A/N: I really don't know why I decided to make a chapter based on Christmas. That's just a lot of action and I don't really know what to write. I don't know if it's just me, but I don't like writing too many characters perspectives into one chapter and I don't like having so many people "speaking" in one chapter. It's good to have a variety of different dialogue but for me personally, I don't like writing like that. So this chapter isn't really as detailed as I wanted it to be but 🤷‍♀️ you'll enjoy the next couple of chapters anyways 😉

Kimayah Carter 💋
I sat around the dinner table disgusted by what I had seen. I kept sending daggers across the table to both Tion and that other bitch. Why was she even still here? She saw me staring at her and shot me a fake smile and returned back to looking down at her phone.

"So guys! Merry Christmas to you all. Although not everyone has arrived yet, I want to thank those wanted and UNWANTED guests who are here to spend Christmas with the Carter's.. Thank you lord for blessing us with this wonderful food, AMEN. please tuck in" my mum said, throwing shade Ayesha's way 🤧

She cut her eyes and started plating everyone's food up. The tension around the table was quite intense. Me and my sister Tamiyah kept nervously gigging because this shit was awkwarddd.

Dajan kept screwing me, Tion was trying to avoid eye contact, everything about this seating plan pissed me off, I'd rather just eat in my room.

Finally after a long time the door bell rang, without hesitation I jumped up and ran to the door. To my surprise it was my cousins, Kayan, renae and Kavani. I kind of forgot that they were coming. They barely ever show up to anything these days which kinda caught me by surprise.

I miss spending time with my family, it seems like it's been forever. I only ever see them whenever there's a christening, funeral or Christmas which is kinda sad. I'd like to plan a family holiday one day, I think that would be good because our family is huge and it seems like we're all drifting apart.

Anyways, I had let them all in and they scattered to God knows where, leaving me standing by the door in deep thought. I wasn't sure why, but my mind ran across kieran for a hot second. I quickly shook away my thoughts... I didn't want to think of anything besides Christmas at this point in time otherwise my mood would be ruined.

I rolled my eyes and locked my phone, without responding. I knew exactly who it was and I wasn't going to entertain this, not today!

My thoughts were interrupted by my cousin kavani running towards me.

"Kimmy Where is uncle kion?" Kavani asked me

That's when It had hit me.. my dad hasn't been seen since I've gotten back. I didn't think much of it, but where could he be on Christmas Day? He wasn't at the breakfast table eating with us, that was quite odd. He wouldn't miss my mums Christmas brunch, everyone knows that Christmas brunch hits differently to the regular smegular. I didn't want to worry too much though, he's a big 38 year old man.. He must've been collecting the rest of my cousins to bring them over.. but I wouldn't know.

"He's on his way back home" I smiled and brushed him off

I didn't want to worry anyone else.

Me - dad where are you, we are going to start opening presents soon x

I sent him a quick text hoping he'd arrive soon. I didn't like this awful feeling that something could've happened to him. I couldn't shake it off either, as much as I tried, my brain kept on thinking about the most scariest scenarios.. I deffo needed some alcohol in my system
