Day 1
I was walking up to my condo when I felt a snowball hit my back. I stop and turn. What the heck? "Hello?" I say. I don't see anybody. I shrug it off and turn around and get hit with another snowball. I stomp my foot and turn around. "Becka!" I shout. She comes out laughing with her boyfriend Austin. "Calm down. It's the 1st of December have some joy will you?" I roll my eyes. "I don't like Christmas." They gasp. I turn on my heel and walk in.
"Zoey! Get back here!" They follow. I get in the elevator and close the door before they get in. It goes up and then stops at my floor. I get off and find them by my door. Ugh! "Really guys!" I walk up to the door and unlock it. "Come on Zoe! You were always excited about this time of year!" I roll my eyes.
"Yeah Zoe. You never stopped talking about it why now?" I set my purse on the table and put my jacket on the chair. I sit down. "Will you guys calm down?" I say taking off my shoes. Mental note: Never walk in heels in winter. "No we will not! Zoe you haven't been the same since he left. Let it go!" I sigh.
"I have let it go."
"NO. Or else your apartment would be decorated with tuns of lights and Christmas decorations!" She states. "Becka. You have been my best friend for so long. I love you like a sister."
"Yeah and I love you too." Austin frowns. "Hey! Right here you know!" We roll our eyes. "Anyway. As I was saying. I love you and since he left you know I would never be the same. I guess I just have nothing else to do."
"What do you mean!? You have a family that's 2 hours away! You have us Zoe." I say nothing. "Look when you get your spirit back come to us. Cause now your ruining mine." I frown and they leave. "Now Becka I don't think you mean that." Austin says. He's like a brother to me. He always tries to help me and Becka when it's things like this.
"Yeah. Yeah I do mean that." She says something in Spanish really fast while marching out. "Ugh. You guys. On the holidays." He walks out with her. He hugs me. "Come on, up your Christmas spirit." I smile and he walks out when she yells his name. I close my door and lock it. I slide down my door and sit on the floor. Great I just lost my friend on the holidays. Well I think I did. I get up and walk to my room. I sigh.
"Their saying deck the halls.
But It's not like Christmas at all
Cause I remember when you were here
And all the fun we had last year
Pretty Lights on the tree
I'm watching them shine
You should be here with me
Baby please come home" I sing softly and add the lyrics to my song. I put my journal away and turn on the TV. Christmas. Everywhere. Christmas specials. Christmas movies. Christmas love stories. I turn off the TV and lay down. I hear laughing and look out my window. A couple is smiling holding hands and playing in the snow. They then kiss and starts to walk off. I roll my eyes and close my window. I lay down and soon fall asleep.
