Sprout and Cosmo had been dating for a few months and treated every holiday like it was their last—completely in love with one another.

When Christmas rolled around, Cosmo’s cousin, Ginger, came to visit. Being a gingerbread woman, she adored Christmas and had a calm, peaceful vibe. Ginger was also a talented baker.

However, you noticed Ginger acted differently around you than with everyone else. She would cling to your arm or give you short, possibly flirty waves. You didn’t think much of it, but Cosmo certainly did—and he wasn’t happy.

Three days before Christmas, you and Cosmo were wrapping presents together. Suddenly, Ginger joined in, sitting a bit too close to you. She started helping with the wrapping while Cosmo, visibly annoyed, moved closer to you. Before long, you found yourself squished between your boyfriend and his cousin.
