[Secret Santa: Newt P]
[Waiting for Newt P is an envelope, with his name written neatly on the outside. Within are three things: a menu for a French restaurant in the Capital that specializes in southern French cuisine, has impossibly long waits for reservations and has a receipt stapled to the back that indicates that the dinner is paid for in full. The second item is a key-card, in a paper envelope for a small but charming hotel in the city center that has views of the light display put up in the Capital. The third item is a telephone number and a name written in full (if the recipient wishes to search for said individual online) and 'pick-up time, five thirty' written below. A call to said individual who works for one of the main childcare places in the Capital and has a side-gig in overnight sitting would tell you that an overnight sit has been paid for in full and reviews of her care are publicly available online.
Alongside the envelope is wrapped up a very old looking book on botany, the flora and fauna of the city and the town and its surrounds. The bookmark is a slab of chocolate. The piece of paper tucked into the first page reads, 'you may already have read this, but what's a Santa to do?']
