A strange box
The day of the interview was still young, and Miranda had just dropped off her kid at school. The doorbell rang while she sat at her dining room table, preparing for the interview. When she opened the door, the only thing on her doorstep was a cardboard box.

She then set it down in her garage. She soon understood, however, that she was mistaken about the box.
