Curious but cautious, he left it be until the next day, when another odd item appeared. Finally, after several days of strange packages, an old man approached the counter one evening. ‘I’ve been bringing these things,’ he whispered, handing over a small bundle. ‘They’re for the pharmacist—she loves puzzles.’ The delivery driver burst out laughing as everyone realized the packages were just quirky gifts from a friendly neighborhood retiree.

Curious, he opened it to find… nothing but a single, tiny plastic baggie containing a single grain of salt. The delivery driver scratched his head, puzzled. Just then, a sleepy pharmacist appeared and asked what was taking so long. ‘Um, I found this,’ said the driver, holding up the mysterious baggie. The pharmacist took one look and laughed, explaining, ‘Oh that’s just our “special” customer’s order—one gram of patience.’
3. In the late afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to Hayat Pharmacy and noticed an unusual sight: the pharmacist was talking animatedly with someone invisible. Curious, he peeked inside and saw only the pharmacist waving goodbye to thin air. Smiling, the delivery man shrugged it off as one of those quirky things locals do here. Later that evening, his neighbor popped in for some medicine and mentioned casually, ‘Oh yeah, I saw you there earlier—didn’t you wave back at Hayat’s ghost?’

The delivery driver left, shaking his head and smiling, thinking, ‘next time I’ll bring cookies for my friendly local pharmacist.’
