A Christmas Tale. Part 1


A big loud noise woke me up
So i got out of bed to see what it was
I opened the door
And looked down through the railing
My mom was dancing to the Christmas songs playing
I saw her talking to someone sitting in the chair rocking
I can only barely see a leg and a arm in red clothing
She was smiling and laughing smoking cigars and drinking straight from the bottle using not even a glass
She would get so mad if I ever tried to do that
The person in the chair was starting to get up
Oh my God! I said to myself," could this be true?"
It can't be
My jaw dropped
I'm pretty sure that what my gut was telling me all along
The person in my house
This guy was Santa clause
I quickly went back to my room
quietly closed my bedroom door
I had all the stuffed animals at the foot of the bed
I was so excited, I was pacing back and forth across the floor
I started to explain to the animals what just happen
But then I got all giggles from the excitement and then just started laughing
our lives now we're going to change
Man... when I get back to school
I'm going to be famous on the playground
Every Kid will know my name
I started telling stories that weren't even yet true
But there I was helping out Santa and the rest of the Christmas crew
I told it so well I believed it myself
Being stuffed from all the cookies and milk
Working next to the big guy.
I only wanted one thing from him
I would like to have a present under every tree for each kid
When they woke up Christmas day
They would have at least one gift to open and not feel ashamed
As I was telling my stories
I looked at all the animals
They were absolutely listening to my every word
They really were paying attention
Then all of a sudden I asked myself a question
I can't believe I forgot the situation
Mrs. Clause where was she all this time
Are they split up or maybe divorced
I could go down there right now
Grab my he-man body shield and light sabor with sound and take him down with brut force
But I couldn't do that because of my mom obviously
I don't think she needs to see how myself and 7 stuffed animals took down a world known celebrity
I need to find the answer by tomorrow night
after tomorrow that guy will get in his sleigh and ride out of sight
But man did my mind take over
Maybe he's seeing my mom on the side
Awe heck no I can't let this slide
I started to get really angry
I was getting very upset
And I don't even know what is going on
Maybe just relax a sec
I was so mad I stormed out of my room
And down the stairs
To give that man a piece of my mind
I got to the bottom of the steps
Then I started thinking about the problems
That might take place
All one at a time
Whoa there buddy, let's think about this
I might do something I might regret
If I say something now, I could forever get a stocking of coal
If I wait really who's gonna know
So what if I waited just until the holidays were done
At least I could have a last Christmas
At least this one
So I went back up the stairs and started to rethink
What if I just waited a few more days
What harm could it do
So I laid down in my bed and went to sleep
I woke up to the smell of bacon and the sun shinning bright in my eyes
I quickly but calmly went down the stairs to see if he was anywhere inside
I jumped up on the bar stool up at the kitchen counter
Mom says merry Christmas young man
Merry Christmas I replied back to her
She made me my favorite breakfast
Happy face pancakes with eggs and bacon
When I got done eating
Mom says I forgot to tell you something
Santa Clause Was here last night
dropped off your gift.
It's under the tree
I jumped down from the stool
I ran over to the tree very quickly. It was pretty big I'd say.
I shook it and nothing, it was pretty heavy.
So decided to tear it open.
