Mocha, Friday lunch-time, Emily OTA
Emily sat in the Mocha with her laptop trying to concentrate on her column. The couple sitting nearby was talking loudly over their Christmas plans that included loads of food, relatives, presents ("But what if Pam gives me something? Then I have to have something for her!"), decorations and all sorts of other entertainment that to Emily sounded more like stress than fun family time.
Emily snorted to herself. She had not even thought of doing anything else but spending a quiet Christmas day at home alone with a bottle of Pinot Noir and a good book. She had not celebrated Christmas properly in almost a decade and had gotten alarmingly used to only working and being alone over the Holidays. Nowadays she did not even bother with decorating or any specific seasonal foods either - what was the use spending money on such humbug when you were alone anyway?
