The Miracle On 34th Street
“7 Days To Christmas "How's business, pops?" Kriss Kringle's smile faded. It had been a busy, jolly day at Santa's Workshop.
The last person he expected to see was Tony Falacchi.
But Falacchi was at the head of the line, among all the children, leering. His chin was unshaven, his clothes ragged.
"Sir," Denice said, "this is for children. Could you please step aside?" Tony turned around to face the waiting line of kids. "That guy up there ain't the real Santa Claus," he announced. "He don't live ...at the North Pole. He lives in a nursing home on West 114th Street. He's a fake!" Kriss Kringle was boiling. He started to rise. Denice quickly brought over the next kid in line, a little boy.
"Merry Christmas," Tony said with a cackle. He barged back through the line, elbowing his way past the children.
The little boy climbed into Kringle's lap. He looked up in awe and said, "You live on my street!" Kringle had cooled down by the end of the day. He left Cole's, tired but happy, and began walking home.MoreLess
