This Too Shall Pass

I reached into my pocket for some change and ran into a hand.

I pulled my hand out right away. I pulled my pocket open and looked to see what was going on in there.

I saw someone on the other end of the pocket, pulling that end open and looking at me.

I said, “Excuse me, what are you doing in my pocket?”

The other person said, “But this is my pocket!”

I suggested we both close our pockets and wait a minute. Then we would open our pockets and see if we each got our pockets back. The other person agreed. I closed my pocket and waited.
