When I finally arrived to New Orleans I was unpleasantly surprised by the flesh skeletons.
They ware everywhere!

Not like I expected them not to be in New Orleans, but they ware like parasites!

Just. Everywhere.

What I did really like was the architecture! It was simply perfect!
And the witchcraft! One of the main reason why I decided to move here for a short while, so many things I could do.

After the taxi driver took me to the apartment complex, I took all my bags and boxes out of the car and tried to take them up stairs.

Before I made it closer to the stairs,
An acceptably looking male, wanted to help me take two of the heaviest to my door. He was stronger then I thought, and he lifted the boxes with almost no effort.

"Hi there! Let me help you!" he beamed at me the brightest smile I have ever seen.

What a weird creature

"My name is Josh, are you new here?"

"Considering the fact I have boxes full of stuff taken up to the second floor of a place that is not inhabited by another being...yes I just moved in" I say with my monotone voice and serious face

His face genuine smile turned a little stained and he chuckled nervously "that's a very unique way of speaking"

We started walking up the stairs " damn this box is quite heavy, what do you have in it?"

He didn't look like he had problems with it, almost like he was acting that it's heavy

"Some things from my childhood" I finished the end of my sentence at the same time we reached my door and the other boxes

I but the bag I was carrying down and turn to face him
"Well, I appreciate your unnecessary help" I dismiss him with that and without waiting for an answer, I turn around and unlock the door.

"Don't you need help with all those boxes?" He questioned, when I turned to look at him he had his eyebrows raised and head titled to the right.

"I don't believe I will need it"

"You sure? I mean you can invite me in and I gladly help" he insisted

"No" I answered simply with natural face

" I mean That's what neighbours are for!" He laughed lightly and then smiled with a weird twinkle in his eyes

"As I said before, I need no help whatsoever" I stepped outside to stand in front of him

I Lock my eyes with his, I take the box of my childhood memories from his grasp

"You need my help"
He said seriously, his face twisted into concentration, but why?

Maybe he has stomach ache

He certainly looks he does with the face pull

I ignore the not so pleasant butterflies and answer with my forever monotone voice
"Again, I appreciate your unneeded help"

I head inside my apartment, and turn to him

"Goodbye" I slam the door to his surprised face

I wait when he leaves to take the rest of my boxes in

I put the box on the kitchen counter

What a basic character he is
