    The Box – Chapter 4

    I get that look….yep THAT LOOK….the one that tells me that I am clueless. She sighs and heads off into the abyss known as the tree lot, leaving me standing there completely lost. After a few minutes I head off into the direction she headed to find her. Clearly I am missing something about this process.

    It takes me a few minutes of wandering aimlessly around the tree lot before I locate Tina. She is standing in front of a tree. To me it looks like the previous tree, you know green, branches…….but not to her.

    “Isn’t it perfect?” she softly asks.

    I’m not sure what I should say so I say nothing.

    She looks over at me. “Bette? What’s wrong?”

    I’m not sure how to answer her. This is all very new to me and not wanting to say the wrong thing, I am struggling to find the words.

    “It’s nothing T. Are you sure this is the one you want?”

    Tina watches me closely. She asks again what is wrong. Again I respond that everything is fine, and I tell her that I will find the salesman and purchase the tree. I return a short time later with the salesman in tow. He takes the tree and prepares it for travel then loads it for us.

    We make a stop to pick up some lights and decorations for the tree then make our way back to my home. Tina is like a little girl. She is so excited about this whole process, but I still do not feel that same joy. On one hand I am glad that this has made her happy. As I said, I would do anything to make her happy, but I’m just not getting this whole thing.

    Its a few hours later. The tree is decorated, and I have to admit, it looks great. Tina is pleased and even I have mellowed a little since earlier this afternoon. The lights in the house are all off, I’ve lit a fire in the fireplace and we are sitting cuddled up on the couch with only the lights on the tree illuminating the room. It brings a warmth and a glow that has not been present in my house in a very long time.

    5. I grew up loving the Christmas time, the tree, lights, tasty treats, and family (did I forget to mention the presents). To this day I love to see lights and decorations, as long as I don’t have to put them up myself. Actually, that is not the hard part, the putting together of the yard displays is what gets me confused.
