- Come on, back to grandma's again! I don't want to!
- Nastya, calm down! We're going to Grandma's for the whole vacation, and it's out of the question! You love grandma, don't you?
But Nastya didn't say anything, and silently went to her room to pack her things. No, she loved her grandmother, but she was almost fourteen, and she wanted to celebrate New Year's Eve in a special way.
For example, her roommate Masha was going to Thailand for the whole vacation, several other classmates were also going on trips, and another friend from another school, Anya, wasn't going anywhere, but they had bought her a completely white Christmas tree! As she packed her things, Nastya once again remembered this and sighed.
- They're all lucky. I'm just gonna be business as usual.
But what Nastya didn't know was that her mom was on the phone right now, and just with her grandmother.
- What's up, Xenia, how's Nastya?
- Not really, Mom. She's sad.
- Sad? Why? What's wrong?
- She won't tell me, but I can guess what's going on. You see, all her friends and acquaintances are going away for the vacations.
- What, all of them?
- Everyone except Anja. But I heard her parents bought her a white tree, so she'll have a special New Year's Eve.
- So, it turns out that only our Nastya will have nothing new?
- Yes - sighed mom, who actually understood Nastya.
- Don't worry, we'll fix it right away!
- You've always been a dreamer. Okay, Mom, bye-bye, kisses.
Oksana hung up the phone and thought to herself:
- What could she possibly come up with?
Oksana didn't think about why her mother said "we". She thought she meant her grandmother's constant companion, Barry, a shaggy Jack Russell terrier.
- Besides," Oksana remembered, "there are two cats living there now, Martin and Robin.
Indeed, my grandmother happened to hear about this couple living in a shelter. It happened at the beginning of the year. Now they were two huge, fluffy cats who, as Grandma liked to say, "were always teaching her about life". Nastya was familiar with them, but they had never met New Year's Eve together. That's what her grandmother decided to take advantage of.

- Hi, Nastya!
- Hi, Grandma! Oh, what is it? - Nastya took off her jacket and boots, walked into the room... and was dumbfounded, because the Christmas tree was hanging in the air! It was suspended from the ceiling!
- Here, I decided to hang it, Grandpa Saveliy helped me," explained my grandmother, "Otherwise, those jerks would have beaten it all up in no time. Thank you, by the way, for the idea!
- Thank you very much, Grandma! - replied Nastya and hugged her. - No one will ever have a New Year like this!
And indeed, all of Nastya's acquaintances celebrated the New Year in different ways, but no one had a flying Christmas tree. And this New Year became the happiest one for Nastya.
