1099 Words5 Pages

The days passed by quickly and before they knew it, it was Christmas day. Bella had spent the past three days with Edward while her mother was away with Phillip. During that time she thought long and hard about what to get Edward. She ended up purchasing a braille talking watch, but it wasn’t enough. She wanted to give him something else. Something she couldn’t buy from a store.
They exchanged gifts first thing in the morning and Bella received a beautiful necklace from Edward as well as a leather journal for her writing. Shadow received a new harness.

    She’d give her parent the best face of sadness that she could muster, and give her apologies for not being able to stay long too-even though she didn’t mean it. Her father always asked when he could see her, and he’d always accept whatever answer she gave him even if she didn’t go through with it. Except, this was not the case today. She couldn’t walk towards the door; all she wanted to do was just hop onto the closest flight to California.
