Holiday Memoir
It Christmas in 1999 and my mother had been celebrating the holiday with her family. She left her sister's house to drive to Malibu to see some friends. When she was about to pass the Santa Monica Pier she stopped at a red light next to a silver convertible with a big package in the back. She drove on and had to stop again for two more lights and ended up being next to the same car. They both rolled down their window at the same time and said Merry Christmas to each other. My dad was also in the way to visit some friends however, he told her to pull over and asked her her out to get some coffee. They went to get a drink and decided to go to a movie later that day. My mom thought he wouldn't show up to the movie because they were basically complete strangers and they have never really met before. He did and they had a very memorable Christmas.
