Luckily while I was gone Rob got the children gifts, Madrian nad SEan got the most and Daniel got a few. i watched tiredly as sean excitedlyripped open gifts and then patiently help Madrian open her own. I unwrapped sleeping Daniels.
After opening preasents and checking stockings I mde a Christmas breakfast. after brekfast we headed over to my parents whre they opened more gifts. "Oh Mother," I breathed at the diamond necklac. "Youreally shouldn't have," I said. "Oh darling of course I did, you deserve it," she hugged me onnce and then helped Sean figure out how to put together a toy plane he'd gotten. I while I watched this Daddy came over and sat next to me. "What are you gonna do while you're in school little lady," he smiled. I trned and looked at him. "I have no idea," I rocked Daniels carseat some more. "WEll was it worth it? Having children so young I mean?" he whispered. "i looked t each childs face and decided.."It deffinately was," I beamed proudly. "That Bryan was toruble. I knew the day he attacked you," Dady griped. The doorbell rang. Quickly I got up and opened the door. "Bryan?" I said softly. "Mindy? You'r human!" he said he had three shiny boxes wrapped. "They can't know you're here," I said hotly. "They're m kids," he said threateningly. "I don't care, you two timing jrk," I took the preasens and slammed the door. I walked back to the living room "ook Santa brought more," I SAID Excitedly. Lucky forme none of the children could read, Sean rpped hem open. A LEATHER HALTER!" he squealed he shoved to me showing me the silver nameplate that said in curve Apollo. I helped Madrian open hers. It was a new baby doll nd Daniel got a moo cow. "How thoughtful," I said my heart fliped then flipped back.
I got up and went and poured myself and my mother some coffee. i sat next to her as we watched the children play. "Who was at the door?" she asked softly. I turned to her, and solemly answered, "Bryan," She nodded feverishly. "What are you goig to do about him?" she asked. I asked myself the exact same question, "What was I going to do about him?"
