The Brown Box

The Brown Box

I was going for a walk in the dark, stormy and raining night. I heard howling noises coming from behind me. I tripped and landed on the cold, wet pavement. I hit my knee really hard. I looked ahead, and saw a brown box. I picked it up, and went home quickly. When I got home, I opened the box slowly. I found an iPod Nano Chromatic! It was green, and had a white shiny dial. It had a new looking screen and grey outlining the iPod . That night, I couldn’t sleep. I was wondering what I should do with it. I finally fell asleep at 1:00 AM and woke up at 6:04 am. I got dressed then went to have some breakfast. I was really wondering what to do with the new iPod. I found it near the school, so maybe I should return it to the office. But at the same time, maybe I should keep it.

I remember when I was 8 years old, and I lost my $100 bill I had gotten on my birthday. It was in my jacket pocket, and when I took it off, I left it on the front step. When I woke up, I ran right to the front step. When I got there, there was the jacket, with no bill in the pocket. I was so upset. I stood there crying. Then an elderly man came up to the front step and handed me a bill. He said, “This yours?” I nodded and said thank you! He said, No problem!”

So I decided I would return it to the office. Mrs. Mohan made an announcement and a little boy came in with a teacher. She came to me and said, “where did you find it?!?” I replied, “”I was going for a walk and found a brown box.” He stopped me and said “I was going for a walk to! I must have dropped it! Thank you for returning it! Bye!” he left, then I knew I had made the right decision. I think I made the right choice.
