The Parcel

Leela got a call from the courier delivery.

The parcel had her name. 

She opened the box. 

It was a pink dress that was a size smaller! 

Who could have gifted her? 

Her birthday was some days away...

She did not recognize the sender's name and address.

The given phone-number wasn’t in her contact.

She had broken up with her boy-friend a couple of months ago.

Was he giving her a surprise? 

The next day, the courier company called.

"Madam, That parcel is for another customer. Please return it." 

As Leela handed over that parcel, she received another similar parcel!

    How disappointing for her.
    Perhaps she has a stalker?

    Maybe someone's stolen her identity?

    That almost turned into a disappointment, but another parcel - let's hope this one is really for her!

    I'd like for her to get a nice surprise, but wouldn't she have been told to expect a package?

    I think it's a courier mix-up issue. They're accidentally delivering someone else's parcels to her.
