It was my twelfth birthday, and what I really wanted most was a new bicycle. But I knew that my family couldn't afford one, so I settled for a bedside table with lockable drawers, safe places to keep my private stuff.
We went to the charity shop where we found an old dark one. It didn't look too cool, but I thought that I would paint it to make it look better.
After we took it home, I was getting ready to paint it. When I pulled the drawers out, I felt something stuck to the back of a drawer. I reached in the drawer all the way, and guess what? A sealed bag with some papers was in it.
When I opened the bag, I realized that the papers were official documents. And, wrapped in them was a bunch of ten and twenty dollar bills! Talk about finding a treasure! And on my birthday!
"Is this some kind of joke?" I said aloud. I went ahead and read the papers, and they turned oul to be a will. Some old lady was leaving her savings for her son and grandchildren.
I was going crazy. Was I the luckiest twelve-year-old ever? With this money I could buy the coolest bicycle. Who knows?
I began counting. When I reached a thousand dollars, my mother was knocking on my bedroom door. I quickly closed the drawer with the money in it.
"Do you want some help? Is everything all right?" she asked.
No, everything was not right. Actually, my stomach was growling(低吼).
"I'm okay," I lied.
When my mother left my room, I lay on my bed, starting thinking. What a dilemma(窘境)! I wished there were someone I could talk with. Could I keep it and get all kinds of stuff for me and my family? It wouldn't be too bad for me to keep it, if I shared it… right? Thoughts ran through my mind. But I really didn't need someone else to give me the answer.
