Who's Mystery is This?
As I look down the tracks the flickering light outlines a small box wrapped in brown paper. The edge is torn as though someone had tried to open it, but left in a hurry. I look to the left and right slowly, sending piercing looks in to the dark corners of the station. Where could they have gone? I pick up the box, which is surprisingly heavy. I think I can hear bits of metal or glass inside. Rain begins to fall like gang members intimidating me off their turf. I retreat to the covered area. I don’t think I can track down the owner of the package. Who knows how long it has been here. My car is the only vehicle at the station and there was no one when I pulled up.
