Once upon a time, there were three best friends - Anna, Peter and Sarah. They were always together. One day in school, just as the bell rang, the children ran out of their classes and screamed: “Yay!” Summer holidays had started.”

Everyone rushed to their buses and went home. Anna, Peter and Sarah wanted to go somewhere together.

“Let’s go to some place where the birds sing and there is greenery,” said Peter. Anna and her friends went home.

The next day, Anna called her friends. “Peter, Sarah, let’s go to my aunt’s house. There is a lot of greenery and the birds will sing for us every morning. There are lots of mysteries which we can find there.”

Sarah and Peter chuckled, “Okay, we will come.”

The next day, they packed their bags and went in their car to Anna’s aunt’s house. Peter peeped out of the window after a while to check if they had reached their destination.

As he looked, he screamed: “Yay! We reached our destination. ”

“Peter, please sit down”, said Anna’s father.

Peter sat down quietly and Anna and Sarah laughed.The car stopped and they stepped outside. Anna kissed her dad goodbye and she stepped inside the house with her friends as Aunt Susie greeted them .
“Go and wash your face, we have cake for dinner.”

“Yay!” screamed Anna, Peter and Sarah. They went to wash their faces and came down in their pajamas. They ate the cake and slept.

The next day, Anna and her friends went to play with their blue ball. Peter threw the ball so hard that it fell in a puddle. Anna ran to the ball and saw a cave.

“Children, dinner is in ten minutes,” said Aunt Susie. Anna said to her friends, “Let’s go the cave at midnight. We will explore the place and come back home before morning.”

Sarah and Peter nodded as they went home to eat dinner and sleep.

At midnight, Sarah and her friends quietly climbed down the stairs and went to the cave. After some time, in the middle of nowhere, a forest appeared. They saw an abandoned house. They went inside and saw something like a ghost. They got so scared that they pushed the ghost and spotted a person. They ran to Aunt Susie and complained to her. She called the police.

The police caught the person and said to the children, “You caught a thief. You are very brave, children.”

Anna and her friends giggled. They really were very brave.
