It was late once I arrived home. Radford was spending the night at his mom's(which I understand. It was Christmas Eve.), so I decided to get some sleep.

I got up to pick Streber up from the hospital, when I'm approached by a nurse.
"You're here for Streber, right?" She asked.
I nodded. "Yup!" I was so excited. I couldn't wait to spend Christmas with him.
The nurse sighed. "Well...I'm afraid that there were complications...he's gone..."
~~~~~~~
I woke up in a cold sweat. Just a nightmare...
I checked the time on my phone. It was 5:18 am. Streber would be discharged at around 1:30pm.
I tried to go back to sleep. Streber was fine, I kept reminding myself. I was going to see him later today.

After a few hours of tossing and turning, I decided to just get up, and get ready to go to my parent's house. Our Christmases were never too big. It was usually just me, my brother, mom, dad, and sometimes my aunt, uncle, and my younger cousins. They all knew Streber. I introduced him to them a few years ago. They all seemed to like him.
I had told my parents that I was going to leave at 1:00pm to pick up Streber from the hospital, but that I'd be back with him a bit later on.
I took a shower and threw on a pink hoodie and black sweatpants. I was really grateful that my family didn't expect formal clothes at Christmas. I don't think I'd survive.
I grabbed the gifts I had for my family, grabbed my phone and keys, and before I headed out the door, I had a bit of an idea for a gift for Streber. I didn't think he'd wake up in time for Christmas, so I didn't end up getting anything.
But I had the perfect idea.
