The Suitcase


They opened the suitcase and the husband saw three packages that were wrapped in wax paper. The paper was now brittle, so he tried to retrieve them from the green case carefully. Thankfully, the wax paper did not break. The couple were very confused and they couldn’t help wondering who had put a suitcase here, why the package was in their basement, what were in the three packages.

The wife then opened the first package and almost lost her breath. She was holding a wad of $20 bills that could probably pay off all their personal loans. In obvious shock, the two remained still for a good five minutes. This was just the first package, so what could be the contents of the second and third packages? The couple began to feel a mixture of anxiety, worry and excitement.
