In London in the 19th lived Ebenezer Scrooge. Who was an accountant, he loved his job and worked a lot. He wrote down amounts of money in his account books, that is why he was rich. He lived with his family: wife and his two children. Also he had one nephew- Fred. He had his own big family. In Spite of he had a family he did not like people, had no friends. Nobody visited his family when he was at home. He loved money. He did not care about poor people and he was not a giving person.

Scrooge Ebenezer did not love festivals and never celebrated with his family, on these days he always work in his office even on Christmas day, while his family celebrate. They decorated a fir-tree, made dishes, laid the table, and gave presents to each other.

As we known Christmas night is magic time. When scrooge went to the bed he saw a dream. Marley’s spirit came and took Scrooge for travelling in the future century. Scrooge saw modern life. There were Social networks, people could make friends with it, people have to work in a team, they were making presentation in front of an audience. There are also training in works in a big office together, they have to have close relationship with each other, they have a tradition -they play “Secret Santa”, and if you want to be a good Santa, you should be extrovert.

While Scrooge woke up he realized that he should be more kind, friendly, must be caring and giving person. After that he decided to meet New Year with his family, he had a desire that human should be more reliable for him than money.

Scrooge usually celebrated holidays alone and he thought that it was great. He didn’t have any friends because his only best friend passed away. He was celebrating Christmas with no one. Scrooge used to go shopping before Christmas. He was buying a turkey, some meals and some products. He didn’t have a Christmas tree because he didn’t want to spend any money on it. How can anyone imagine Christmas without a Christmas tree, but it was his character not to spend much money. He had many problems one of his problems was that he didn’t have a washing machine and he was washing his laundry with his hands. Also he had old money from the last century and he didn’t know how to change it in the bank because he had no idea where the bank was. He couldn’t solve his problems. He was shy to ask someone where the bank was that why he couldn’t buy the washing machine. One day he decided to change his mood. He went out to ask people where the bank was people told him where the bank was. He went to the bank and changed old money to new. Then he went to buy some presents and Christmas tree. He also bought a washing machine. He washed his laundry, he cleaned his house, he picked up trash from his room and he went to decorate the Christmas tree. After that he took the presents to people scrooge hurt. After that he came home really tired he went to bed to sleep but he heard knocking he opened the door and saw his friends Scrooge took presents too and he was happy to spend Christmas with his friends

Christine and Raul got married. They had 2 children named Mary and Betty. They loved spending Christmas together and loved spending time with their family. Christine backed and cleaned the house Raul and the kids decorated the Christmas tree. It was like an unwritten rule for them to do this. Before one of the Christmas nights, Raul told Christine something.

-Honey, we don’t have enough money this year to buy presents for Mary and Betty. They will both get so disappointed if they won’t get presents but what can we do?

– I don’t know Raul but I am sure we can’t afford to buy gifts. We barely pay off the rent.

Meanwhile the girls were listening to them. They both didn’t believe in Santa but this year they gave it a try. They wrote letters to Santa and the next day they took the letters to the mail. Santa wasn’t happy this Christmas too. We all know that he has 9 reindeers. One of them got lost while taking training for flying. Its name was Comet. Comet was one of the most magical reindeers. Santa was very worried about Comet his health and about how he would fly around the whole world with 1 reindeer missing.

-Santa, I don’t think that this year you will be able to give presents to every child. Said Miss Claus. Santa was in disbelief. He didn’t know what to do but Betty and Mary weren’t doing well too. They were both walking down the street and saw something magical. A reindeer was flying around and making loud noises. When the reindeer saw the girls, it flew down. At first, they both were scared but then Mary got brave and went a few steps close to the reindeer.  Mary read the name on the collar.

-Comet… wow such a pretty name. I wonder where’s your owner Comet.

-Mary leaves him alone I don’t think we can find his owner in this huge city.

Betty didn’t want to help Comet she was already mad because she wouldn’t get a gift for Christmas. But her kindness and Mary’s puppy eyes got her to say yes. It was Comet’s first night in the other place then North Pole. The next day when Comet woke up it started yelling. Girls ran towards it. Comet was running around the circles like crazy. Mary was a bookworm and she decided to go to the local library. She read a few old books there about mythical creatures. The most shocking thing about reindeers was that they would lose their power to fly after 48 hours without Santa’s magic. Betty and Mary got worried right away and started thinking about what they could do. After a few hours of thinking Betty got a very dangerous but only idea.

-MARY! What if we sit on the comet and he will take us to the North Pole!

-Well, that’s the most stupid idea I have ever heard and if he can fly, he would’ve gone back to the North Pole.

– He is always under human discipline maybe he needs humans to fly.

 They sat on the Comet and waited for the worst. Fortunately, Comet flew high up in the sky. Girls fell asleep but soon enough they woke up. They were both freezing cold. Santa woke them up. In his workshop.

-Hello kids! I must thank you for bringing my reindeer’s Comet back. I can’t be more thankful to you, so I decided to make your wishes come true a little earlier. Mary, you wished for your parents to get a job so just like you wished your parents got hired in a shop. Betty, you wished that all presents that your family wished for would come true and you got what you wished for. And again, thank you for being so kind and respectful.

Oh Christmas is the most exciting time of the year. Every kid enjoys it and embraces it. They sing and dance but still there was someone who did not even care. He was Scrooge. He absolutely hated Christmas. His story didn’t melt his heart for long. He still didn’t care about people, he made sure that everyone had a bad Christmas.

One day he decided to take all the presents away as he always wanted all the presents for himself. He started stealing presents. One of the houses he decided to rob, it was a dark wooden house. Inside there were socks hanging by the fireplace, he started stealing all the presents that he found in the socks. While he was picking them up he saw something strange, it looked round and in the middle there was a red shiny button. Scrooge could not resist and he pushed the button.

It was a teleporter and he got teleported in the 20th century exactly on Christmas day. He looked through a window and saw a young kid unwrapping his present. He did not see the device right next to him. Scrooge saw that Christmas wasn’t about the presents or the tree, it was about family, and he realized that he could not ruin Christmas even if he wanted to have lots of presents. 

As he was leaving he saw the device and he picked it up and went back to his time and he brought back all the presents to the kids. He liked to see all the kids smile. When he went back home he felt a warm feeling inside which made him very happy. “It will last forever” he thought “there is no end of Christmas joy.” After that he was nice to everyone and Christmas became his favourite holiday again.
