3. In Bubbleland laundromat, a delivery driver paused mid-unload, squinting at something odd in the basket of an empty washing machine. He bent down closer—was it really a tiny bubble gum machine, hidden among the detergent bottles? Curious, he tipped the machine over gently—it spit out a single gumball that popped and fizzed like a miniature firework before dissolving into nothingness. The delivery driver shrugged and went back to work, muttering under his breath about strange things happening in laundromats these days. As for the gumball, no one ever claimed it.

'Who knows,' she muttered, 'maybe it’s just another reason not to iron anymore!'
