“Your father does not know Santa.”
“Yes, he does. Santa’s name is Geoff.”
“Santa’s name is Santa. Or possibly Nicholas. Or maybe Kris. Anyway, it’s none of those things, because Santa isn’t real.”
Fortuna regarded him solemnly. “Where have I gone wrong with you?”
“What?” said Sylvain, blankly.
“Because if traveling with me has taught you anything at all, it should be that everything is real. Everything you can dream of. Including Santa Claus. You just have to know where to look.” She kissed him and took him to visit Santa Claus.
