CHAPTER 1

Nicole

Christmas Eve

I’m not feeling the holiday spirit this year.

Budget cuts due to inflation concerns.

If I hear those words one more time, I’m going to scream!

I deserve a medal for making it through the week without stabbing my boss in the eye with his favorite pen.

Now I just want to get drunk and eat pizza.

I know it could have been worse, but this year sucked. And if that’s not bad enough, my favorite pizza place closed early for Christmas Eve.

Okay. No big deal. I’ll just run into WaltmoreGoods, a gourmet grocery store and supercenter located near my apartment building. Then I’ll grab a frozen pizza for dinner and head home to rest. Oh, and some wine. I can’t forget that. Wine is my comfort food.

Ugh. What a day it’s been. Right now, customers are not only shopping for Christmas, but also because of the snowstorm that’s coming. I swear after I finish this grocery run, I’m going straight home. I can’t wait to watch my favorite Christmas movie: Gremlins. And so what if it’s not really a Christmas movie? Gizmo from the movie Gremlins is all the company I need right now.

Who cares that I don’t have any family to visit for the holidays? I don’t even like receiving presents or doing any Christmas stuff anyway. That is, unless it’s for something important...like handing out toys to sick children and the charity work that I do through my job. Then I don’t mind at all.

Take, for example, this evening. I just got off work, hence the Santa’s Helper costume that I’m wearing today. Every Christmas Eve, my coworkers and I deliver toys to Montefiore Children’s Hospital. It’s really the highlight of my December, especially because I love making so many kids smile.

The charitable company that I work for has been bringing Christmas cheer to sick children for the last ten years. But unfortunately, we just got some bad news: the company is facing funding cuts. And sadly, that means that this will be our last year doing our Annual Christmas Toy Giveaway.

This is beyond frustrating. Why cut the children’s program in order to fund frivolous expenditures? None of this makes any sense. The children’s hospital is counting on us to provide our services and our resources to the community. Did no one think this through? Grrr! I bet my boss was thrilled and signed off on everything with his stupid favorite pen.

I’m so angry at the injustice of it all.

With a frustrated huff, I quickly park my car and jump out. Then I run into WaltmoreGoods like I’m about to rob the place. I probably look crazy right now, but it’s all in a day’s work. Sure my hair’s a bird’s nest, and yes, I’m fully aware of the rip in my tights. But seriously, who cares? It’s not a damn fashion show, it’s a grocery store. Plus, there’s nowhere else open on Christmas Eve.

Excuse me ma’am? a cashier calls out to me. We’re closing in fifteen minutes.

Okay, I’ll be fast. Box wine and frozen pizza? I blurt out,
