As Christmas Day dawned, the excitement in the air was palpable. The journey to Kansas had been filled with laughter and joy, but beneath it all, a sense of apprehension lingered. Travis had just lost the game, and I knew that he would be feeling the weight of defeat.

As we watched the game on the jet with my family, I couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness with each missed opportunity and failed play. But even as disappointment threatened to overshadow the holiday spirit, I held onto the hope that my gift would bring a smile to Travis's face.

Touching down in Kansas, I felt a rush of nervous energy course through me as we made our way to Travis's house. The vintage Cadillac I bought for Travis sat gleaming awaiting us once we landed.
I had spent weeks searching for the perfect present, wanting to find something that would show him how much he meant to me, even in the face of defeat. I had my security drive the car as I didn't want any of my family members to be seen for privacy.

Arriving at Travis's my family was eager to meet Travis. They can tell that I'm the happiest I've been in a relationship. As I rang the doorbell and waited for Travis to answer, I couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation. This was it – the moment of truth. And as the door swung open and Travis's eyes met mine, I held my breath, hoping against hope that my gift would bring a smile to his face.

When Travis saw me and my family a warm smile spread across his face as he welcomed my family inside. But as his gaze fell upon the vintage Cadillac parked in the driveway, his expression shifted from one of surprise to sheer disbelief.

"Whoa, is that...?" Travis's voice trailed off as he stepped outside, his eyes widening in astonishment as he took in the sight of the sleek, classic car.

I watched anxiously, my heart pounding with nervous anticipation, as Travis circled the Cadillac, running his hand over its smooth, polished surface. And then, suddenly, he turned to me, his eyes shining with excitement.

"Dua, is this... is this for me?" Travis's voice was filled with wonder as he looked at me, his expression a mixture of shock and joy.

I nodded, unable to contain my own excitement as I watched him take in the gift. "Merry Christmas, Travis," I said softly, my voice trembling with emotion. "I know how much you've always wanted to add a vintage Cadillac to your car collection, so I thought..."

But before I could finish, Travis pulled me into a tight embrace, his arms wrapping around me as he held me close. "Thank you," he whispered, his voice choked with emotion. "This is... this is amazing. I can't believe you did this for me."

As we stood there, wrapped in each other's arms, surrounded by the warmth and love of the holiday season, I knew that I had made the right choice.

As excitement bubbled over, my little brother's Djin eyes widened with wonder at the sight of the vintage Cadillac parked in the driveway. "Can we go for a ride, Travis?" he asked eagerly, his face lighting up with anticipation.

Travis grinned, his enthusiasm contagious as he turned to my brother. "Absolutely!" he replied, his voice brimming with excitement. "Hop in!"

With a whoop of delight, my brother scrambled into the passenger seat of the Cadillac, his eyes shining with excitement as Travis slid into the driver's seat. I watched smiling as I took in the scene before me – Travis and my little, sharing a moment of joy and excitement on this magical Christmas Day.

As Travis and my brother returned from their exhilarating drive in the vintage Cadillac, the excitement in the air was palpable. With smiles plastered on their faces, they bounded up the driveway, eager to rejoin the rest of the family.
