Chapter 28
Chirstmas Eve
December 24, 1998
Cerise pointed to the wrapped boxes. She hurt her voice box after she got a cold, "Paah."
"Yeah, presents. Some are for you." I told her.
"Uhh." She kicked.
"No, not yet." I said, rubbing the baby's back.
"She wants to open a present?" Red asked.
"Yeah. C'mon, let's go nap." I took Ceris' to her crib and read her a story.
After she woke up, we went to Mama's and had dinner. Cerise liked the food. Red had her own meal. I got some cheesecake and gave Ceris' a little. Then we opened presents. Red got a red wine and some cups too. Cerise got a new toy, a ball. And I got a bottle of gold dust wrapped in a sweater. Mary stole from some pirates. The sweater was of a scary cave painting wolf eating cave painting sheep. Not bad... in the fashion way.
