In an old optician’s shop in a quiet neighborhood, a regular customer always asked the same question: ‘Why does that delivery driver keep staring at us through the window?’ Finally, one day the owner decided to follow the mysterious gaze and discovered nothing but a delivery driver with a crooked neck, trying to read the shop’s sign while balancing on his bicycle. Everyone had a good laugh, except for the poor guy who just wanted to deliver some glasses.
