Bing-Bong
Suddenly the door bell's reasonance rang in my ears. I betook myself downstairs and hurried to the front door.
"Hello?" I pondered while opening the door. "Anyone actually here?"
"Annalissa, who is it, darling?" My mother requested of me, while I still held the door open.
"Er, no one? If I didn't know any better, I'd think we were just ding-dong-ditched!" I mused.
But my attention was promptly caught by a medium-sized brown package sitting just off the corner of the front porch. I grabbed the surprisingly heavy, cardboard-paper covered box and transported it indoors. Oddly enough, it didn't say who or where it was from. That fact alone made me prudent.
"What?! What happened?!" my mother interrogated after hearing my fortissimo gasping.
I was at a loss for words; utterly speechless! In this mysterious packaging, this foreign box, this...this gift from god, was a biography. Not just anyone's, no, Gavriil Khavin's autobiography! My Gavriil had an autobiography!
"Are you okay?" my mother asked as she finally reached my spot in the living room.
"Better! I'm absolutely ebullient!" I declared. "Sorry, mom. I really have to go read this. It's an emergency!"
I clambered upstairs and left my mother dumbfounded. Rude, perhaps. But this book was my stimulus, and I needed to begin reading it posthaste.
