A Fate Filled Christmas (2013)
“Glimpsing some unfamiliar shadows, she drove her car into the garage, turned off the engine, then bundled up against the cold. A few steps later, she stood on the edge of the driveway, looking across a light blanket of snow. While beautiful, the white covering didn't hold her attention. Instead, a handful of plastic animals covered with blinking Christmas lights drew her entire focus.
Sure enough, a couple of polar bears stood with their rears to the house, facing the street. Right in front of them plastic penguins, complete with scarves and hats, ice skated around a pseudo-rink in time to the chime of Jingle Bells. Like a merry-go-round, the penguins, attached to metal bars, circled around and around.
The fact that she had instant holiday lawn decorations didn't bother her as much as the evidence that someone strolled up to their yard, took the time and energy to place the scene, and no one saw them. Or, if they did, no one bothered to call her and report it. Scary. Really scary.
Wit...h a shake of her head, she marched back into the garage, hit the button again to close the door, then headed into the kitchen.MoreLess
