FAITH OF A MARCEL ON CHRISTMAS DAY BY: J. M. BALLINGER (HALLMARK/ LIFETIME FILM) (11-5-2023 - 11-6-2023)
(Way down south, where Wild Honeybees roam free, lurks a beautiful twelve year old lady named Holly Bella. Being born on December the 25th in 2009, Holly Bella lost her father, Jacob Bella in one of TWIN TOWENS on September the 11th of 2001. Even being about to set eyes on him, Holly Bella only has a whereout photo of Jacob Bella. Holly Bella's mother, Whitney Bella, told Holly Bella to love and honor this picture of Jacob Bella. That was last picture of Jacob Bella ever tooken. As Holly Bella holds the photo close to her heart, she always thinks about her father in the little old town known as LaFayette, Georgia.)
Holly Bella: I love my mother, oh, yes this I do. Deep in my heart I feel that there is something that my mother just dose not won't me to know. Of what I have gotten from some of his old friends, my father, Jacob Bella, grew up here in LaFayette, Georgia. Maybe I shall ask around and see if anyone knows anything about my dear departed father.
(As Holly Bella slowly walked around the town of LaFayette, Georgia, a older carcinogens man spotted Holly Bella and was surprised. Being a old friend of Jacob Bella, he calmly called Holly Bella over to him. Being a bit afraid, Holly Bella slowly walked toward him. With a friendly smile on his face, he wanted to assure to her that means her no harm. All he wish to do was ask her question.)
Ray David: Patten me, mama, but do you know by any chance of a Jacob Bella? When I look at you, I see Jacob Bella.
Holly Bella: They say that Jacob Bella is my dear departed father. Do you know of him?
Ray David: I am sorry for your loss. Yeah, him and I were best of friends all through elementary school. We had our good days and our bad days. The worst day of them all, besides the day that poor Jacob Bella lost his life, was the day that our friendship slowly faded away. How old were you when you lost your dear father?
Holly Bella: Oddly, he faded away on September the 11th of 2001.
Ray David: What is so odd about that? A lot of good honorable people passed away that day.
Holly Bella: True, I have heard that. I was born on December the 25th of 2009. See what I mean?
Ray David: Oh, indeed I do. It seems that we are in bit of a little pickle here, Holly? May I call you Holly? Jacob Bella always told me that if he was ever blessed with a daughter, that he name her Holly. I asked him why Holly and he said because when I think of Holly, I think of joy and cheerful. Looking at you, Jacob Bella got his daughter he was wanting.
Holly Bella: Ah, well, thank you. I wish I could have known him and know how that I am here on Earth today.
Ray David: Come, come inside my dear loving home and meet my loving family. I am sorry that our home is not a manor ,but it keeps us out of bad weather. They would not allow for me to send a lovely lady as you on her way that I could help.
Holly Bella: That is so kind of you, Ray. Are you sure that I will not be impossing?
Ray David: Me and my family all know your father, Jacob Bella. We would not feel right if you did not stay with us.
(As Ray David and Holly Bella walked into Ray David's humble home, Ray David's family gazed at Holly Bella with shock. Them thereselves did not know that Ray David had a daughter. As Ray David's family all stood up to induce themselves, they all could see Jacob Bella in her face. Holly Bella was feeling happy. Holly Bella heart became so warm that she started to cry with joy.)
Ray David: Family, alloy me to induce you to the daughter of Jacob Bella. Depressing news, Jacob Bella will no longer be with us. Let us all take a moment to remember how good of a friend Jacob Bella was.
Shana David: Jacob Bella was a great and dearest friend. Jacob Bella always helped us. Jacob Bella was always there in our time of need. He was more then a friendly friend, Jacob Bella was more like a family member of mine.
Laura David: Yes, if it was not for your father, Jacob Bella, then I would never have been born. Your father induced my father to my mother. Without that, I would not have been born. I, myself, would like to thank Jacob Bella myself.
Ray David: That was beautiful, Laura. So moving and touching what you just said. Now, let us all hold hands and pray about our dear departed friend, but more like family, Jacob Bella. Holly Bella, will you please join us in this prayer? We are a bit of a religious bunch.
Holly Bella: Sure, I really did not know my father, but I am willing to know more than what I have been told about him.
Ray David: Our Dear Heavenly Father in Heaven, Today, we send all of hopes and prayers to our dear friend that is more like a family member, Jacob Bella. Even though he was always there for some of us, his beloved daughter, Holly Bella, never got the chance to see her father, Jacob Bella. May Holly Bella finds what she is looking for in life. In Lord's name we pray, Amen.
Holly Bella: That was beautiful, Ray David. May I go outside for a moment? I think I have something in my eye.
Ray David: Sure, go ahead. I understand.
(As Holly Bella slowly walks down the street with tears in her, Holly Bella bumped into the African American pastor, Pastor Joseph. When Pastor Joseph looked into Holly Bella's face, it was like looking into a mirror. As Pastor Joseph helped Holly Bella up as she dusted Pastor Joseph, Pastor Joseph could see Holly Bella was hurting. Although it was just a little bump, Holly Bella's real pain was inside. Pastor Joseph invided Holly Bella into his loving church, RED PARADISE HOLY CHAPEL, to talk about the pain that Holly Bella was feeling.)
Pastor Joseph: I am sorry for bumping into my dear. It looks like there is anything bothering you? I am just asking you as not a pastor, but a close loving friend of yours.
Holly Bella: Oh, Pastor Joseph, I do not know if you can help me with my quest or not. See, I am looking for my father, but he passed away on September the 11th of 2001.
Pastor Joseph: Oh, I am sorry, Holly Bella. How did he pass away?
Holly Bella: Oddly, I born on December the 25th of 2009 to have Jacob Bella as a father. How could this be?
Pastor Joseph: I knew that Whitney Bella would have to tell you someday. I never pictured it that it would have been this soon though.
Holly Bella: What are trying to say? What are you talking about?
Pastor Joseph: Holly Bella, I am your father. I was old either in my mind to take care of you and your mother. Late one night, while Whitney Bella was asleep, I took off and became a pastor. As I tried to make study the HOLY BIBLE and remember my family and friends, I thought about you and your mother all the time. Even though I knew y'all would not take me back, I came back after I changed my name.
Will you forgive me, Holly Bella? I beg of please forgive me.
Holly Bella: Like the HOLY BIBLE say, 'Love one another.'
(As Holly Bella and Pastor Joseph hugged, they came together as a family once again. While Holly Bella and Pastor Joseph where hugging, surprisingly, Whitney Bella walked in and hugged Pastor Joseph. Together once again with the faith of God.) THE END
