A deal is a deal

Loren over at I Saw Lightening Fall hosts a Christmas Ghost Story telling event every Christmas, it’s something I look forward to all year. Writers get 100 words, no more, no less! There’s little I like more than a creepy Christmas!

Here’s  my contribution  to the fun, hope it gives you a chill!

 

“What am I doing here?”

“Spending eternity.”

“But, why here?”

“You made a deal.”

“I don’t  understand! I lived a good life, went to church, prayed, gave to the poor, I was a good man!”

“Perhaps. But a deal is a deal.”

“I would never make a deal with the likes of you!”

“Maybe I made a mistake. Hmm,  ah, there it is, December 24, 1952. ‘Dear Santa, I will do anything for a GI Joe.’ Did Santa deliver?”

“What does Santa have to do with it?”

‘Santa, Satan, what’s a letter here or there have to do with anything. Welcome home.”
