Chapter 22

Ameline: Merry Christmas!

Gabe: You're up early.

Ameline: We're in New York so it's not that early. Are you still sleeping?

Gabe: No, I was waiting a little longer before messaging you. I didn't want to wake you up. How's the Christmas vacation going?

Ameline: It's decent, I can't complain. Izzy has been able to balance things between museums and all the shopping Helen wants to get done. We gave Helen an all day spa gift so tomorrow she'll be gone and the four of us will be able to enjoy the day.

Gabe: Smart.

Ameline: What are your plans?

Gabe: The same as always. We open presents at home, then move to my grandparents for the rest.

Ameline: Well, enjoy. I'm heading out for breakfast and then . . . I don't know. There's not much to do today but tomorrow should be fun. Merry Christmas. x
