12 Days of Christmas

Gift Five
December 17, 2011
Pots fell into the soapy water as Rin moved about the kitchen gathering the dishes that were scattered around from breakfast. She hummed as she dropped more pots into the water before she stuck her hands in and began washing. Her eyes were closed as she rocked side to side to the sound her throat made until a knock at the door startled her.
Pulling her hands out the water, she glanced over her shoulder out the opened window in the living room to see a FedEx truck parked outside her house. Picking up the kitchen towel, she dried her hands as she headed towards the door. Pulling it back, she looked to see a female worker standing there, a box in one hand and a clipboard in the other. "Ms. Rin Nakamura?"
"That is me," Rin said with a nod of the head.
"Here you go ma'am, if you could sign this it would be great," she said handing the clipboard to Rin.
She took it, quickly scratching her signature on the paper then handed it back. "Great thank you. Here you are ma'am." The woman passed the box to her and walked down the walkway.
Rin closed the door before going to sit down on the couch. She used a pair of scissors to open the box and out slid a case with an iPad encased inside it. Rin's eyes grew wide before she placed it down and picked up her laptop that sat beside her. Logging on to her e-mail she quickly typed up a message to Sesshomaru.

I'm going to kill you when you get here. Do you know that? An iPad! What have I told you about gifts that expensive? But I love it because it came from you. Eh, I guess I won't kill you but I will give you a good slap across the head when you get here. I look forward to seeing you, only what, six more days till you come back from your business meeting? Oh yeah, I meant to ask you this earlier but how in the world do you have all these gifts coming on each one of the days? Did you prearrange this?
XOXO,
Rin
She sent it before placing the laptop down again and walking into the kitchen.
