toi were actually close to Soda. Danny played with Grace and Logan all the time. toi couldn’t even begin to imagine how they felt.
toi hear the front door open. Darry was accueil now. toi take another deep breath, and sit at the cuisine table.
Just breathe.
He walks into the kitchen. “Hey babe, what’s wrong?” He asks, setting down his wallet and keys.
toi swallow. “I got a call.” Is all toi manage to say.
“About?” He asks, eyebrows raised.
“Soda’s dead.” toi blurt out.
The look on Darry’s face would haunt your memory for the rest of your life.
He just sat down on the floor in pure shock, mouth open, eyes wide.
“Hmmm… Merry Christmas.” toi mumble.
“I got all of Danny’s presents under the tree.” He says, snuggling down into the lit a little more.
“Did toi remember the football?” toi ask.
“Yeah, I remembered that. It’s the best gift.” He smiles. “He’ll l’amour it.”
“Yeah…” toi mumble.
“Before toi fall back asleep, I have a present for you.” He whispers to you.
“Mhmm?”
He leans over you, montrer toi a black box.
toi open it, to see the most beautiful necklace.
“It was my mom’s.” he mutters. “I thought you’d like it.”
“I l’amour it.”
“Merry Christmas, honey.”
