3 Minute Drill

The boy was enthralled with the presents underneath the Christmas tree. He had woken up super early that morning to finally be able to open his presents! He had waited so long for this day to come, the past month had felt like three years. He had tried to peek at his presents, but since his mom knew that he would probably be searching for them when she was at work, she had hidden them in a special hiding spot. One where he would never even think of. He still tried to look day in and day out. Still he found nothing! He thought they may have been under the bed, or even in the porch but he was dead wrong. 

A couple days later he was getting really frusterated that he couldn't find a single thing until... a sizzling sound came out from the locked gun cabinent. He thought to himself,"What could possibly make that noise?" He peered into the cabinet and saw... Nothing.. It was just some kind of tool of his dad's. Day after day, he found nothing, so he thought maybe he hadn't gotten any. He was quite upset.

 He went up to his parents and asked "Why didn't you guys get me any presents?"

They stared at each other and knew he had been searching for quite a while. His mother had said he would have to look much harder and not to worry because he got gifts. He was relieved, so he just stpped looking for them and waited until the day of Christmas.

That day finally came! He was so exciting, you could say he was jumping off the walls. He ran into his parents room to wake them up, but they weren't there. So he ran up stairs and was calling for them but no one answered. He was not to worry because he thought they may have went up town to maybe get some breakfast. 

There was knocking on his door, so he answered. It was the police... 
  he answer the door carfully and the police man asked if his parents were there and he said no. 
 "why are you looking for them," he asked
 the police man said yes and took him to the kitchen and he told the boy that they found his parents car in the lake but they do not know were his parents were.the man wanted to know if he had a place to stay.
