Joyce was feeling on the top of the world.
She had just bought a fantastic new white dotted black dress and a pair of
black dotted white stockings she was going to wear at her friend’s graduation
party the next day. It was already eight o’clock so she went back home to wash
and have them ready in time.
At home, when she opened the shop bag, she
realized that the stockings weren’t inside. She had probably forgotten them in
the shop. Unfortunately it was too late to go back to the shop, so she decided
to wash, dry and iron only the dress that night. She would go to the shop next
morning at the opening time. She went to the laundry room on the basement floor
where the washing machine and the tumble-dryer were. As soon as she got there
she saw that the washing machine was on but no one was there. She got closer
and looked through its window: a pair of black dotted white stockings were
floating in the water. It was definitely the strangest thing that had happened
to her.
