So we all are right now seated in the living room, every one's neck is turned towards the huge clock on the opposite side or the wall.
Just ten seconds remaining for Christmas.
Now five.
"Five" Mate screams.
"Four" Nia follows him.
Aren't they a clingy couple?
"Three" Mandy squeals.
"Two" Accidently, Rob, me and Jack screams this in unison.
Now we all look at Richard to scream the last number.
"One!" He says softly.
Congratulations, its Christmas and I am furious.
"Party pooper!" Nia, Mandy and I pout and shout at him.
He ruined the Christmas Spirit!!!
"Chill out, girls, its Christmas." Mom says and takes a sip from her drink.
And we all roll our eyes.
But quickly get normal again.
"Merry Christmas!!!!!" Everyone shouts and grins. Well, not everyone but everyone.
You know what I mean, right?
Mate, Jack and Rob starts to make all the balloons burst and it seems like their moto is to destroy the world.
Boys!
Mom, dad, Mrs Collins and daddy are talking about something too mature for me. Richard and Mandy are fighting for the Christmas cap. Mandy lost her's and now is stealing Richard's. Nia is on phone with her best friend; probably wishing her.
And me?
Well, that's typical me. I am eating the cake.
What?
No one is interested in it. So I thought to myself cut it and eat secretly the first bite.
Ain't I smart?
But my peace life is just for a few minutes. Mate looks at me all of a sudden and his eyes widen at me. He is my best friend and so much like me. His love of life is food too.
"You cheat!" He points at me and shouts in shock.
Everyone's head turns towards me. I stop chewing for a second but then start again. And very comfortably, gulp the cake.
"You ate the cake!" Nia drops her phone and says.
"No biggie! I am just lucky I got the first bite." I say and take another piece.
"Put it down!" Mate shouts.
"He's right!" Nia shouts.
Jeez, these two!
"uh- fine." I say and turn towards daddy.
I extend my hand towards his mouth and he opens it. I land the cake in his mouth.
"Merry Christmas daddy." I say and look at everyone.
They're still staring at me like I have killed somebody.
But seeing me look at them, everyone turned away.
"Hush." I say and start to laugh.
Rob joins me too and then we all spend a very beautiful family moment by laughing together.
Its funny how a funny situation can turn into a cute one so easily.
My family can be easily converted into a comedy show. It will be a successful one for sure.
After everyone eats the cake, and opens the gift, we all walk to our respected rooms.
I take daddy to his room and with the help of Rob and the two nurses, make him lay down on the bed.
When the nurses are done giving him medicines, I sit near him. Rob chooses to wait outside and the nurses leave us alone too.
"Years after, I enjoyed Christmas, Mishi." Daddy says; his voice turning philosophical.
"I am glad." I smile and place my hand on his stomach.
He place his' above mine.
