One morning, I was getting ready for school when I realized my backpack was missing. I searched everywhere under the bed, behind the door, and even in the kitchen but it was gone. Just when I started to panic, I found a note on my desk that said, “Gone on vacation. Be back soon.”
At first, I thought it was a joke, but then I noticed small clues around the house, like tiny footprints and missing snacks. It felt like my backpack had really decided to take a break from carrying my heavy books. A few days later, it returned quietly to its usual place, as if nothing had happened. Since then, I always check carefully in case it plans another unexpected trip. Shutdown123
