I'm Dreaming Of Christmas

Robin Rance, 2020

Holly Winters wanted a white Christmas… My birthday was coming soon, and this year I would turn twenty-five on the twenty-fifth of December. I barely remembered being outside and watching the snow fall. I had the pictures on the internet and television to remind me. I knew how to surf, but it was my dream to go snow skiing. Soaring down the mountain next to a hunky ski instructor was the image that stuck in my head. So, this year I was trying to convince my parents to take us on a skiing trip to the mountains instead of our usual trip to the Bahamas. The possibilities were endless, and I would use my age and my name to shame them. "Mom, why did you name me Holly if you didn't want me to enjoy Christmas to the fullest?" **Nicholas Cringle was tired of the name jokes…**This year, the puns would be even worse. My great uncle Christopher died, leaving me a ski resort in the Rockies. I was grateful when I first learned of it. But my thoughts quickly went to, 'How much money could I make if I sold it?' I didn't ski, I knew nothing about running a resort, and I wasn't fond of the snow. In fact, I hated it. But my uncle put a stipulation in his will saying I would have to live at the resort for five years before I could sell the property, or Grand Flurry would go to my stuck up, younger cousin, Derk Poindexter. In five years, I would be thirty-five. Could I give up my winters on the beach for that long? It would be worth it in the long run. Who knows, I might fall in love with a ski bunny. Fat chance, but why not give it a try.
