After our ,lunch', we walk a little  around the Christmas fair.  Melissa talks with Jim and Luke starts to have a conversation with me. ,,So any news from collage?" He asks while he looks at a little Christmas tree next to us. ,,Nope, I guess it will take a while till I get my  Acknowledgement." ,,Oh, so your sure that you will be accepted on my collage?" ,,Oh, well no... I hope but I'm not sure. I mean there are other very good,young people..." He smiles. ,,Don't worry Emily, Im sure you will be accepted. You had good grates, you worked by your parents and they are both doctors. And you have a good heart. I  mean you know how to talk with children especially when they're shy." I laugh. Yes it's true what he says, but is that enough to get to collage? ,,Kind of... I'm also very shy.... I just try to do my best..."  We keep walking and stop sometimes to buy something or talk with people Luke,Jim or Melissa know. I almost run into a child and Melissa. The little girl is crying and Melissa tries to calm her down. Unsuccessful. ,,Hey  what happened?" I get on my knees to look at the girl. ,,I don't know... She won't stop crying." ,,Let Emily try. I think she can make her stop crying." ,,Hey little girl, are you okay? Please stop crying." The girl looks at me. ,, M-Marlene?" She asks and smiles. Her brown eyes glow for a moment.,,No I'm sorry I'm not Marlene. I'm Emily. What is your name?" She wipes over her face and strokes her brown hair back. ,,Stella." ,that's Spain'   Some voice in my head says. ,,Hablas español?" Stella nods. ,,Sí, lo hago." The others probably think I'm crazy because they don't speak Spain. But that doesn't matter at the moment. ,,Por qué estás llorando? Ha pasado algo?" ,,He perdido a mi madre y a mi hermana..." More tears running over her face. ,,Oh...." I turn to my friends. ,,She lost her mom and her sister... I think the name of her sister is Marlene, cause she thought my name is Marlene." All three nod. ,,Deberíamos ayudarte a ayudar a tu mamá de nuevo?" ,,Sí" She takes my hand and stands up. ,,Okay, Guys we're going to search her sister and her mom. Is that okay?" ,,Yes, alright." Melissa,Jim and Luke agree so we start to walk. ,,Cómo son tu hermana y tu madre?"  The girl explains that her mom is a tall woman with short black hair and brown eyes. Her sister looks like me, she says, just shorter. I repeat what she said in English and we start to search them. After a while Melissa shouts:,, Emily! I think I found her Mom!" Stella turns around and starts to run as fast as she can. Or rather say we run as fast as she can. A few meters in front of us are standing  two women.  One looks like me just in shorter and the other has short black hair and a face like the little girl.,, Mamá! Marlene!" She jumpes in the arms of her mom.  ,,Dónde has estado?! Estaba muy preocupado por ti!" Melissa stands next to me. ,,What does she say?" ,,She says that she was worried about her daughter." Stella explains and points to us. ,,Te han ayudado, cariño?" ,,Sì,Mamá."  Luke and Jim smile as they see that Stella found her family. Marlene grabs Stella's hand and hugs her.,, We were very worried. Please don't do that again...." ,,Thank you so much!" The mom of Stella adds and walks to us.,, How did she tell you.Stella is usually very shy. ,, Emily speaks spanish as well. She noticed that Stella also speaks spanish and asked her what happend." Luke looks at me. Stella's Mom looks at me & Melli and gives us her hand. ,,Eres Emily?" ,,Soy Emily" I answer and shake her hand.,, Muchas gracias!"  Stella runs to me and hugs me. ,,Thank you,Emily." ,,Don't worry,I'm glad you found them." ,,I don't know how to say thank you,Emily." She grabs some chocolate From her bag. ,,Take that as a reward. And share some with your friends." We say goodbye and they leave. ,,So, what now?" Jim asks. ,,I don't know...." Melissa reply's. ,,What about we eat the chocolate now? After that we could go back...." I give everyone a little bit of the chocolate. Melli hesitants  for a moment. ,,Thanks..."  ,,You okay?" ,,Y-Yes I'm fine." She smiles softly. We walk back to Melissa's car. Jim and Luke look at us. ,,Emily, Melissa do you want to go to my place maybe? I mean it's 5 p.m. do you really want to go home?" ,,We'll, I don't have to do anything... What about you Melli?" ,,Oh well, I don't mind." ,,Perfect." Luke smiles. ,,Is it okay when we drive with your car, Melissa?",,Yes, I think you came without a car?" ,,Yep,right." ,,Okay than get in." Melissa and I sit in the front, Luke and Jim in the back. ,,Can I turn the radio on,please?" I say and and turn it on. It's the 6th December, happy St. Nicholas Day! We hope you all got your chocolate. It goes on with ,rocking around the christmas tree' from Brenda Lee!

A voice in the radio says. I  look in the rear-view mirror to Luke. He stares at his phone and shows something to Jim. ,,Bro,look at that." Jim laughs nervous. ,,Er yeah..... Melissa, should I send you the address of Luke's place?" Melissa starts the car. ,,Yeah why not. Can you give me your number?" Luke smirks and looks to me. I understand what he wrote on his phone and giggle. ,,Wait I give you my phone and you text me then?" Jim takes her phone and looks at her number. ,,Yeah wait...... So I send you." Melissa tells me to take her phone. I take the phone and tell her the address. ,,Thanks Jim. By the way, why don't we all exchange numbers? It's much easier...." ,,Good Idea! You two can do a group, so we don't have to exchange numbers extra?" They agree. Melissa turns the radio louder and sings the song. We three join in as well. It feels very good to hang out with friends.
