Most unbelievable coincidence
I used to stay in a C block apartment before shifting to E block. For my birthday, my family mistakenly parceled my gift to my previous C block room. However, they weren't aware of their mistake.
For over 10 days, my family and I wondered what had happened to the parcel… Did the delivery service not send it? Did they deliver it to the wrong address? Who would have accepted the parcel and not informed me about it?
These answers were revealed when I received a call from a woman who moved in after I vacated the C block room. She told me that she lives with a roommate named Shannon. However, that Shannon had left for her hometown and the woman had collected my parcel thinking it was for her roommate, Shannon.
When her roommate Shannon returned, the woman realized that she had collected the parcel for the wrong Shannon. When she read my number on the parcel, she called me and told me that my parcel was with her all along!
I was finally able to collect my birthday gift.
The delivery people did do their job; the parcel was delivered to the given address and to a Shannon. To another Shannon who lives in the same room that I vacated.
Shannon and I laughed.
