That was my grandmother’s first Christmas without Grandfather. When my parents and I arrived at her little house, we found she had waited up all night for us.
Grandfather had always said that the Christmas tree was the most important decoration (裝飾物) of all. So first we took out the beautiful tree that was stored in the closet (貯藏室). But the star was missing. It was my grandmother’s favorite part of the tree.
"Why? It must be somewhere in the closet," my grand-mother said.
As we opened up boxes one by one and found no star, my grandmother’s eyes were full of tears. Grandfather had given it to her some fifty years ago, on their first Christmas together. But on her first Christmas without him, the star was gone.
The next morning, my family sat down together to open the presents.
"The last gift is to Grandmother from Grandfather," Father said, in a strange voice.
"From whom?" There was surprise in my grandmother’s voice.
"I found this gift in Grandfather’s closet when we got the tree down," Mother explained.
My grandmother opened the box. There was a shinning (發亮的) golden star and a note in it:
Don’t be angry with me, dear. I broke your star while putting away the decorations, and I couldn’t dear to tell you. I hope it brings you as much happiness as the first one. Merry Christmas!
Love,
Bryant
