    ... around her and pulled her into a tight hug.
    
    “It was beautiful! You all did such a lovely job,” Annie gushed about their performance. It really had been one of the best services she had seen.
    
    “Have you seen Beth yet? She’s around here somewhere,” Susan asked as she looked around the crowd. “She brought Michael with her.” Susan gave Annie a knowing look. Just then, Annie spotted their other friend.
    
    Beth came up to her excitedly and hugged her as well. “Merry Christmas, Annie!” she said. “I was so nervous about the solo, but now I’m so happy I did it.” Beth was wearing a white cloth dress that made her look like the picture of innocence.
    
    “I never even knew you could sing like that!” Annie said. “Now I’m thinking I’m going to have to host a karaoke night.”
    
    Beth frowned, “Okay, I’m not sure I’m ready for that just yet.”
    
    Annie laughed heartily at her friend’s reaction. Michael walked up and put his arm around Beth as he joined the group.
    
    “Hey, everyone,” Michael said as he waved at the group in general. He was underdressed for the occasion, wearing a wrinkled and untucked button-up shirt with a pair of work jeans and boots. His hair was also greasy and unwashed, which added to how out of place he was. It seemed like he must have come straight from work. He stood in stark comparison to Beth.
    
    “Hey Michael, good to see you,” Annie answered, trying to be supportive. The group fell into an awkward silence now that he had joined the group.
    
    Thankfully, Annie ...
    ... was rescued when Jeff came back to her.
    
    “Great job, you two,” Jeff said, praising Beth and Susan. “You’ll have to work on getting Annie to join the choir next!”
    
    Susan laughed, “We’ve been trying. She won’t do it.”
    
    “I only look like an angel. I don’t have the voice of one,” Annie joked. Jeff’s hand squeezed her side lovingly. They continued talking for a few minutes until Beth and Michael left. Susan and Annie gossiped briefly about them once they had gone, and then it was getting close to time for them to head home.
    
    “Well, excuse us. I think we have to wrangle some kids home,” Jeff said. They gave hugs all around, collected the twins, and then made their way to Jeff’s truck.
    
    The drive home was quiet as the kids drifted off in the backseat. Annie intertwined her fingers with her husband’s and leaned her head onto his thick shoulder. Soft Christmas music was playing from the truck speakers. It felt like everything was right in the world as she watched the blur of Christmas lights through the window.
    
    Jeff turned the truck into the driveway, but the kids didn’t arouse at all. The house was dark as Jeff carried them to bed and tucked them in while she went to the restroom. Annie took a deep breath, preparing herself.
    
    She strutted out and into the bedroom. Jeff was getting ready for bed, taking off his sports coat and unbuttoning his shirt. He didn’t say anything as she stood there, but she hadn’t changed her mind about getting what she wanted.
