JAMIE
Everything was ready except for the Santa claus, the event planner had assured me they were coming soon.
My elder brothers Joe and Andrew were both married. Though Andy isn't any more after he got divorced a year ago they do share custody of thier son Wills. Who was a replica of Andy, and could be naughty sometimes. Then Joe and his beautiful Wife Marie had two girls Micky who was six and Poppy who is three, she is my favorite and the most adorable.
Every Christmas we choose one of us to spend Christmas at the house together and it was my turn to host them after to Christmas, so I wanted it to memorable for the kids.
The Santa claus group arrive and went to arrange their custume and set up.
They arrived shortly, seven yr old wills ran to him first. "Uncle Jamie" Micky shouted from behind wills as she ran towards me for a hug.
I hugged them.
"emie" little poppy called feeling left she calls me emie and I love it.
"come here my princess" I said enveloping her into my arms and smiling.
"The decorations are so beautiful uncle" Micky commented
"Yea had made for you guys"
"It's lovely" Marie said
"How's my favorite wifey doing? I asked teasingly,
" Pregnant and numb"she replied in smiles
"No way" Me and Andy said in unison
"Yes way"Joe replied smiling
" Congratulations bro, another baby on the way" Andy hugged Joe so did I.
The kids ran through the house as we talked in the living room about life and work.
"I met Claire, she ain't happy Jamie, 'Joe stated
" I don't care, let's not talk about it not in the mood "

I had went to the agency for the Santa actor, I had a whole speech planned for the interview but it seems i didn't need it, I was hired instantly cause I was the only one that applied the rest were men. I got some groceries wanted to bake a small cake at home, I had fun baking with Gina. The cake turned out fine and we had a great time. Took a long nap and woke up to message from the Agency team leader Mrs Edna
I had a gig this evening, I got up took a quick shower and dressed up.
Mom was Making dinner in the kitchen,
"isnt it too early for dinner mom, it's 5pm"

"Okay, I have work, bye love you"
"Have fun at work baby, if it's too late don't come back" she said
"Alright, make sure to take your meds"
"okay baby"
I met the whole crew, there were shaw and Ethel as elfs, thier costume were a master piece. I saw the custume room, also met Mrs ednas girls Midow and Norma, They were practically dolls. We took the agency bus to the private party in which I heard rumors that he was very rich and unmarried. I, Ethel and shaw, the costume assistant Lios, a very fine lad and Edna girls as supervisors.
"supervisors! My ass, they are trying to shag the rich client" Ethel said staring daggers at the excited girls who were talking selfies.
"Thier so fake that I want to vomit" Shaw added.
I looked at at everyone then I stared out the window till we got there.
"Oh my, oh my! Ethel exclaimed"its my dreame house, shaw simple and elegance that gives luxury" she added we got off the bus and a woman who is the party planner came to escorts us inside. I kept admiring the house trying to master the details
The air hummed with the quiet warmth of a late autumn evening, the house stood, a graceful testament to Mediterranean Revival elegance, its clean, stucco walls a brilliant canvas against the emerald sweep of the lawn.
The house possessed a striking symmetry. Two stories high, its main body was anchored by a bold, dark trim that framed the windows and doors, creating a sharp, modern contrast against the pale walls.
My eyes were drawn first to the entrance, set back slightly in a central alcove. A sleek, modern black-framed glass door offered a glimpse into the cool, shadowed interior. This central axis was flanked on the upper floor by twin Juliet balconies, their wrought-iron railings delicate yet strong, mirroring the dark frames of the large windows below. These windows, wide and multi-paned, suggested sunlit rooms within, offering views out onto the tranquil, tree-lined street.
A gently curving stone pathway cut a clean line through the perfect carpet of green, leading the gaze directly to the front door. The landscaping was meticulously manicured, with low, dense hedges forming a crisp border that separated the wilder, ancient trees—whose yellowing leaves kissed the roofline—from the formal beauty of the estate. It was a house that whispered of quiet luxury, timeless design, and stories waiting to unfold behind the welcoming glow of its glass entrance.
"stop ogling at the house and enter, the guest will soon arrive" the planner hurried us.
The interior design was a masterpiece it was clearly that the owner was rich and liked his house simply elegant.
We were ushered into what seem liked a big Room, but we'll decorated and a Christmas tree at the center, it was designed like some Christmas village with little huts, stalls with toys besides the tree was a big hut which I believed was for me the Santa and a lot of presents.
"Who is this man? I wondered.
" Time to dress up" Sarah said and we went to change while the Dolls were going Live in a corner, "Some supervisors" I heard Sarah say quietly.
Sarah finished dressing me up and stared at me in satisfaction. She had to add material to the ball to make the Santa's protruding belle smooth. The kids came in they loved the surprised they took pictures with Santa me and I gave them gifts randomly and somehow it turned out well.
The Dolls were no were inside with us for a
Long time, I got out of the costume so did Ethel and Shaw who played elves. "I heard the girls has been talking to the Host"
Ethel said
"How did you get information we were here the whole time with the kids" Shaw asked
"I heard from Sarah, I can't wait to actually see him too, who knows he might f**k me for the night" she continues
"Buy some dignity Et" shaw said with a disgusting look on his face.
"Don't need it darling" she chuckled.
We met up with our so called supervisors at the living room talking with some other people who seemed friendly.
I recognized the handsome man with the actress the other night he was looking dashing and majestic sitting on the cushion relaxed talking to a Woman who must be the girls mother cause they had her eyes.
"We're done" sarah announced to the dolls.
"oh okay, ermm this is our crew, they amazing" Midow one of the dolls said with her big fake smiles.
"The kids loved them, thank you for the effort" He thanked us
"it's our job sir" Ethel spoke first
"We have to go now, it's pretty late" Sarah had to remind the Dolls who didn't seem like they were leaving any time soon.
Heard from Ethel she was a single mother and she had to go get her son from her neighbor.
"okay.....
" Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggghhhhh!!! We heard someone screamed.
Stay tuned....
