I — no time nowhere box

Words: chimney, drug store, time, window, prayers, postman, nowhere

Ambient: dark room

Mood:

It was a year ago. I worked as a postman at that time. I was asked to deliver a small box to an unremarkable drug store. It was not far away from my place that’s why I decided to do it on the way home.

The store was located on the first floor at the end of the dark small corridor. The entrance were locked by 2 small bushes. Like prayers they asked for something. The door looked like a chimney rather than a common door. I knocked several times. But nothing happened. Finally when I lost my last hope low voice asked: “who is that?”. I introduced myself and then the door opened slowly.

Unexpected young woman met me. She took the box and threw it in the opened small window without any hesitation. “What are you doing? You even didn’t open it”,- I cried. She stared at me unblinking eyes, smiled and said: “ if you want to open it, well, do it. But keep in mind it’s just a nowhere notime box”

I wanted to ask what does that mean, but she closed the door under my nose immediately. My curiosity was so strong. So I picked up the box and went home.

Actually I was reluctant to open this box, so I put it under my bad. This puzzle had been bothered me for a week and I could not stand it and on Friday evening I opened the box. It was empty.
