We’ve all experienced the occasional family drama during the holidays, but this tale takes the (fruit)cake! Our story’s hero, let’s call him ‘Santa’s Little Helper’, and his girlfriend Sarah decided to host a Christmas get-together at their apartment. With friends, family, and gift exchanges, it was shaping up to be a jolly good time. But when his sister and her friend Lana (a blast from Santa’s not-so-pleasant past) show up, the Christmas cheer quickly turns into a holiday horror!

Holiday Havoc: Was Santa’s Little Helper Too Harsh?
In the wake of the Christmas chaos, our hero is left questioning his actions. Was he too harsh in booting his sister and Lana from the party? His parents certainly think so, citing Lana’s recent family loss as a reason for leniency. But after Lana’s audacious suggestion about naming his unborn child and her unending grudge, Santa’s Little Helper had had enough. He wanted a peaceful holiday gathering, not a drama-filled fiasco. So, was he in the wrong, or was he justified in his actions? Let’s see what the internet thinks of this festive fiasco…
