"I wasn't aware that you meant to buy them pre-made when you said you wanted to go tree shopping." Cedric approached Jessie as soon as he noticed her standing in front of the tree, jolting her out of her daydream.
Jessie swiveled around to face him. "I find this ready-made to be attractive." She said. "It has silver ornaments."
After clearing his throat, Cedric stopped next to Jessie. "I'm not here for the tree, though, but I still think families should work together. And by that I meant that I believed Abby and you were intended to get the ornaments and decorate together. You know, the Christmas spirit."
At Cedric's response, Jessie chuckled. She took a deep breath. "Believe me, I wanted that more than anything, but I still like this one. There are still other things we can decorate around the tree with since Christmas hasn't arrived yet. Like a red and white muffler, perhaps with a tiny Jesus Christ statue or star."
