Writing Prompt – Day 67

A handsome stranger shows up at the door to return a misdelivered package, when they realize…

My example :

My hands are pruned as I reach for the dish towel hanging on the stove handle. The knock at my door continues despite yelling toward them that I’ll be there in a minute. I remind myself that this chaotic day is almost over. Perhaps I’ll soak in the tub after handling whoever is on my doorstep. I toss the dish towel on the counter and hurry over to the door. Being as short as I am, I have to stand on my tippy-toes to see through the peep hole.

Damn.

From what I can see, it’s a man. And although his back to me, he doesn’t look familiar to me. He’s holding something in his hand – it looks like a package – but he isn’t wearing any sort of mail carrier uniform.

He knocks again, and the sound radiates through my ear. Well, I asked for that. Just open the door already, I tell myself.

“Hello,” I smile. “I wasn’t expecting a delivery today,” I say as calmly as I can. When this man turns around, I suck in a breath. He is breathtakingly handsome.

“Hey! I’m Ryan. I’m housesitting for my sister across the street, and well, this package arrived on her door,” he smiles back. “Are you sure you weren’t expecting a delivery? It says your address right on it.” He points to the label that clearly has my address printed on it.

My palms are sweating. I’m cursing myself for not wearing any make-up today.
