The Suitcase.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE60zxHZ8Xl
You’re working hard at the airport, loading everyone’s heavy luggage on board the planes cargo hold. Your shoulders are beginning to ache from the weight of some of the suitcases. You look up, sun in your eyes, to John, your colleague and friend, who’s looking at someone’s suitcase, held outstretched in his hands. That curious look on his face looks in your direction.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHI1ZfUlfHu
“Aren’t you curious who is flying to these wonderful places?”969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWxNf4jycm
“Probably just rich business men and fortunate families taking a vacation.”969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqfEMaE2qQ
He begins to shake his head, “Nope,” he says shaking his head as he waves you to come closer, “take this suitcase for example,” as he reaches down and picks up a leather scuffed case.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSFNH6nPYg
“What about it?” You say hiding your curiosity.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vS5mi0yuu
“Well, look at it, you can learn a lot about someone just by their suitcase,” he smirked, “and a lot more by what they have in it, but we can’t look in it,” A look of small disappointment slowly took hold of him, then as quickly as it was there, he was letting out a new grin.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbBOCLxFgt
“What’s wrong with your face? That grin is worrying me.”969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MdrWljG4d
“Well lets work out who this suitcase belongs to.”969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIpNtBUY5L
Reluctantly you let out a “Fine” and take a closer look at the suitcase.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn0dUZ1HkLv
As you look over the brown leather suitcase, you can tell it’s old, yet it still has some shine, so well looked after. It’s not that large. Maybe a little larger than a laptop bag. The ring around the handle says Egypt.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJD16AWOFoM
“Maybe he’s an old guy who decided to take a holiday,” you say, almost giving up.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5NuxguZMR
“No! Try harder. Really believe in it, make a story for this guy,” John’s eager look awaiting you to think of a story on the spot.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8M84n0Zwou
You think quickly and begin creating a story in your mind. As you start to tell the story you don’t quite believe in it but as it goes along you feel much more engaged by the idea you’ve just created.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWZLGNnVMJ
“Mr Henry is an older man who has been sent to Egypt. He’s on his way there for something. NO! He’s been sent there, by his boss. He works long days and is never far from his bags. Likes to take notes and observe his surroundings. The scuffs on the case is from wear and tear as he travels a lot for his job. He’s going to investigate something.”969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrSGFiE2jw
“Keep going!” John says as his eyes grow wider on your every word.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHV9sjnT76Z
“He’s an Archaeologist. He’s going to study the pyramids, Mr Henry is one of the most respected people in his field and he is going there to observe the work being carried out at the pyramids. Probably keeps a laptop in his suitcase. He travels light as he knows he’ll be back before long to report his findings and observations,” You take a step back in amazement of the persons’ life you just created. John looks just as amazed.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMAh134fur8
“Stop slacking off you two!” Snaps you out of your day dream about Mr Henry.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJJX4Nu8u7
You quickly look towards the sound of the noise, it’s your supervisor.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDz8yStvAkJ
“Sorry,” John quickly replies and starts loading the cases again.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLotcBZEOi
You move slowly to load Mr Henry’s case wondering if your story was true. Maybe it’s just better not to know.969Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSgimS2ZN6
You move to finish loading the rest of the luggage before the flight departs seeing peoples suitcases as stories just waiting to be told.
