The Proof of the Red Suit. AI-Generated.
No one believed Oliver. Seven years old, with crooked glasses, a cowlick that defied gravity, and a brain that made even his science teacher pause mid-sentence, Oliver knew things other kids didn’t.

But no matter how many equations he got right or how many inventions he built from spare clock parts, no one—especially not the adults—believed him about Santa.
