Christmas Miracle

A few hours later we were leaving to go to our Christmas Eve dinner with my extended family. As I was grabbing the cold car door handle a faint shout came from behind me and I turned slowly to look Racing myself for what was about to come. The neighbor lady had been so cruel to me hours earlier holding the rum raisin cakes in my note and Leaning off the porch her robe dangling and a cigarette between her fingers She yells the most beautiful words of reconciliation. "I'm sorry"
