Amelia eyes widen when he flinched. Maybe I shouldn't have done that. She watched as he nibbled the sweet cookie. A smile graced her lips as she watched him eat the cookie quickly. She was glad he liked it. It always made Amelia happy when she saw others enjoying her food. Amelia then proceeded to finish her cookies and milk. Once she finish she put her dishes in the sink. She wiped her mouth with a napkin before throwing it away. The napkins were in the middle of the table in a metal holder. There was a small black trash tin behind the table. Next she quickly washed and dried the dishes before she put them away. She simply dried her hands on her shorts.
Ding Dong. Amelia looked up and walked off into the living room. She opened the door. It the was the young mail carrier, Josh. He had four boxes. He walked in and placed them on the rug. Then he handed her the clipboard. He looked around the area before his eyes landed on the male who was at the kitchen table. She signed the papers quickly and handed it back to him.
"Thank you. Have a nice day Josh," she said. She wanted to get him out of her cabin as soon as possible. Amelia did not want to be bothered with any questions he may have about the stranger in her cabin. She held the door wide open as she waited for him to walk out. He just gave her a questioning look before he left. She closed the door and locked it. A sigh escaped Amelia's lips.
"Hopefully he does not talk about the stranger he saw in my cabin today. My parents will probably have a fit, especially because this stranger is a male. Who knows what they will think," she said, saying her thoughts out loud. She glanced at the boxes before she entered the kitchen. She got a knife. She returned to the living room. Next she moved the boxes next to her bean bag. She put one box in her lap as she sat down on the bean bag. She opened the box and put what was inside on the rug. Inside were dough shaped bird feeders. There was a rose red, cloud white, navy blue, and lime green one. Each had a sliver chain attached to it.
She placed the empty box on her other side. In the next box were about five bags of bird feed. Amelia placed it next to the bird feeders. In the third box was a metal wind chime which was shaped as a sunshine yellow butterfly with onyx edges. She left the wind chime in the box. Amelia slowly stood and put the knife in the sink. She leaned against the sink before she looked at the stranger.
"What's your name?" she asked, but then thought that he wouldn't probably understand her question. She placed her hand on her chest. "Amelia," she said before gesturing her hand out to him. She hoped he understood what she was saying to some extent. Amelia again put her hand on her chest. "Amelia," she said once again before she gestured her hand out to him once again.
