December 24th, 2016.

Danielle was standing at the window, staring out at the street decorated with colored lights. The spirit of Christmas officially visited Great Britain and everyone lived the thought of meeting their loved ones on a special Christmas Eve day.

It was 9am and Danielle got up that day to help her mother bake the cakes and make the dishes.

Cindy had been active since early morning, and she was kicking everyone out of the kitchen except her daughter. Dustin was taking Hallie for a Christmas walk, and Danielle knew she had to finally do it.

The thought of calling George and talking to him fueled her with dread. They hadn't spoken since the fateful situation at the hotel, despite his best efforts.

But now there was a specific situation - Christmas Eve and Christmas. She left the kitchen in an apron and went to the bathroom, where she locked the door.

She sat down on the closed toilet bowl and took her cell phone from her pants pocket. She unlocked his number and took a deep breath. Then she dialed a number and waited, listening to the signal.

To her relief, George answered:

— Why are you calling?

His harsh words should baffle her, but she decided not to give him the satisfaction.

— George, I know how our relationship ended and ...

— You finished it, Danielle — he interrupted dryly. — Yeah, I fucked up because I'm a horny, perverted gay. I'll die like that, damn it.

— George, calm down ...

Why are you calling - to give me a fucking Christmas greeting?

Danielle was shocked by his attack. She closed her eyes and replied calmly:

— Yes, George. After all, I wish you good health, hope and happiness. And ... — She paused. — You can count on me, anyway.

—How can you wish me hope and happiness if you're not here? — He asked softly. — Or Hallie? You think it's okay? I screwed up, but is it going to make me have a sad Christmas?

— But you have sisters and father, friends ...

— I want you, Danielle. You hear? Only you. Will you come to see me today? You can take the whole family.

—You know the pain you caused my brother with Fadi. It is impossible.

— Then come alone, at least for a while.

—George, I'll be in touch with you soon.

— I'll fuck yours soon! — he said angrily. —I want you now. Is it so much?

—Yes, George, you're asking a lot at this point — she replied coldly. — At this point, my mother and I are very busy ...

He didn't answer, just hung up. Danielle looked at the phone and sighed. George was demanding again - he knew he had done something wrong, but nonetheless he thought she would drop everything and run to him.

She put her hand on her stomach, knowing she had to tell someone about her pregnancy soon.

Dante will understand me, he is always behind me. After all, he is my twin, we share an unusual bond.

As she emerged from the bathroom, an impulse came over her to go to Highgate after all, but that was her weakness. Just because they weren't talking to each other doesn't mean she didn't see him.

The day before, December 23th, 2016.

Christmas shopping is a magical time for everyone, especially children. Dustin, Cindy, Danielle and Hallie went to the mall for this pleasure.
