  later.date.localTime();
  var results = later.schedule(scheduler).next(3);

I was thinking to get:

How to get the expected result? Thanks

Ah nice!

You could also do two cron jobs that reference the same path, and just duplicate the job definition object with unique name values, e.g. { path: '...', name: 'september', cron: '0 0 5 9 *' } and { path: '...', name: 'december', cron: '0 0 5 12 *' } (see https://crontab.guru/#0_0_5_9_*).
