*35* Sam
Sam sat on the leather couch holding the warm cup of coffee in her hands, looking out the large window in front of her, watching the sunrise. She took a drink from the cup smiling remembering the last few days. It had been the best in her life by far. Mark had proposed to Tabby when they had gone out for last night for Christmas Eve. She was the reason Sam was up so early, Tabby had called her at five in the morning to tell her the news.
Sam smiled again, thinking of the conversation, as she took another drink of her coffee. She hoped it would help calm her nerves, today they were going over to David’s parent’s house for Christmas. Sam was running through possible ways to get out of it, she was sure they’d hate her for what she did to their son, and she was still sure the incident in the kitchen wasn’t going to help her case any.
