Case report
What Cap believed. Of all the doors in the wall, one was meant for them. He could feel it. It had his size, and a locker that size can only be waiting for a cat.
What happened. That exact door clicked open above his head. A Provider’s hand reached in, took a small brown parcel and left. The door closed. Nobody looked down.
Sir’s note. Lockers are assigned by a system, not by feeling. The Recipient was not rude; the Recipient simply did not know there was a cat waiting. One line in the notebook. Sir did not read it out.
