I blinked open my eyes startled at the unmerciful light that shone into my eyes. I shut them immediately hoping to prevent myself from blindness and most of all death by exhaustion and dropped back onto the warm cozy bed to continue dreaming of yummy chocolate .
Not long after managing to successfully sleep again, I was shaken awake by the obvious,my twin sister, Samantha who loves Christmas like nothing else! I'm even frightened at her love for Christmas . Somehow ,I'm not very convinced that it's not just the presents she loves but who am I to judge my totally perfect sister.
"Wake up ,Emily! Of all days to sleep like this ,you choose today!",she shouted in my ear
"Don't I always sleep like this ?", I managed to drawl out.
"Emily, hurry and get dressed!I don't wanna be stuck in a long queue to see Santa and I also wanna tell him a lot of things without kids shouting out at me because I'm taking too much time", Samantha groaned
"I told you already I don't want to go . Why force me ?"
I already knew the answer to this question. I had asked over and over again but every single time same reply,no difference .Well that is unless you count the sneeze in between her reply the last time.
I really didn't wanna go. What was going to happen today was that everybody was gonna fawn all over Samantha and they would only talk to me when they wanted to compare the two of us. Then her friends would come and they would all act standofish towards me and I'll be sad and all alone! That's what I am lonely.
Lonely lonely lonely
*I am with you*
_Nobody will want to be seen with the plain twin sister_
*I am with you*
_I'm sure you will regret your decision_
*I am with you*
_You seriously don't want to back out._
*I am with you and I will never leave you.*
_Well I think today might not be that bad after all if you do promise to be with me today_
*I am with you and I will be with you*
_Well then maybe, just maybe today won't be so bad after all._
Weirdly enough, I wasn't freaking out at the fact that I had just had a conversation with someone who said he was going to be always with me and I'm sure many 10 year olds would be freaked out. It was rather a comforting thought and I gladly embraced this.
"Emily! Snap out of it. You've been daydreaming for like five minutes. Would you just hurry up please? "
"Okay fine I guess today won't be so bad after all" , I smiled as Samantha grinned in excitement of not having to drag me along with her while in a bad mood .
And I believe it would be the best Christmas I had ever had.
