Chapter 12: Children of the corn *cough* of the world
Lakeside , Illinois April 15th 1991
So the past few months have been slow going, but I'm making the best of the situation. I already gotten used to the beard only shaving it when I go to pick up Charlie to avoid having an awkward talk with Laura and Neal.
Meanwhile at work I have informed my boss and team that I will be taking a leave of absence for the foreseeable future at the recommendation of my doctor. It's better that way so I can focus on my health.
So far no change with the system. Every time I call it there is a message about it updating. But other than that, there are no other issues and everything is going alright.

"Sir, that will be $16.48" The cashier said
"Ok"
As I was counting out my change, I felt a tug on my coat and as I look down standing next to me was a young boy.
"Excuse me, but can I get a white teddy bear this year for Christmas?"
After he asks the question I was about to answer him when the cashier told me again the amount I owned.
"O... right. Here you go"
Once I finish paying I look back down but noticed that the boy was no longer next to me. As I leave the store thinking how weird that situation was, I see the boy again this time walking away holding the hand of his mother.
"strange..."

I'm just about to start my car, preparing to pick up Charlie from his school when I hear a knock on the window. Standing there was one of kids from the neighborhood staring a me. I decided to roll the window down to ask them a question.
"Yes?"
"Can I get a doll house for Christmas?"
"Sorry?"
"It doesn't need to be big it just needs enough space to fit the doll you got me last year"
"... right I'll look into it."
"thank you"
"Wait how did you- and you left. This is getting weird"

"Come on Charlie you got this"
Today was a big day for Charlie and his soccer team. They were playing for a spot in the semi-finals and I came to support him. As I continue to watch the game and shout words of encouragement, I suddenly felt a tap on my shoulder and as I turn around there was a group of children standing right behind me.
"... what's up guys?"
One of the little girls steps forward
"Hi we wanted to talk to you Santa"
"How did you know I was Santa?"
"Because you're Santa"
"Yes, but... you know what neverminded"
-ten minutes later-
"And what is your name little one?"
"James"
"what is it that you want for Christmas James?"
"I would like a teenage mutant ninja turtle action figure"
"O and do you have a favorite one?"
"Yes! I love Michelangelo! He likes pizza just like me!"
"That is amazing and don't worry it is possible to get you the turtle"
"Really? Thank you Santa"
"No problem kid alright who's next?"
"Scott what are you doing?"
Oh... Sh*t. I turn around and standing there is Laura and Neal and they look shocked.
"Hi guys I'm just selling some insurance"
