THE MORNING JOY

As the sun was rising from beyond the mountains and as the sunrays broke through our bedroom window glass.

My sister woke up in a rush as she yelled. Wake up! wake up! I jumped out of bed and ran towards my sister not knowing what had happened.

There she was standing in the kitchen. I ran towards with my heart pounding “What is wrong?” I asked as I tried to grasp a breath of fresh air. She said “it is morning we need to have breakfast and start the preparations”.

I looked at my sister in shock. She usually would be the one fast asleep and would take us a village to wake her up. There she was in the kitchen preparing a breakfast fit for A Christmas morning for her and I. “It is a true Christmas miracle” I said out loud as I made my way through to the living room.

As I sat on the couch and I reached to turn on the pink table lamp, I thought to myself, today is the day when we will meet. I was brought back to reality when I heard the noise coming from the plate as my sister reached for her red Turkish cup of coffee. As I drank my tea and chit-chatted with my sister, time flew by so fast.

It was time to get up and start with the preparations. At that point, my sister came towards me with a fur throw that she took from the ceramic pot next to her and ran towards me as she hugged and kissed me. This filled my heart with joy. After all, today was the day where we will finally be gathered with our family.

The level of excitement was through the roof as we started to take back our breakfast to the kitchen and prepare lunch while decorating for Christmas.
