Happy is at her post in front
of the computer re-reading
the blog page again.
The doorbell RINGS.
Happy looks at the clock.
Clock says 9:45 PM.
Happy shouts down the hallway,
"Was that the door bell?"
The door bell RINGS again.
Ben sticks his head out of
his bedroom door, "That is indeed
the doorbell."
Happy stops at the top of the stairs,
of the computer re-reading
the blog page again.
The doorbell RINGS.
Happy looks at the clock.
Clock says 9:45 PM.
Happy shouts down the hallway,
"Was that the door bell?"
The door bell RINGS again.
Ben sticks his head out of
his bedroom door, "That is indeed
the doorbell."
Happy stops at the top of the stairs,
"It is nearly ten o'clock."
"Did you give our address to that ARG?"
Happy is now speaking in a hushed tone,
"I only did what you told me to do!
I told them that I would be
home but I didn't say where
my home is located!"
The door bell RINGS again.
Happy and Ben hurry down the stairs.
"Did you give our address to that ARG?"
Happy is now speaking in a hushed tone,
"I only did what you told me to do!
I told them that I would be
home but I didn't say where
my home is located!"
The door bell RINGS again.
Happy and Ben hurry down the stairs.
Happy opens the cellar door. Ben runs
down and comes back up with a broom
and a shovel. The twosome walk shoulder
to shoulder to the front door.
The doorbell RINGS again.
Happy screams!
A voice from outside says, "I'm sorry to
bother you, but I have a package for
Happy Rogers."
Ben looks out the peep hole, "Leave it
on the stoop."
"I'm sorry, sir, but I am instructed to
only leave this in the hands
of Happy Rogers. Are you
Happy Rogers?"
Ben looks at his Mom.
Happy takes a deep breath, "Please
do not fear. Please do not fear."
She opens the door.
The messenger smiles, "Happy Rogers?"
Happy courageously nods.
He hands her the box,
"Congratulations, sammeee."
Happy takes the small cardboard box.
The messenger turns and disappears
into the darkness.
Happy closes the door and
begins to cry.
