A Scene #2: Bag

On Saturday November 15 2014, at exactly 14:20 CET, I walked into the city library (51°55’15.9″N, 4°29’18.8″E), Centrale Bibliotheek, Hoogstraat 110, Rotterdam), carrying a black cotton bag.
At the center of the hall I stopped walking and checked the bag and all the pockets of my cloths. Whatever I was looking for, I did not find it.
I waited a few seconds. Then once more I thoroughly checked the bag and my pockets. I turned around, walked back to the door (hastily) and left the building.

A Scene #1

On Saturday October 11 2014, I walked on the Bergweg (on the right site) in the direction of the Gordelweg, carrying a plastic bag with oranges. At exactly 14:20 CET, I passed the corner of the Zaagmolenstraat (51°56’08.6″N, 4°28’35.2″E), in front of nr 184 A, and at that exact moment the bag tore and the oranges spread over the pavement.
I then gathered the oranges, put them in another plastic bag and walked on in the same direction.
