I was beginning to fall asleep when i heard a thud downstairs. I hesitated on checking it out but my curiosity took over. Before i knew it, i was walking with a flashlight in my freezing hand, socks on my frostbitten toes.
It's snowing outside! I thought. I love the snow. Tender little things.
My footsteps sent a hollow sound throughout the living room. Thud, thud, thud, thud....
Step by step. If it was an intruder, he must've heard me by now. But no one was in sight. I swung the flashlight around the living room for a last attempt on catching someone, or something that doesn't belong, then finally heading to the kitchen for a glass of milk.
While i drank. I heard a deep chortle behind me. A distant sound. Echoing......
Then rustles of the tree leaves in the living room. Ornaments shake. Clinging against each other, and some fell, they bounce on the beige carpet. Rolling, rolling, rolling.. towards me. Bumps on the tip of my toes then halts.
In panic, I grabbed the flashlight from where I left it, a desperate attempt to click it on. It gave in at first, but then faded out. I cursed under my breath. A figure was walking into the kitchen....
A tall figure.... A man..
Big round belly......
Carrying a huge sack.....
And a large hat settled on his head......
He said......
"Can i have some cookies and milk please? I've been working all night!"
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
I know, it's a late wishing. I'm always late. Anyways, hope you guys enjoyed your Christmas. I enjoyed mine.. Cause nobody woke me up from my more-than-12-hours-sleep.
party. (:
