Winter in Maraqua (215 views)

Wylion pulled the tarp around her and the fragile Dunkydoos she had ordered months ago from Mystery Island. She cursed the slowness of the Neopian Postal Service and the frigid temperatures that had killed almost half her stock and covered the surface of the water in a thin, glasslike layer of ice. No one wanted to buy flowers in the winter, anyways, and although she had an agreement with her landlord, it was extremely tentative. She stared at the door for a few minutes, hoping the bell that signified a customer would ring.

December was one of the busiest months for the post office, and right around this time Gina came down with a terrible petpet flue. This slowed down the services drastically, since petpets were an essential form of transportation for the post office. More than anything Talka loathed being unable to deliver and travel, delivering was what made him happy. After all, he brought a smile to the receivers face!

He was left no option but to work with the reception and take in service while Gina was sick, dealing with impatient people who want to rush things, and complaints from people who haven't received their packages.
