How my daughter and I became reindeer chapter 8

"Roxie." Dexter said. "Being tortured in Hell for nine months really messed with my mind…"

"Yeah, he went insane when he did all that stuff to us! He's not himself!" I added.

"I still won't forgive him!" she said. "He tried to kill us!"

“Roxie, remember that I always forgive your sins. So you must do the same.” God said.

Roxie looked at God. Then looked at Dexter and smiled.

“Of course I do daddy!” she laughed.

We all then hugged each other.

“So are you ready to go to Heaven now Dexter?” God asked.

“God...I’d like to stay on earth.” Dexter said. “I want another chance to be a loving husband and father....”

“Very well.” God said.

“Now, I’ve got to redeem myself.” Dexter said. And he snapped his fingers and changed into the traiditional image of Santa.

“I’ve got to deliver presents to the poor and sick!” he said. “Heather, Roxie, before I change you both back to normal will you help me pull my sleigh now to help me give presents?”

We both nodded.

So he hitched us both up and we took off through the sky.

This time, we enjoyed it. We went from house to house, delivering presents to the poor and sick.

“Can we make a quick stop first?” ROxie asked. We went to Roxie’s friend Matt’s house and she shined her nose at the window. He opened it and gasped.

“Rudolph?!” he cried.

“Merry christmas Matt.” she said smiling and flew off.

It was the best Christmas Eve ever! We flew to hundreds of homes in just a few minutes. And brought joy to everyone!

The next morning on Christmas, Roxie and I were both back to normal and Dexter had lost his magic powers. Everyone's memories had been modified to think Doug had never died. We were watching the news

“A number of homes claim that presents that they did NOT buy were found. The number grows and grows. Could Santa Claus, who we thought was a myth be real after all?”

We all grinned.

“Well that was one crazy christmas we had huh?” Dexter commented.

“Yeah...it’s too bad we didn’t get any presents though.” Roxie said.

“Roxie, we did get a great present: your daddy back!” I said.

“Actually, there’s more than just that!” Dexter said. He then showed us a sack.

Roxie gasped! “Every Super girl accessory ever made!” she cried.

“And for you babe.” he said handing me something.

I opened it up. IT was a diamond tiara and out came a recording.

To the best wife on earth. One who could not be more forgiving to her husband for what he did.”

I loved it!” I cried.

“I thought you would.” he said smiling.

A few days later, I came back to pitch an idea to Mr Workley

“Roxie the red nosed reindeer? Rudolph’s twin sister?” he said. “Interesting...”

he tried that for commercials...and what would you know, it was a huge success!”

“Heather, you’re hired again!” he proclaimed proudly. “Welcome back!”

I grinned. Soon Roxie the red nosed reindeer cahracter was a huge success! It gained merchandise, songs and everything! I was back on top! Soon, a man in hollywood asked if he could make an animated specia of Roxie the reindeer. Mr Workley said that he would have to ask me, I said yes. My daughter Roxie did the voice of...who else? I directed it and also did the voice of Roxie and Rudoloh’s mom, while DExter played teh father and Santa Claus.

Next year the special premiered and was an instant success!”

“As we were watching it on television that Christmas, my all my co workers and my boss Mr Workley all came over to my house to watch the special on television. All of Roxie’s friends came too.

“Great special!” Mr Workley said. “You’ve redeemed yourself Heather. I’m sorry I let you go initially? Will you forgive me?”

“You bet sir!” I said.

“Great special Roxie!” her friend Will said.

“Thank you.” Roxie blushed.

"What gave you the inspiration for this anyway?" a coworker asked.

"Oh…my daughter." I said smiling.
