They opened it. “What the hell…?” I blinked, feigning confusion as they turned the box toward me. Empty. Completely empty. “What—?” I frowned, leaning forward slightly. “That’s not—” “Where is it?” the man snapped. “I don’t know!” I said, my voice rising just enough. “That’s not my problem, I have no idea what any of this is”

“I need to see this end.” I waited in agonizing silence after they left. Paced. Tried to sketch but couldn’t focus. Hours crawled by. Finally, my phone rang. Damien. “It’s over?” I asked immediately. His voice was tight. “No. The place was empty. He cleared out hours ago. But he left something.” My stomach dropped. “What?” “A message. Painted on the wall.

Each of the boxes had engraved writing at the bottom that glowed red. “You have passed,” I read. Both I and Gregory got off the ground and found that two boxes, separate from the others, glowed white. “One of those boxes must be the one we brought, and the other could be the one with the fourth ingredient,” Gregory said. “Well, what are we waiting for?” I said that we rushed to the boxes and picked them up. I opened mine, but it was empty. Then Gregory opened his and found some seeds inside. “What are those?” I asked.

The box had all kinds of snacks, like nuts, dried berries, and even handmade candies. The sweet fragrance wafted out from the box as soon as the lid was removed, and it managed to attract Odell’s attention.

Maybe I will develop diabetes and hypertension one of these days, but who cares? Sweets and fried foods give me comfort, aside from my mom’s warm and tight hug. Hiraya said to herself. Hiraya drank the water in an instant and finished it in just ten seconds, and saw a big brown box. It looks like it came from a nearby online shopping store, and it looks like it is just recently delivered. An opened box. Too neat to be an old one. The labels surrounding the box have drawings and pictures that seems and look like the sweets similar to what Mom offered me.

He extended the gift toward Ava with a tender, outstretched hand. Ava’s eyes widened with excitement as she accepted the box, her tiny fingers handling it delicately. Her youthful curiosity sparked as she eagerly began to unwrap the surprise, her anticipation growing with each passing moment. “Thank you, Uncle Leo!” Ava exclaimed with sheer delight as the wrapping paper fell away to reveal a small box of sugar-free chocolates.
