When we were going to a 5-star restaurant with gleaming lights, we stepped carefully on the rocky pavement. As we entered, I caught the sudden smell of butter hanging in the air.

The Forgotten Wish
Under the luminous glow of the midnight moon, Amy crept into the library, her eyes searching for something to spark her adventurous spirit. It had been too long since she’d been on a quest, and the library, where her last adventure had ended, seemed the perfect place to rebuild that confidence.

A Duck’s Disaster – Breadcrumbs, Quakes, and a Broken Home

She was constantly seeing his movements, without sensing that he had approached near her to sit on a chair next to Amara’s. She felt her cheeks blushing and an adrenaline rush. She couldn’t focus on her notebook anymore, so she decided to use this opportunity and started a conversation with him.

Amara thought she was alone in the school library when she heard a soft thud behind her. Turning around, she saw an old woman shrouded with wrinkles. Amara was taken aback. The woman’s ornate floor length gown and cape suggested that she was from ancient times. She also bore a striking resemblance to Amara.
