"Can I come out now?" I call out from inside my bedroom.
I hear ruffling around and some shuffling.
"No! G- give me a minute!" Mom's voice yells back from out in the living room.
I try to poke my head out from my doorway but I can't see anything so I shut my bedroom door and sit on my bed. Waiting for Mom to give me the green light. Today's Christmas, the one day a year that, in my family, we stay in our pajamas all day long. While I wait, I text Ayla to wish her a merry Christmas.
After I text Ayla, I pull up Ember's contact and text her also.
Ember texts back almost instantly.
