The package was small, innocuous-looking. It was addressed to "Mr. Finch." But there was no Mr. Finch living in apartment 3B anymore. He was the one, she was the one, now. Her new life. Her new apartment. And this felt like a reminder of a past she had tried to leave behind.

She tossed the package onto her bed, not bothering to open it. Her mouth twisted with a feeling of unease. What could it be? She didn't want to know. The apartment, the life, everything was hers now.

She walked to the window and stared out at the bustling city below, feeling a distinct sensation of being dismissed. The feeling was a cold weight in her chest.
