[ And here is where the wires get crossed. It's Santa who brings secret gifts — not everyone else. But Alberto doesn't connect those dots. Which, in a few weeks, will become apparent, when he secretly leaves Christmas gifts in all his friends' houses while visiting on Christmas Eve... He's got the spirit, at least.
But he's frankly a bit confused about Santa as a figure. He doesn't know what a reindeer is. He doesn't ask. He glances aside skeptically, trying to wrap his head around this. ]
So... What if you don't have a chimney?
[ He obviously casts his gaze around the room to indicate how small and very much chimney-less it is. He only knows what a chimney is because he once watched the Gisnep film Mary Pippins with Luisa... So he's imagining a very chim-chimeny-chim-chim-chiroo scene here... ]
Erm, that is the one part my coworkers seem to have forgotten to tell me. No one has told me about it that much so I have to make up some possible scenarios if he does run into that problem.
My best guess would be that he might secretly sneak from the gardens by hopping over fences or entering from the gates. Or he could have used the emergency exits in buildings where backyard gardens are not commonplace.
Um yeah, that is entirely possible too. He might have a stash of ropes in his sled on hand to get to the higher levels. That man must have a lot of contingency plans to send gifts to people living in different types of housing.
[ Get it, Isabela? I-It's you? It's a wry joke, but Alberto would totally describe her the same way. She and Luisa have always seemed very on-the-ball to him. Then again, he also considers Pepa very put-together, so his lens may be a bit off-kilter... All the same: Santa sounds creepy, but Isabela has his respect. ]
(Yes Isabela is totally aware of that joke very well but hearing it just makes her having a hearty laugh. Santa being just as crazy like her, that does not sound too far from the truth if she is being honest.
Imagine how much effort this old bearded magical man must have put into his prep work for the holidays including creating multiple plans to get into different types of homes.)
Ppffftt! Why of course, that sure does sound like a certain somebody obviously.
