“We have a feast now.” After dinner, we exchanged our gifts. Noah opened the book first, a worn paperback copy of a science fiction novel he had mentioned wanting to read. He turned it over in his hands, his thumb tracing the creased spine with a gentleness that made my throat tight. Then the pencils, then the coffee, each gift received with the same careful wonder, as if he could not quite believe that someone had chosen something specifically for him. "Your turn," he said, and he handed me a small box wrapped in brown paper and tied with a piece of red string.

Understanding I wouldn't get anything from her, I began to unbox some of the gifts and I wondered if these people had laid them down in advance or had gone to buy all these things the minute the trial had ended.

Thank you, baby.” We kept exchanging gifts, a soft hand-knit scarf for her, and tickets to a show for me, something we’d been talking about for weeks. With each gift, we laughed, smiled, and shared quick kisses, wrapping paper piling up on the floor like confetti.

"Gift?" "Yes, a Christmas present." She answered. "And yours?" The lady asked. She shrugged. "Any plans for Christmas?" "Yes, me and my blanket, snuggling on my bed," she whispered and laughed.

Arlyle and Artie, on the other hand, were beside themselves with joy as they unwrapped their gifts, revealing the latest and most advanced laptops. Each unwrapped a state-of-the-art laptop.

Some gifted her clothes, creams for her delicate skin, and, of course, her favorite strawberry cookies. For my part, I gave her a beautiful necklace I had seen in a lovely store a few days ago. The boys, not settling for much, gave her what she truly needed: Ryan gave her materials for university, the twins a Superman shirt they'd probably never take off, Paul a CD with his thunderous rock music, and Carl a photography book. Lauren received makeup and clothing to cover her skin more, Katia got accessories she'd use at least once a year, Blake a special camping kit for whenever he fancied going, and Brooke got a pile of romance books, as she adored them.
