Jenny woke up, hearing some noise in the kitchen.
“Oh my god!! He is cooking!! Not again!!!” she pulled herself out of bed and ran into the kitchen.
“Steve!!” she screamed. “Don’t wreck my kitchen. It’s still suffering from your previous visit. I have had enough of your royal dinner”, she grabbed the bread slice and pushed him out of the kitchen. She was having fun doing all this.
“Stop it! Will ya? I am an expert cook now. See now I don’t burn toasts anymore. I make scrambled eggs but they turn out to be scrambled pans!” and he showed her a pitch-black pan. Jenny’s face was filled with disgust and just then the oven timer went off.
“What have you done with my oven??” she screamed as she looked into the oven.
“Hey ! I was planning on having some cake!!” Steve remarked.
“Well I see what you mean by cake!!. Now I don’t need your expert cooking anymore. I’ll take care of breakfast and now you go watch TV or read the paper for all I care. But just get the hell outta here”, she pushed him out.
Jenny lived in a two-bedroom apartment near Central Park. The place was very spacious and now that Andy had left it was empty!!
“Say Jenny! Are you working today”, Steve asked her as if nothing had happened. “If not what do you say we go shopping for your and my Christmas gifts??”, he looked at her wondering how she would react.
There was a long pause before Jenny answered.
“ That’s not a bad idea. Let’s go out. I seriously could use some shopping. Anyways I have to buy new cutlery and new pans”, she winked at him. Thank god the oven is alright”.
The thought that she was going out gave a hint to Steve that perhaps she was trying to move on. They had their breakfast and started.
“ Jenny I hope its not too late and the shops aren’t closed. It’s almost Christmas and I seriously hope there are gifts left. Hey! I never gotta watch your series. How is it going? I bet it’s awful. You are not good at comedy as me? And anyways I know about you” and he looked at her with a sense of self-pride.
“By the way how much did you pay the guys for those awards you got? I am damn sure it will be a fake and it would have cost you a fortune. But still they look fake Jenny. Take them off your mantel piece ok” and he guffawed. She was spewing fire from her eyes enough to melt the ice in the city.
“tell me how much they cost anyways so I can buy one or two for you this Christmas. You have an Emmy and a golden globe, right I wont get you those . lets look out for other awards” and he went on and on.
Jenny stared at him and just yelled “Steve!!”. There was something in that voice that told him to stop.
“Jus’ kidding!! Jenny come on don’t get too serious. You gotta take life in its stride”, he apologized.
They waved for a cab and got in.

Finishing his show, Pete wished everyone a merry Christmas and a wonderful and happening New Year. He wanted to savor and treasure every moment in New York. He had invited his parents for Christmas and he knew, they too would have a blast.
Allan was constantly pestering Pete.
“Hey I must get the ring soon man. I know that we are meant for each other. I plan to ask her to marry me this New Year”, Allan was all too excited.
Allan was totally involved with Irene. He was a fire fighter and had literally seen the WTC tumble down, in front of his eyes and he had rescued quite a few lucky survivors. The way he described the nightmare was too touchy. Pete felt sorry for the people.
Irene had protested so much when he was assigned duty on ground zero. A lot of firefighters had laid down their lives in the effort to save many. She did not want him to just risk it. But Allan was insistent and he sat down and explained to her how important his job was and how it would make a difference in a lot of lives. Albeit Irene agreed to all this, she was still apprehensive. In Pete’s words, they were a perfect match .
Allan was also from Florida and Pete and Allan were from the same high school. When Pete wanted to pursue his career in New York, Allan was more than happy to help him out. Still he pointed out to Pete all the pros and cons of making it in the big city.
“It might be a tough challenge to come up as people now kinda fear to enter Manhattan. The nightmare still haunts everyone. New York has now become you could say a forbidden city. People practically dread the place. I just pray that everything returns to normal very soon”, he was telling Pete.
They left for shopping after Pete came back from the show. It was still two more days to Christmas. Pete was looking forward to spend the holidays with his family.
It was just a day to Christmas and Pete was just too happy to see his folks again. They went to watch miracle on 34th street and gazed at the empire state building. It was all lights for Christmas. They walked through Times Square and awed at Macy’s. It was indeed a wonderful Christmas for the Willard’s.

Steve helped Jenny put up the tree and they decorated it with patience and passion. It was a quiet Christmas for them. Steve had slept on the couch watching a movie and Jenny was up cleaning the apartment. Then she found a white envelope.
She opened it nonchalantly and it went like this.
“Jennifer I am writing this to tell you that Andy is still very much alive. He ran out on you, before the big day ‘coz he was never in love with you.”
It was not signed.
