IT’S ALL IN THE WRAP

Erestor had been waiting for the package for ages. He asked every time a courier came if he carried a package. He checked and rechecked every time a package came for someone else. He was crestfallen every time his package did not come.

One fair winter afternoon, a wagon crossed the bridge and came into the hidden city. Surprisingly, Erestor was too busy to go out to greet it and in truth, he forgot about it rather quickly.

“I brought your package,” Glorfindel hurried into his friend’s office and handed him the large box. He’d been shocked when Erestor didn’t show up to check the boxes.

“Thank you.” Erestor did not even bother to open it but set aside and returned to the stack of papers on his desk. Glorfindel lingered for a bit but finally left, disappointed that
he wouldn’t get to see what was in the package.

Erestor finished his work then opened the box. Inside were yards and yards of bubble wrap around a small blue glass kitten. He smiled at the kitten and set it upon his desk. Then he grabbed the huge pile of bubble wrap and carried it with him to his chair by the window. He sat down, smiled happily and began to pop one tiny air bubble after another. He was so glad it had finally come. He’d run out of the stuff months ago and nothing seemed to sooth his nerves likes popping bubble wrap at the end of the day!
