It’s rare to find a postal worker who loves her job as much as Lisa does. To her, delivering packages was more than a job. It was a way to help people connect, as if each delivery shortened the distance between them. One day, she had the chance to prove it when she discovered a long-lost package.
Lisa had always found joy in her work at the post office. Day after day, she handled countless packages, each one a small mystery wrapped in brown cardboard and layers of tape.
She had a routine she loved, and her work was made even more enjoyable by her colleague, Simon. Together, they had formed a habit of imagining the lives behind the packages they handled.
“Maybe this one’s a board game for a family night,” Lisa would guess with a grin, holding up a medium-sized box.

Simon would chuckle, always ready to add his own twist.
“Or it could be a guitar for a teenager. You know, sent by his grandma, so he can finally start that rock band he’s been dreaming about.”
They’d laugh as they continued sorting packages. It wasn’t just about getting the job done—it was about turning the routine into something fun.

Every package had its own story, even if they had to make it up. This light-hearted game made the long workdays go by quickly, leaving Lisa content with her simple but meaningful job.
One evening, after their regular shift had ended, Lisa and Simon were assigned to clean out the storage room.
It was a dusty, forgotten corner of the post office where old packages sometimes fell from the shelves and got overlooked.
