"Right. This one. Okay." Kristoff scrolled down the screen of his cellphone and after finding the number he wanted to call he immediately dialed the number.
He waited nervously for the call to connect because today is Sunday and that means, tomorrow is Monday and Monday means he has to go to work and until this second, the package he's been waiting for hasn't arrived yet.
Anna, his wife, faithfully sat beside him, her arm around his shoulder while her ear pressed against the other side of his cell phone. She was nervous too.
"Yes, hello, this is Kristoff Bjorgman. Is this the Joy Toy company? Okay, so, a few days ago, I ordered some samples of toys. I want to make sure, has my package been sent?"
"We just called the courier who delivered your package, Sir. He said, now he has arrived-"
Kristoff's face lit up with immense relief all of a sudden. "Really?! He has arrived?" He and Anna then hurried to the front door to greet the courier they had been waiting desperately for, only to find no one at their doorstep.
Anna and Kristoff looked at each other because they were confused and disappointed that the courier, which was said to have arrived, still hadn't arrived. Anna then closed the door and returned to the living room followed by her husband who was now even more confused. He then put the phone back to his ear.
"Hello, Sir. You said the courier now has arrived. But there is no one in front of my house." Kristoff complained.
"Mr. Bjorgman. I haven't finished talking just now. What I wanted to say is that, now the courier has arrived at his house. At the courier's house. Not your house."
"WHAT?!" Now his confusion turned to annoyance. "How come your courier has arrived at his house? He hasn't delivered my package yet."
"I don't know why either, Mr. Bjorgman. I asked him about that, but he didn't answer. His cell phone is dead."
Kristoff sighed heavily. He turned to his wife beside him and shook his head weakly. He couldn't do anything for now.
"Okay. I call you again later. Thank you, bye." Kristoff hung up the phone and put his cell phone in the pocket of his shorts.
"Keep calm, Kristoff. I'm sure the package will arrive tomorrow. Okay? Cheer up!" Said Anna encouragingly, she patted her husband on the shoulder and smiled widely trying to remain optimistic.

"I know that, Hiro. I also want to meet you guys and I don't want to be called snobby or something. You're my friend, please understand. Okay? I also really want to play Play Station and compete with you guys, but I'm really busy right now. No, I haven't got a job yet. Yes, there's a lot to do at home. Okay. Bye, Hiro." Jack placed the cell phone on the kitchen table and looked up when he heard footsteps approaching.
That morning, he woke up early and did not find his wife beside him. A little worried, he got out of bed to do an emergency search and couldn't find Elsa anywhere inside the house. Now, when he saw his wife walking into the house in a sleeveless top, yoga pants and ballet shoes, clutching a bag and seriously reading a small pile of papers in her hands, he approached and greeted her.
"Hey, Elsa." He greeted, standing in front of his wife who was just humming to answer his greeting while still seriously reading the paper she was holding. "Where have you been?"
Elsa looked up and was a little surprised to find her husband was standing right in front of her and was now holding her elbows and seemed to be trying to reach for the bag and paper she was holding. "Huh? Oh, I just came back from the office to pick up some important paperwork."
