her but than got a little sad when he saw her in her chrismas outfit

"I'm sad" he said suddenly and Frida looked at him confussed

"Because we can't spent chrismas together. Chrismas is the festival of love and the one I love the most is not with me on that day" he said and Frida frowned

"We talked about that Benny, it's still to early to tell everybody

"You don't love me" he crossed his arms and pretended to be angry

"Stop being childish I love you but not when you are a baby all of sudden" she laughed and cupped his face between her fingers and kissed him "Honey you have to leave, Hans will be here soon and I don't want him to see you" Benny nodded even thought it hurted him that hr couldn't show freely that he loved her, he understood her

"Have a beautiful evening" he said and got closer to her

"You too I love you" she said and took the chance that they were so close, to kiss him once more

Benny indeed left what made Frida somehow sad, but she had to put on a good face because soon she would be with her family and she couldn't be whiny now. Hans arrived ten minutes after Benny left. Frida greeted him by kissing his cheek and helped her to carry everything she needed to the car.

When they arrived at Hans house, Frida was immediately greeted by her two granddaughter and Jonathan, who has also arrived from New York with his girlfriend Alma. She was also Swedish and the two of them meet in New York around ten years ago, they both had studied music there in the same university.

Frida greeted all of them, also Alma, she liked her very much an hoped Jonathan would marry her one day and maybe get children of his own, her first great grandkid.

They all got dressed, they were already a bit in a hurry beacuse they needed to be in the church at time. One of their traditions were to go to the church befor than having a big chrismas dinner and last but not least handing out chrimas presents.

It was a pleasant evening, all the present were happy and very pleased with their presents and having the family around. After all, that did not happend very often, only for such special occasion like chrismas.

While they were talking, Fridas phone began to ring and Hans swore that he saw Benny's name on the screen which was suspicious because they never called each other. Frida excused herself and left the room and Hans decided to go behind her without anyone else noticing. She was on the upper floor and when Hans reached here he hid behind the corner to the corridor and listend to his mother words

"Love, I miss you too but we can see each other tomorrow"

"How are Heléne and Peter?"

"Okay bye I love you"

And than she hang up the phone and sighted our loud, he was to cute but it was stange to hide from her family. When she was about to went around the corner, Hand stepped infront of her and she immediately screamed a high pitched scream, she got very scared.

"HANS! You scared the fucking shit out of me!" she said loud with her hand on her heart

"Mom your words" he giggled

"I give a shit, do you want a dead mum?"

Hans didn't answerd and got straight ro the point "Did I interrupted something?" he pierced her with his gaze

Frida began to get nervous and play with her hands "Of course not" she said and looked up at him to sound more convincing but failed, Hans knew her to well

"It was Benny right or right?" Hans asked and crossed his arms

"N..no..noo of course not! Why should I talk to Benny? We have nothing to do with each other!" she began to get angry but that cauee Hans to believe her even less

"Mum I saw it on the screen and now I want the honesty! You called him my love and asked how Heléne and Peter were. Don't think I'm stupid!"

Now Frida knew there was no longer a sense in denying it, Hans already knew something was going on "You need to promise me to not tell a soul what I'm telling you now, promise me"

"For God's sake I promise you but now tell me what's going on"

"Okay" she took a deep breath once more and than let the bomb burst " Me and Benny are back together"

Frida looked at her son expectant and Hans mouth fell open, he couldn't belive what he just heard

"I...I..mum" he began but couldn't finish

"You can't tell a soul not even Ulrika okay?" Frida was nervous, she was not ready to tell everybody

"Okay. Are you happy?" that was the most important thing to Hans. Frida smiled at him, he was such a lovely boy "I am, very much" she confessed

"Since when?" Frida knew immediately what he meant

"Six days ago"

"Mum I'm very happy for you" he hugged her tight

"Thank you" she hugged him back "maybe we should join the other again befor they report us missing" she laughed and Hans agreed and they left back to the others
