Bob treated her like royalty all year. Christmas was no different. He had done a 12 days of Christmas theme this year, each day getting more extravagant gifts. The first day was flowers; the second day, teddy bears; the third day, chocolates; the fourth day, bath salts; the fifth, a personal massager, and so on.

            Yesterday he had gotten her diamond jewelry (matching necklace and earrings). She couldn’t imagine what the next twelfth day would bring.
