Hate To Love You ~ Guro Reiten

Surprise!

"RENA!" she shouted.

"I- What?" i said laughing.

"SURPRISE!!" she shouted once again.

"Oh my gosh, your so lucky that i have a spare room and that i'm the best sister" i replied shaking my head.

"Yeah i got scared we'd have to stay in a hotel" she chuckled. I let them in and took their bags into my spare room.

"Nice to see you again, Carlos" i said.

"Nice to see you again too, Renata" he said kindly.

"Hey, what did i tell you! Please call me Rena" i said joking with him. "How long are you staying for?"i asked my sister.

"Well we were thinking until after Christmas day, and leave boxing day? If that's okay with you?" she spoke.

"Yeah that's fine. I'm kind of happy i don't have to spend Christmas alone" i shrugged.

"Loner. Sorry. I'm sorry" she said "Anyway i thought you would be with Guro by now?"

"Actually shut up."

"I'm stating my opinion"

"And i didn't ask for it".

Nothing more than sisterly love right? I loved my sister and her and Carlos were perfect for each other. They soon went to bed as they were tired from travelling and i shortly followed behind after tidying a few things up. I was shattered but i usually am so it was nothing new.

The next few days the newly engaged couple went out to explore London together and kindly offered to cook for me as i was letting them stay at my home. It was nice having company but seeing them so lovey-dovey made me not only want to curl up and die but also made me want someone to love like that too. Like a soulmate i guess. I don't even know if i believe in them but still.

We had planned to rather then spend ages on a Christmas dinner for 3 people but to go out to eat at a restaurant. I had booked the table so we didn't need to worry about that. On Christmas eve i took them to Kingsmeadow and they bought some stuff from the shop as memorabilia. They said that at some point they'd come back to watch me play. Which i loved. When we got back we put on a bunch of Christmas films including Home Alone, Love Actually and the best one Nativity. I must've fallen asleep because when i opened my eyes i was in the lounge with a blanket on me, the lights and tv were off and i was also on my own. I lazily picked myself up and got into bed. I checked my phone to see that it was 4:00 in the morning. Which meant only one thing, it was christmas day! I messaged all my England friends and then the girls from Chelsea. I shut off my phone and went to sleep.

I got woken up to my sister and Carlos singing All I Want For Christmas by Mariah Carey really loud to get me up. I laughed and pulled myself out of bed. I had Christmas-y pyjamas on and i went to my wardrobe to get the presents i had bought for them. I walked into the living room and sat down. I handed over my presents to Carlos and Adella and they opened them. For Ada i got a necklace saying Sister on with a heart then a matching bracelet and for Carlos i got him an Alexa as he was saying he wanted one whilst he was staying here. They thanked me and gave me their present for me which was joint. They bought me a karaoke set which came with 2 microphones and a speaker. I laughed when i saw it because they knew i had always been a fan of karaoke. We all got dressed ready for our meal at the local restaurant and headed out.

We ordered our food and we were all talking about how good this had been and how they were sad to be leaving tomorrow. I was sad to. After we finished and payed we went to the local shop and bought some gingerbread houses to make. We made christmas cocktails and it was super fun. Carlos was definitely winning the competition as me and Adella kept sabotaging each others. We got all cosy afterwards and watched the last movie of this Christmas together and we chose watch Home Alone 2. Whilst we were watching i decided to post on Instagram.
