Who: Everyone on the Island
Where: Rec Center
When: December 24, 2012
Summary: They enjoy the holidays
Every Christmas seemed to bring changes. The first year, it was a group of strangers, trying to pretend that they were friends and family, celebrating the holidays, even when they wanted to go home. Last year, they were at the ranch, with fake services and heavy hearts. This year, things had changed again.
Savannah had organized the dinner, putting everyone to work. In other parts of the world, theirs would be considered a truly expensive dinner, based on fish, seafood and lobster. The huge squids and shrimps had been fried or steamed for appetizers. Some of the squids had been stuffed for their main meal. There was pasta with the mussels and clams, while some had been cooked with wine and parsley. The lobsters had been steamed or made in the oven. There were plenty of side dishes and desserts. Hopeful, everyone would find something they liked.
For after dinner, Savannah had kept decorations on the side to let everyone help finishing the tree, before the concert.
It was simple, but genuine and hopefully being together made up for what they didn't have.
