First day back in your homeland after three years of studying abroad. You managed to snag the last unit of an apartment you’ve been eyeing and was in process of moving smaller boxes inside.

Preoccupied and engrossed with the task at hand, you’ve yet to realise the presence of a man nearby – your neighbour. With nothing else to do, he offered his help.

“Excuse me, do you need a hand with these? I’m Lyney, by the way.” As he introduced himself, he stuck his hand out for a handshake.
