-sorry if the spelling is off and punctuation
It was the mid June and the sun was beaming through the windows.
I sat up from the couch I was resting on. stretching my back since it was stiff. I check my phone for notifications, which to no surprise there are none. I sigh in disappointment.
then again..what was I expecting? a text from someone? ha. as of that would happen. I stand up and start walking to the kitchen for food.
The door bell rings.
I jump a little by the sound. It must be my new pajamas that I ordered!
I slouch as I walk to the door. Wearing loose pajama shorts and a no sleeved white t-shirt and slippers.
I open the door to see the delivery man. He has dark red glasses, with black slightly messy short hair, and a defined jawline. He looks at me and hands me the package. My eyes widen when I look at his slender fingers. He snaps his finger in my face."Hello ma'am?" I grab the package being brought back into reality. I rub the back of my neck slightly embarrassed, muttering under my breath."thanks..."He looks away, writing on his notepad."just doing my job..!" I shut the door, locking it.
Ahh that was so awkward!
I peek through the window to see his delivery truck drive away.
I sigh. sliding my back down the wall, sitting down on the floor. I use my teeth to open the package. I look inside the box to see it's a camera. I tilt my head in confusion. "I didnt order a camera.." Realization hits me like a bullet.
this isnt my package!?
I run to my kitchen grabbing tape and scissors. I scurry over to package and retape it shut." geez what a mess.."I began to wonder if I will meet that guy again.
5 hours later when the sun has set
and the moon is out.
Laying on the couch, I am long asleep with popcorn on my stomach with the TV on.
The doorbell rings.I sit up quickly, rubbing my eyes. The door bell rings a second time. I walk to the door, sluggish. when I open the door my eyes are met with the delivery guy from earlier.
"uh..hi again?"I say looking at him confused."hi..so I kinda need that package i gave you earlier"he says quietly."oh ok I'll get it for you"I close the door slightly. Walking over to the package on the table.
Wait a minute! this is my opportunity to make a friend! but how? do I ask for his name? hmmm I need a reason so i dont sound like a creep gathering info.
I walk back to the door. I open the door to hand him the package."thanks! sorry for mixing up the packages, it wont happen again!"he states reading from his notepad. I frown slightly, as he walks away.
I notice the gap in the stone walkway and I say in a mildly loud tone"watch out-" He trips dropping the pack age with a loud crack. Me and him stand there for a few seconds in silence. I break the silence by saying"how expensive was that package?" He turns to look at me with severe regret on his face. His look tells me that camera was at least 100 dollars."damnit!"he mumbles under his breath in a husky and irritated voice."Uh..its just one package it should be fine!"I say trying to reassure him. I dont know what I was thinking cause I dint even own the package so it wasn't my place to talk.
"I'm so fired..."he said as he whined as he picked up the broken package. He turns to look at him again. I mumble"my names polly by the way"i attempt to lighten the mood.he holds in his laugh."polly!? ha! who names their kid polly. like polly pocket?"he says teasing.
I didnt care that he was making fun of my name. what I did care about was his laugh.
his laugh as so attractive it hurt.
