Cling cling!!
The door bell rings, it was the mail man grandpa's favorite time of the day.
"Diane.. Diane??; Someone's at the door!
"Yes gramps I'm coming!"
A beautiful young girl in her early twenties dashed out the door to answer her grandpa who was sitting on the couch in the living room watching his favorites sports.
"You know you could have gotten it you didn't have to call me all the way from my room gramp".
Grandpa Julius an old man in his seventies with gray hair) "ha what's the fun in having grandkids' he said with a big smirk on his face." Diane smiled, turned back to walk to the door before hitting her leg on the table.
"Ouch"
"Careful young lady I don't want a limping granddaughter "
"Oh please grandpa" rolling her eyes she turned and opened the door.
"Good day Mr Cooper! I see the mails are out early today".
"Surely the day is a bright and wonderful as you are Diane".
(Grey Cooper a bright young man in his forties has been West woods Mail man for over a decade.He used to be a good friend of Diane's father.) "Is Grand Jul in?"
"Yes he is"
"Good Morning Jul!!
"Good morning Cooper I hope you brought me good news today??"
" I sure did!"
** he turns to Diane handing her two envelopes "I think this is yours (a green envelope with a luxurious look ) and this is for grandpa.
(In whisper)
"I'm guessing he's with a bottle of beer right now "
"Oh how did you know uncle Cooper? He never gets tired of it" she replied after a chuckle
" I can hear you two whisper outside!! I know you are talking about me!"
"Yes we are" they chorused and laughed
" Cut them some slack we all know this is your favorite activity" an old lady obviously Grandma who just came out of the kitchen said and everyone burst into laughter.
"that was a good one grandma Gracie haha. Alright I'll be on my way have a great day"
"Byee uncle Cooper"
"Bye Diane"
she smiled back as she looks outside the empty field, kicked a stone from the porch and closes the door, she looks at her green envelope with expecting eyes and hands Grandpa his envelope before rushing straight to her room.
'"Jul did you see the way she was grinning in excitement" grandma Gracie asked in wonder
. " Oh yes I saw that, do you think she's seeing someone??"
" I don't know about that but if she was, they wouldn't be sending mails would they? What is this the 70's ?" Grandma replied to which they both laughed
" My goodness those good ol'days huh haha- but I still wonder...
