The Lost Voice

It was a quiet evening when Lily was sitting in her room, reading a book. Suddenly, she heard a soft sound. "Hello... is anyone there?" Lily looked around but couldn’t see anyone. She was the only one at home. Confused, she stood up and listened carefully. The voice came again, this time clearer. "Help me!"

Lily's heart raced. The voice sounded like it was coming from the wall! She pressed her ear to the cold surface, trying to hear better. To her surprise, she noticed a small crack in the wall. The voice was definitely coming from there.

Without wasting time, Lily grabbed a small hammer from her toolbox and gently tapped on the crack. The wall cracked open a little, and inside, she found a small, dusty box. When she opened the box, there was a tiny note that read, “Thank you for finding me.”

Lily was amazed. There was no one around, but the voice had led her to this mysterious box. She decided to keep the box safe, wondering who had left it and why it was hidden in her wall.
