I Must Go Home - Best Short Inspirational Christmas Stories

             

He entered to the airport and joined to the line to the counter. The gleaming digital signs show planes to all around world. He knew his plane should around somewhere on that board so he didn’t search for it.

He kept staring at giant sign board that letters and numbers moving above receptionist. All of them together showed the date and time.” 23th December 2020 08:00”. He sighed and looked at his bag he was holding. Just 24 hours to see them.

He is nervous. What they will say? He never saw the baby. He only saw photos his wife sent. He always wanted to go home and see his baby. And his little princes Emma. He didn’t saw her almost two years. He wanted to go hug all of them and never leave them again.

He has felt guilty; Raising two kids all alone without him should very hard to her, Jane, his queen. But she never complained. She knew he should go to his job and it’s risky.

“Hello, How can I help you?” he came back to earth with that question. Without knowing he came to the receptionist. She smiled and asked again. ” Can I help you?”

 “Yes, I want to go to New York, "He said while looking at the small Christmas tree neat the large desk.

“I’m sorry mister. Didn’t you see the sign there? There is a bad snow storm in New York so all planes are cancelled since three days. You can't go there until we start again.”

Everything went upside down. He felt like everything is fallen. Two years worked hard on Navy and finally came home from warfront now he had to wait more days. His backpack suddenly felt heavy. His Christmas presents for Emma, Jane and little Alex was there.. He should go home before Christmas Eve.

"Is there any plane to ..............." He asked. She was looking at his face. She saw how his happy smile faded on her news. She know how hard not be on home on Christmas.

She looked at her computer. He looked at her face hopefully. Then she turned up her face. He knew what she is going to say on that sad face.

“I’m sorry. There aren’t any planes in 20 hours “He looked again at the giant clock and then he smiled sadly to her and said, “Alright. Thank you and happy Christmas.”

 He turned around and went outside from airport. It’s snow falling slowly. Why didn’t he check news before? He blamed himself. He was worried about them. Do they have enough food?   If storm kept there they do not have food. He thought.” I’m going somehow to see them before Christmas Eve.

No one on the street because terrible cold. He put the buttons of his jacket and started to walk.

He didn't understand what to do. He should be home this Christmas for his family. He wanted to surprise them. He came all along this far but now he was stuck here. He felt enormous sadness.

I should stay at the airport and tomorrow I can go to..................... But then I can't go home until 26. If storm kept exist it’s impossible to go New York. He thought.

Everything is calm and quiet. Streets were empty. Seemed like everyone already at homes. Every house on that street decorated with Christmas decorations. Two kids passed him running laughing. He remembered his kids again.

He kept walking without a goal but then he stopped. How anyone miss those giant ............. He stared a moment of wonder of this creation and without thinking he entered.

He stared to run. He had an idea about where the railway station was. He heard the loud horn of the train. Was he too late?

Snow was thick. It’s hard to run. But he managed to enter to the railway station finally. Train is still there. Thank god.

He bought a ticket and climbed up to the train.  As soon as he entered, doors were closed and train started to leave. He sat on a seat near a window. He took his presents for children to his lap. He was the only passenger on that entire train cart. He didn’t surprise. No one don’t need to go anywhere on Christmas. He looked at the beautiful but lazy view through the window.

Everything was pure white. It’s just 4 PM but darkness started to spread. He knew that train journey got another 14 valuable hours to arrive New York. But if he is right it’s better than plane. He can find a way home from.............  He silently thanked got to give this ride at least. And he prayed again to see his wife’s lovely face and children's warm before Christmas. ” I must go home”.  He believed god will help him to make it home before Christmas Eve. His eyes dimmed and he fallen to sleep.
