It had been a busy morning. Running through the snow, Ablahr approached the last home on his list. He had been there many times but had yet to actually see the people who lived there.
He never got personal with anyone he delivered mail to, but today he was late! His heart raced in fear that they would be angry when they went to get their mail and find nothing in their box!
Stumbling up to the box he froze when he heard the door creak open.

Vinesa walked out wearing a cloak so she wouldn't catch a cold.Hearing the snow being crushed as she stepped on it,she began to hum a melody her mother alway singed to her.
She noticed someone nearby.Even though she is blind she could feel the vibrations very easily."Why hello.."She said to Ablahr.

Ablahr was frozen in his steps, his eyes fighting his brain, wanting to look toward the voice but he was too afraid.
'Is it a girl? I think it's a girl! Frig why does it have to be a girl?!' he thought.
He opened his mouth to return the greeting as it would be rude not to but as it was when confronted by any girl all that came out was a stuttered response.
"G-g-g-good m-morning m-m-miss!"
His face flushed red as his eyes finally moved toward the girl.

Oh he hated that question. Having been asked it over a hundred times in his life he knew the answer well enough...but it was embarrassing. With a sigh he focused on the mail in his hand. Telling the truth ... what a pain.
"J-just ...I'm n-not... heh... v-v-very comfortable ar-round w-w-women..."
He forced a smile and fiddled with the goggles on his forehead, hoping the woman would come and take her mail so he could run home.

"Oh...Its alright I wont bite.."She smiled slightly as she took the mail."Its not like I will..."She smiled and turned to walk back to the house.She went back to her humming.

'Thank the gods,' he sighed to himself, rubbing his face in an effort to make the color in his cheeks subside.
He never liked coming into contact with the people who lived in the houses on his regular mail route. It could only lead to someone intentionally waiting for him to start up a conversation later.
But why would they really? Who would want to talk to him? He was a mailman!
Looking into his bag he mentally kicked himself. He had forgotten to give the woman a small package in the bottom. Maybe he could leave it on the stoop, knock, and make a run for it... no that would be rude.
'OK suck it up Ablahr.... you made a mistake now be a man and fix it,' he encouraged himself. But with every step toward the door he felt like his legs were turning into lead. As he raised his hand to knock on the door he felt his chest expand like a balloon!
'Don't faint...don't faint'

'S-sorry ... f-f-forgot to give you th-this,' he stuttered, holding out the small package.
His head was pounding with the threat of making him black out. Why did this always happen to him? Did he have some kind of illness that prevented him from speaking coherently to a girl?
His eyes were closed and he smiled awkwardly but he chanced a peek at the young lady in front of him. She was pretty, but there was something about her eyes that made him shut his again and concentrate on not fainting.
