Chapter 9

“To dream of Christmas while it is Spring or Summer means that you are subconsciously remembering some long-forgotten pleasant experience of your childhood. To dream of the Grinch means that you are subconsciously burying an unpleasant memory.”

Serenity motioned for Raphael to follow her into the kitchen once Darla had gotten Emma tucked away in the spare bedroom for the night. She knew by the worried look on the angel’s face that he thought she was about to go off on him again for not being there when Emma needed him. And though she was still angry over it, she knew yelling at Raphael wouldn’t change the events of the evening. But she had something more important to talk about.

“Tomorrow morning is Christmas.” Serenity rolled her eyes when he stood there and simply blinked at her. “As in there are usually presents under the tree from Santa for little girls and little boys.”

“Emma will not have presents at her aunt’s house, I’m sure,” Raphael said dully.

“Yes, I know. We’ve gotten her a few things ourselves, but we don’t want her to think that Santa has forgotten her, now do we?

“You desire for me to go and get her presents?”

“Ding, ding, ding, give the angel his prize,” Serenity said dryly. “Yes, we want you to get her presents.” She held out a list and some money to him but he only took the list.

“I do not need your money.”

Serenity’s brow scrunched up. “Are you sure? You do realize that stuff isn’t free. You can’t just say, hey, I’m an angel so give me what I want.”

This time Raphael rolled his eyes at her. It was such a human gesture that Serenity couldn’t help the huff of laughter.

“I have been on this earth much, much longer than you. I learned the concept of commerce and goods without any trouble, believe it or not.”

Serenity’s eyes widened. “Did you just use sarcasm? Wow, I’m impressed. It was a little stiff, but you’re making progress.”

“I didn’t realize I was trying to make progress.”

“Raphael, we all have stuff that we need to make some progress on. Now, as much as I know you like small talk, off with you. You’ve got shopping to do.”

“I do not like small talk,” Raphael told her with a slight crease in his forehead.

“And we digress.” She blew out breath. “I was being sarcastic, Raph; just go with it.”

He simply looked at her for a moment longer before disappearing.

“Where did he disappear to?” Darla asked as she walked into the kitchen looking more worried than Serenity had seen her in a long time.

“Okay first doesn’t it freak you out that a man who claims to be an angel just up and disappears from your kitchen? And second I sent him on a mission. He’s going to be Santa.”

Darla smiled. “That was good thinking. And you need to remember Serenity that some of us experience things in our life time that make us very aware of the unseen world around us. I think the Good Book puts it as entertaining angels unaware.
