Curious, he got out to investigate and found the source: a small vial left open on the counter. Inside were colorful candies—cherry, lemon, mint—that explained the mysterious smell. It turned out the pharmacist had been experimenting with flavorings for new medicines. With a laugh, the delivery driver joked, ‘Next time, maybe stick to pills!’

Curious, the delivery driver approached him and asked what he was doing. The old man replied, ‘Just talking to my lucky charm.’ Turns out it was just an empty pill bottle. The next day, everyone in town joked that maybe the old guy’s luck rubbed off—because sure enough, the pharmacy ran out of aspirin!’
