A Christmas Misunderstanding - A Photostory

Hello

Greetings

Welcome

Hi

Hiya

IT'S NEARLY CHRISTMAS, SO MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

I cannot believe that it's Christmas Eve Eve. I'm mentally still stuck in November, maybe October, possibly even September... O.O

But anyway, I'm sorry I never posted last week, things got in the way- tis the season. XD

Isabelle and Cecile sat around the living room, talking and chatting about whatever crossed their minds. Christmas was only a couple days away, and it was rumored they were supposed to decorate soon. 

Molly trotted into the living room, a smile on her lips.

"Guess what, guys?" she asked in a sing songy voice.

"What?"

"I just heard Emma saying that she got us a new tree this year! I wonder what it's gonna be," Molly exclaimed, walking closer. 

"Cool!" the girls cried. "I wonder if it'll be green!"

"I wonder if it'll have colored lights?"

They continued to talk about the possibilities, until Emma came by and dropped a plastic bag in the room. She left without a word, because she was on the phone FaceTiming Jaclynn. 

The girls stared at the bag, the moment stretching out. Finally, Molly leaped into action and tore at the bag. 

She pulled down the bag, snatched the tree and set it in the middle of the room. 

They stared at it, unmoving. 

"It's white," Cecile murmured.

"It's already decorated," Isabelle said. 

"It's plastic!" Molly shouted. An air of distain and disappointment settled in the air as they looked at the tree. 

"What is that?" Nikki asked, coming into the room. Molly explained the situation and their new tree. 

"This is awful! This tree isn't even supposed to be decorated! It's atrocious!" she ranted. The girls all nodded in agreement. 

"We need to do something to show how much this is unacceptable," Nikki said, and the girls came closer, circling the tree.

"Like?" Isabelle asked. 

Nikki grabbed Emma's trash can and hoisted the tree into it. The girls all watched nervously.

"This! It'll show how we feel about it! We want our pink tree back!" Nikki answered. Glitter was spread all over the place, including herself, so Nikki dusted herself off.   

Jess burst into the living room, her face showing her shock.

"What are you guys doing?" she asked.

"We are making a statement," Molly replied, squaring her shoulders.

"What kind of statement are you making by throwing away Emma's new room decoration?" Jess questioned.

"Room...decoration...?" Cecile chimed in.

"Yes! This isn't our Christmas tree, if that's what you thought."

The girls laughed awkwardly. "Oh..."

"This is our tree," Jess continued, and Adam stumbled in, carrying the large Christmas tree box.

The girls all cheered and drew the white tree from the trash can. They set it back on its stand, then grabbed their Christmas tree from the box. 

They put it in its normal place, Jess shaking her head at them. The four girls immediately went to work. Christmas was coming and they had a house to decorate!
