I was on the sofa when my father asked my mom if she knew when something they had bought would arrive in the mail. She said she was told the package would arrive today at 9 in the morning. It was already well into the afternoon.
Apparently the employees of this company weren’t allowed to stray from the building for too long, she explained. They’re afraid that one of them might just wander off and disappear. There was a case where they had once brought a group of children on a hiking trip but one of them fell and died before they had set this regulation in place. “A child, like Clark” she added.
My brother question her way of putting it. Asking me if it was just “an apparition” and not actually related to me at all and was merely a hypothetical.
The company sold pork floss. They came in green packaging.
