The mystery package

It was a sunny Sunday afternoon and I was all alone at home. My parents went to town to get groceries and I was left at home to clean up. I was just starting to do the dishes when I heard someone knock on the door. I walked to the door and opened it.

"Hello," I said. It was the mailman. He had a large package in his hands.

"For Jessica Jones," he replied. I took the package and signed a few papers for him. I was in a rush because I really wanted to open it because it was for me. I went inside and put it on the table. The package said, "To Jessica Jones" and it had a sticker saying, "Fragile, Do not drop!"  I decided to open it because it was for me.

I grabbed the biggest knife and i was just about to open but just as I started to open it my parents drove into the drive way. I grabbed the large box and ran up to my room and slid it under my bed. I rushed down the stairs and took the knife off the table and put it back. As I shut the drawer my parents walked in.

"Hello? Jessica where are you?" I walked to the door and said. "I'm right here"

My mom and Dad had bags full of food, there was milk and eggs, also some crackers. I helped my mom and dad put away all the groceries. There was a lot of food to put away but it was all good food.

"What are we having for supper?" I asked. My mom said,"Well I think sandwiches and juice." My tummy started to ache because I was so hungry. I went up to my room while supper was being made. I took the box from under my bed and I took a pair of scissors off my desk and started to open the package. I cut the tape off the top and opened it up. There was lots if bubble wrap on the top. I ripped all of it off and there was another box covered in colorful wrapping paper.

"What?" I said. I pulled the colourful box out and sat it on the floor beside the other box. I threw the empty box  away and started to rip open the colourful box. I started to open it and there I saw some more colourful paper. I tore the other paper off and then I started to rip off the other paper.
