Hundred and Six

ZORA'S POV

I watched Finn and excitedly tear off another gift wrap. I winced a little at the squeal of delight that they let out at the same time. My ears still buzzed from the last one.

"Mum, mum, look. He got me another doll," cried Freya as she held out a realistic looking dolly still in it's plastic wrap.

I grinned. "Yes, sweetie. I can see that. You new doll is pretty. What are we going to call her?"

"Let me see," Finn said, and tried to take the doll from Freya.

She immediately held it out of his reach.

"It's not yours," Freya said.

Finn gestured to the pile of unwrapped toys beside him. "I let you see my own toys. Why can't I see your doll?"

I felt it was time to intervene now. It was the twins birthday and they had been happily unboxing Elliot's gifts for the past hour. They had gotten through a pile and still had about half a pile more to go.

"Why don't we go on with opening your presents?" I suggested. "I'm curious to know what is in all those pretty boxes. Aren't you?'
