You are at the office for about half an hour when the admin comes in and drops an envelope on your desk. “It was just brought by courier and it says personal.”

Just then you hear a knock on the door.

“Another delivery,” the admin says as he deposits the small box on your desk. “I know it isn’t your birthday. Some special occasion?”

You grab your stuff and head towards the door. “Some stuff has come up. Can you postpone any meetings until tomorrow?” you ask as you pass his desk.

“Sure. Things OK?”

“Just something to take care of. Nothing big deal.”

On the seat is another envelope. On the outside it reads
