Transcript

Every Hallmark Christmas movie. For Christmas it's just you know my hometown they they don't understand my city life. Well, the little town is the same as I remember. Finally made it home. Oh my gosh, who's calling me again? Hey, can I call you back? Okay. Honey, oh my gosh, welcome home. You'll be freezing out there. Come inside now. Christian, oh my gosh, I haven't seen you since high school. You jerk. That's because you never come back here anymore. Yeah, I mean, I just really care about my career these days and I just don't have time for things like Christmas. Sorry, my boss is calling me. Oh well, I'm doing a charity event at the children's hospital. You should come by. Yeah, maybe. So honey, when are you going to find a boyfriend? Mom, I don't have time for love. I have a big job. Okay, well you should at least go to that charity thing. Fine, if it'll get you off my back.
