All Chapters of Nollick Ghennal: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

It had been half an hour since Melanie and Lydia left, the former claiming to have an idea regarding their broken decorations."They can't be that much longer." Sapphire said, tossing her mug between her hands on the table, hot chocolate long finished as they waited in the kitchen.Holly had taken a red flower from the vase, Poinsettia, and was playing with it, she heaved a bored sigh and, flower still in hand, took the mugs to the sink."You're right!" the blonde said suddenly, turning toward the living room when she was done rinsing the mugs. "Let's get set up, in case anything else is broke."Sapphire followed her sister and they started going through the box; putting tinsel, baubles and other stuff into piles on the couch.Sapphire pulled out a small bell with a red bow on top, she went to put it with the other bells, when she noticed this one, unlike the others, had metal inside.She gave it a small jingle, giggling like a child when the sound rang throughout the room, Holly chuc

"Holly! I'm back!" Sapphire called as she stepped into the house.There was no response other than the sound of Christmas music, and the smell of homemade treats.Sapphire poked her head in the kitchen, the table was covered in trays of mince pies, gingerbread men, Christmas pudding, and Holly was in the middle of taking bunloaves out of the oven."Hi Saph," Holly greeted as she put the fruit loaves on the side and took off her oven mitts.It always amazed Sapphire how Holly could bake so much in just a few hours. She used to think Holly used magic, but the blonde insisted she didn't."Did you remember the icing?" Holly asked, hands on hips as she surveyed her hard work."Of course." Sapphire said, holding up her bag. "I wouldn't forget the only thing you let me do."Every year she'd come home to find Holly having finished all the baking, they agreed Sapphire would get to do the decorating, though their mother hadn't approved since Sapphire didn't leave the table until everything was

Trisha shivered as she left school, Emilie giving her a worried look."It's so cold!" Trisha complained, rubbing her arms despite the gloves and numerous layers."We'll be at Holly's house soon." Emilie tried to reassure, but the red head wasn't listening, instead staring at the darkening clouds."It's getting dark faster," Emilie said. "We should hurry.""Wait," Trisha said, pointing at the sky where small white flakes were falling. "It's snowing..."Emilie took her pink glove off and held her hand out, drifting snow gathered and grew to form a large snowflake, which she gave to Trisha."Oh! Uh, th-thanks." Trisha said after spending a moment just staring in awe. "I want to show everyone, before it melts." she announced suddenly, running off to the blonde's house.Emilie chuckled and followed.--------"Look Holly, it's snowing." Melanie pointed out.The two had been needed by their teachers and decided to walk home together."Trisha loves snow, she always talks about wanting to pres

Holly, Melanie and Lydia were getting the bus, none of them liked buses, preferring to either walk or use magic as a form of travel.Today they didn't have a choice as they went to the airport; not exactly in walking distance.They were going to pick up Ann, Lydia and Melanie's best friend before she moved to Ireland."What's she like?" Holly asked, being the only one of the three to have never officially met Ann."Like you." Lydia answered vaguely.Melanie burst out laughing."She's blonde," Melanie corrected.Holly blinked in confusion."She used to be in our class," Lydia said. "She always had her hair in a bun.""I don't know." Holly shrugged, then paused. "Wait, you were the popular girl, I saw a blonde girl around you a lot, at least before you and Lydia met.""We met when we were little," Melanie giggled. "We're cousins."Holly just waved her off."We're here." Lydia said.Holly and Melanie stood up, the latter almost falling due to the sudden stop."Thanks." Melanie waved to t

Holly and Lydia were sat together in a small cafe; It was narrow with about ten tables per side, in two long lines."Ann took me to Santa's Grotto yesterday." Holly said while stirring her tea, letting go and watching the plastic spoon spin in the cup."I know," Lydia chuckled, putting ketchup on her cheesy toastie, Holly never liked the idea and just kept her toastie plain."Ann took Melanie last year, when she visited in Ireland," Lydia shrugged. "She only realised the next day Santa was her ex.""Melanie has a boyfriend?!" Holly cried.Lydia raised an eyebrow."Had." she corrected, biting into her toast and getting covered in ketchup.Holly gave her a napkin."He didn't want a long distance relationship when we moved, then he started dating a girl from our old school." Lydia sighed. "Everyone thought him and Mel would get married someday.""She loved him?" Holly asked, sipping her tea."Still does." Lydia smiled sadly."How could he pull off being Santa?" Holly asked."He's one of
