Christmas Story- “Winter Snow”

“Winter Snow”




A teacher is speaking to her class.  She asks Billy who raises his hand, “What do you want to be when you grow up?”  Billy has been raising his hand and wants to tell the whole class what his dream has been for years and years since turning 3 years of age.  He says, “I want to be Santa Claus!”  From hearing this statement every kid in the classroom starts laughing at Billy.  The teacher stands in front of the classroom and has an embarrassed look on her face.

While Billy then walks out of his English class after the bell rings the kids start following him to his Spanish class like a mob.  Every kid from his English class wants to humiliate him.  Fire is in their eyes.  So, their evil fellowship of Billy gets so intense that Billy begins running to the cafeteria during nutrition break, and the school principal stops him and puts him in a time out.

Do the kids leave Billy alone?  No, they’re arrogant, they’re bullies.  A few kids start sitting next to Billy with mocking voices and teasing faces while some other children resume throwing rocks at the poor kid.  Fortunately, Billy is not hurt and the school principal lets him go.

The young kid gets up from the brick wall and heads over to Spanish class.  Students from his English class wait outside his Spanish class like vultures until Mr. Hugo tells them to leave.

As a kid, Billy tries to get along with the other kids.  But eventually rumors misrepresent him and everyone is talking about Billy’s wish to be Santa Claus.  “Santa isn’t real!”  “Who cares about Santa?”  “People don’t believe in Santa Claus.”  “Oh, my, GOD!”  Still, the poor kid continues taking his classes even while the other students steal his used books, kick his backpack, push him without any prior notice.  Groups of kids gather around with disgust in their faces: “Nobody believes in fairy tales, right?  Billy is such a dork.”

One day a gang of bullies decide to rob from Billy’s house.  Night comes, the bullies enter into his house on Christmas Day, when, suddenly in the living room they hear someone going down the chimney.  It’s Santa Claus!  The bullies roar and scream like little girls.  Saint Nick stands in front of them- a toy bag over the shoulder, a red and white suit, glasses with soot, and a big, giant whip in hand.  “Ho, ho!  Where are you going now?”  The whole gang runs out of Billy’s house.  Santa leaves a note on his parents’ lamp table explaining the robbery attempt and ensures the family Billy will be safe.


Winter comes in shining force.  Rumors go around about the whole ordeal in Billy’s house and children from his English class and other classes don’t wish to test things out anymore.  School begins again sometime in January, and, the kids find something shocking- Billy is there on the school campus in Santa’s sleigh and waves to the other students to come over for their presents.  Everybody gets a box.  The box for each student is filled with candy, marbles, and gift cards.  People on the whole school campus rejoice in their slumber and swear, never again, to make fun of anybody’s wish to be Santa Claus.
