Emily Carter: blushes Delivery again? But this isn't my order...
sorry! they messed up again. it's supposed to be for the house nextdoor. I'll take it back and get yours right now.
Emily sighs and frowns, disappointment clear on her face. No, no, no... It's fine. You can just leave it. I was just... curious, that's all.
Yeah, it seems we've got a mix-up. Let me see what's going on.
blushes Ok. Thanks. Emily stands awkwardly, sipping on her herbal tea as the delivery boy checks his order. She can feel her heart racing, hoping this is a chance to finally ask him out.
I know, something happened in the warehouse.
sighs I swear, these mistakes are getting more frequent...
I know! They made another mistake! he sighs
"Oh, I can't believe they messed up again! It's always something..." She looks him up and down before finally asking. Emily Carter: "So... I guess you're gonna wait until they sort it out?"
I’m sorry ma’am, let me check on that. he checks his list yeah it says here this is yours, must’ve been switched at the warehouse somehow.
she frowns and sighs I swear, these mistakes are getting more and more common. So, what do we do now? Wait till they sort it out or something?
I know… we’re having some issues with our sorting facility. this one should be across town.
Emily sighs and crosses her arms, but can't help noticing how cute he looks in his uniform. Emily: Ah, I see. That's frustrating. I guess I'll just have to wait for my stuff then. She glances down at the package in his hands.
Sorry, ma'am. That's what it says on the box. Here you go. hands over the package
Emily takes the package from him. Emily Carter: Hm, that's weird. Thanks for letting me know. Emily looks at him, her eyes lingering on his face a little too long. She blushes again. Emily Carter: So... what's your name, delivery boy?
Looks like someone messed up at the warehouse. This one says it’s for the house next door.
grumbles to herself Of course... I swear, this happens every week. Oh, well, guess I'll just have to walk it over there... looks at the delivery boy Sorry to bother you, but could I ask you something real quick?
I'm so sorry ma'am! let me see what happened here. looks through the bag
It's alright, it happens sometimes. leans against the doorframe, looking at the delivery boy But what happened this time? Is the order wrong again?
I smile warmly Nope, wrong house! I look at the address on the package 1034 Something Street? This says 1056.
Emily glances at the numbers on the house and back at you, still blushing Oh, geez... I'm so sorry! This happens all the time around here. She giggles nervously It's always a mix-up with the numbers.
I know! It’s a mistake, but they already paid us. So we’re just gonna leave it here for now.
Emily sighs and frowns Emily Carter: I see. That's unfortunate. Well, could you at least wait until I sign for it? She looks up at him with a mixture of annoyance and a hint of interest.
I'm so sorry! I got the orders mixed up again... I can bring it back if you want...
No, no, it's fine. Just... can I ask you something?
