This is for RM Stockton's Haunted Christmas Prompt. Here is the link if you would like to check it out! Callie just turned 16 this year, and Christmas was on its way soon. Her mom took her to the mall for some Christmas shopping for their friend's and family just like they did every year.

Waste Disposal: A Love Story. Top Story - December 2023.
A little tale for the Hallmark crew: A long time ago…in a suburb far, far away… Stella could not help herself. All these years later, and here she was, back in the hometown that she promised herself she would not return to unless some special force pushed her in this direction. But here she was, guiding her SUV through the narrow streets of snow, slush and new homes. Well, new-ish homes… She noted that the field where she played soccer was now all mansions and they had built a parking lot and a small jungle gym that she would have loved as a kid. So unfair, she thought, but there was nothing she could do about that.
