T was at the airport carrying two suitcases and running late to catch the plane. I also ran to keep pace with him. Then he decided to abandon one of his suitcases because it would be easier to quicken the pace. As I was surprised by this decision, he explained that the suitcase did not contain important stuff except some cheese.
T disappeared in the crowd and I assumed he has already caught the plane, and I thought of going back to pick up the suitcase. The hall was empty except for a cleaning worker who finished his job although the floor was not quite proper. I tried to draw his attention in order to ask him about the lost suitcase but in vain. He walked away and I followed him until he entered an office and disappeared. I entered the same office and asked a uniformed staff about the lost luggage. The staff clarified that the lost and found office was located outside the airport. I argued about the impracticality of the location but the officer apathetically answered that that was it.
I thought that there must be a way to find the suitcase, but then I told myself it might not be that important because after all it was T who abandoned it.
