After the dinner, Emma and her family went out for the walk on their way to the Main Street where everyone huddled together and celebrate the annual Christmas Tree Lights. She smiled on her face while cuddling with her mother. Henry was chattering with Neal and Everett about the comic books. It sent her to roll her eyes when she heard him talking about it and she knew that they were the suckers for their favorite superheroes.

They owned the t-shirts by each superhero that they bought it from New York Comic Con. It made them feel the pride for being the fan of every characters that they fell in love with the comic books for the first time. Henry is no Regina inside him but for his facial expressions, it is. Emma sighed when she stopped drifting on her memories and heard her mother's voice beside her.

"Are you feeling alright, Em?" It sent her to feel the shiver when she remembered that nickname since she was Henry's age. It was Regina who was calling her that for years and she never had an urge to say no to her about that nickname. Emma looked over at Mary Margaret and nodded with a retort.

"Yes mom, I'm fine. I just brought my memories. That's all."

"Oh." The pixie cut woman said with a small smile. The blonde actress looked back at their path from their mansion to the Main Street. She saw the people starting to get crowded on the street and yelled at her son who was already ahead with her brothers.

"Henry! Stay with Uncle Neal or Everett! I don't want you to get lost in the crowd!"

Everett heard his oldest sister behind him and sent his thumb up. The golden-haired woman was relieved that he was covering her place to keep his eye on her son. David comforted Emma's back with a smile. The golden-haired actress looked back at her father who was next to her mother and sent her smile back at him. He winked and chattered with Amy who was snuggling with her boyfriend.

Julie was snuggling with her husband, Everett who was laughing at his nephew's joke. Neal pointed over at the buildings and explained who owned those buildings. Henry chuckled and sent some jokes while hearing his Uncle talking about those buildings that they walked through. They got closer to the Main Street.

The brown-haired stud got Henry's hand and held on with him while they were trying to get through the crowd. Emma was closer to her brother, Everett who was holding Julie in his arms. Mary Margaret and David were behind Amy in the last of the line. They finally got out of the crowd in few minutes later.

Now, they walked a little bit of farther until they reached the stage in three rows back. Henry was next to Amy and Everett in their seats. Emma was in the middle between Neal and Julie. Her parents were at the end of the aisle behind their children and grandson. Ben was right next to Neal on other end of the aisle.

The crowd scattered away when it came to their seats. On the stage, there were several people who were chattering about their days. Emma looked around on the Main Street and there were no cars parking on the street. She was impressed with the seating chart that was along on the rows and there were six aisles in between the rows of the seats.

The Christmas lights were flashing everywhere on the stores' exterior walls and even doors with the Christmas wreaths. Everyone were in their cozy coats and laughed along with their friends and families but also, they were trying to get their seats quickly before the announcement. The music was still playing by two violinists and piano. It was a Christmas music.

It was the way Emma remembered for her years when she was younger. It inspired her when she first listened to the Christmas songs while she was with Regina at her house. She remembered every moment when Regina's mother sang beautifully on 'Joy of the World'. The golden-haired smiled at her memories and looked over at her son who was pointing everything when he was talking with Uncle Everett.

He seemed to enjoy it and it got Emma relieved for that moment. Amy scoffed when she heard the announcer and nudged her oldest sister with a retort. The golden-haired woman looked up at the announcer and heard her sister's voice.

"It's always Mr. Gold to announce everything when it comes to the Christmas season."

"Is that Mr. Gold? Wow, I've been not recognizing him very clearly. Wow, he is getting older than last time, he came to us for some troubles."

"Oh, I remember that time when you pulled a prank on him and it's so funny to watch him." The loud redheaded woman said with a snort. Emma laughed at the memory while listening to the peppered-haired man in his business suit's voice on his speech.

Mr. Gold was a business owner of his Pawn shop and has been serving for almost 20 years as US solider but went discharged because of his leg injuries. He was proud of himself when he came to Storybrooke before her birth. She remembered her very clearly when she broke in and pulled a prank on him when she was young. It was a fart bag. It caused her some troubles with Mr. Gold.

Now this time, the peppered-haired man was getting older and probably in his 60s but he looked great. He was well-known person who made the deals with everyone. Some of the people disliked his attitude but in the rest of others who liked him for his hospitality. It caused Emma to be confused which it was true and caused her to stop drifting away. She shook her head with a sigh and went to pay attention on Mr. Gold's speech.

"Now this time, I welcome you to the annual Christmas Tree Lights' Town Hall Mayor, Regina Mills!" He indicted his index finger toward the brunette woman who was standing beside her parents on the stage. Emma widened her eyes when she heard her son's other mother and went slack-jawed. She looked at her last and youngest brother with a retort.

"Regina is our Mayor?"

"Yes, she is since three years ago." The brown-haired stud man spoke lightly while nodding over at Regina. The blonde woman shifted her position on the chair and looked over at the brunette woman who was publicly speaking at her audience. She looked over at Regina's parents who were smiling widely.

"What happened to our old mayor?" Emma asked with a curiosity.

"Which one are you talking about?" Neal inquired with his furrowed brows. She sighed and continued.

"The one who was very sweet and always give away the candy on every visit."

"Oh. Mayor Astrid! She died right after you left. It was a heart attack." He explained while glancing at his sister and shifted closer to her for more explanation. Emma was surprised that she got new information on the mayors and kept listening to him.

"After she died, Regina's father was elected and took over the office like nine years ago until, well… you see right now. He got a health issue when it happened two and half years ago. It was almost perfect for Regina to come and visit her family like she used to do that. Now, she is the elected mayor after her father resigned or retired."

"Retired." David whispered to them when he listened to his children's curiosity on the mayors. Neal nodded at her with a poker face. Emma looked away at Regina who was still speaking on her speech and listened to her voice while she was bringing her memories back to their first day when they met.
