"I know, but don't you think this time of year should be spent with family and taking it easy?" Mrs. Noble asked, not paying attention as she grabbed a cookie that looked like Minda.

"I agree but Minda's not the type to just relax." Jess said.

"She's more like Missy then? Always busy no matter what?" She asked, biting into the cookie.

'Well that's not true. Truth is, Missy becomes lazy and easily manipulated if she eats sweets on Christmas Eve or Christmas day." Jess said.

"Oh? Any idea how she came to be like that?" Mrs. Noble asked, taking another bite of the cookie. "Can't say. It's just the way she is." Jess shrugged.

"Its true. She's been like that since the day she was born. Its likely some freak thing that happens. That girl has picked up multiple curses during her life time." Mrs. Claus said.

"Oh? How come she hasn't gone about breaking them?" Mrs. Noble asked. "It's not that simple." Mrs. Clause said, wiping her hands on her apron as she walked over to the counter.

"Most of those curses are almost impossible to break." Mrs. Claus said. "However they all have conditions needed to activate each one."

"Think Minda could have picked up such a curse herself?" Mrs. Noble asked. "Or that one of Missy's somehow spread to her as well?"

"No, the curses shouldn't be contagious." Mrs. Claus said.

"And I doubt Minda picked up a curse on her own. Otherwise Bob, the kids, me, Roxy, or others would have ended up cursed as well." Jess said. "Why would you think her fattening up was some kind of curse?" She asked. "Well before marrying Bob she'd only ever put so much weight on once. That Christmas her father and I got snowed in out of town and she had to spend the holiday with you and your family." Mrs. Noble said, reaching into her cleavage and pulling out a few photos from when Minda and Jess were kids.

"Oh yeah. I remember that." Jess said.

"Minda was so devastated that you two wouldn't be there for Christmas. She cried for hours after that call. So mom went about making some of her favorite foods for dinner. Told her we wouldn't eat an actual Christmas dinner until you two had made it home." Jess said, smiling as she looked at a rather plump Minda blushing while Jess was putting an elf hat on her.

"She ate so much I thought she'd pop." Jess said.

"Yeah. I wish we could have been home for Christmas, but there was no way to fly or drive home in that blizzard." Mrs. Noble said.
