Case of the Missing Gift

Little Kat is away visiting his grandfather for Christmas. Kit Kat's boyfriend came over to eat Christmas dinner with us. My brother went to church in the morning. When he came home, Momoko thought we should proceed to gift opening.

We went round robin. Kit Kat had the most gifts. Finally my brother opened all his gifts. But he had not opened the one I gave him. I went over to the Christmas tree and tore it up. No gift for my brother. I went downstairs to my study. No gift.

I figured maybe I gave his gift to another friend by mistake. Later my brother stood up to take his gifts to his room. There on his chair was my gift. Somebody must have placed it on his chair and he sat on it.

Thank goodness. I thought I was going crazy there for a second. I knew I wrapped my brother's gift. It was a keychain with a heartfelt message inscribed on it. I doubled wrapped it in an envelope and then some wrapping paper because it was small.
