An Early Bird Delivery

I was engrossed talking to my fiancé on Skype when the doorbell rang. I was kind of wondering who it was since it’s way too early in the morning for visitors. My mom’s neighbor friends do visit us as early as 6 o’clock but they don’t bother to ring the doorbell. They just yell out and call mom by her name, so that’s why I wondered who it was. I went and looked through the peephole and saw this young man standing at the gate in front of our home office. His face was not familiar so I went outside and asked what he wanted. He handed me a white envelope that was definitely familiar to me; it was our internet bill.

I smiled and asked if he was new at the company and he said yes. I hadn’t seen him before and I asked him why he came so early in the morning, and he told me that he had lots of bills to deliver all across the city so he started early so he’d get done before sundown. 'Twas a very hardworking, as well as smart, young man! Keep up the good work!
