She didn't know why she had bothered in the first place. It happened so often to her now...She should have just, stopped trying. Carrie slowly munched on a cracker, as she sat alone at the table, staring at the mound of food she'd bought for her Christmas party. A Christmas party where no one had shown up. She slumped further in her chair. Pointless. It was always pointless. But she'd hoped at least one other would show up. Usually someone did. But this year? Not a soul. No one cared for her. No one wanted her presents, no one wanted her food. No one wanted...to be around her. She pushed away from the table, moving to the presents wrapped under the tree. "Merry Christmas to me." She whispered, kneeling down to grab the first present. There was no point in letting it all go to waste, even if she had to celebrate alone.
