Vanishing memories.

Once upon a time in the enchanting town of Everwood, where every morning felt like a burst of sunshine, lived a cheerful girl named Maria.

Her smile was as bright as the sun itself, bringing warmth to the hearts of everyone around her.

In a cozy house with a red door and dancing flowers, Maria's day began like any other in this magical place.

Little did she know that this ordinary morning would transform into an extraordinary adventure.

Skipping to school with the exuberance of a playful breeze, Maria greeted the world with a cheerful "Good morning!"

The birds chirped in harmony, and the flowers nodded in agreement, creating a symphony of happiness that echoed through the vibrant town.

Maria loved her school, where each day brought new discoveries and playful moments with her friends during recess.

As she entered her classroom, anticipation bubbling within her, Maria's excitement took an unexpected turn.

Julie, her best friend, was conspicuously absent from her usual seat.

Maria patiently waited, the ticking of the clock echoing in her ears, hoping that Julie would arrive fashionably late.

Outside, the clouds played an intricate game of hide-and-seek with the sun, casting whimsical shadows across the room.

Yet, as minutes passed, impatience began to bubble inside Maria.

Unable to contain herself any longer, she decided to inquire about Julie's whereabouts. "Hey, have you seen Julie?" she asked her classmates, curiosity sparkling in her eyes.

To her surprise, they exchanged puzzled glances, as if Julie was a secret they were unwilling to share.

Her friend, with a perplexed expression, replied, "Is there anyone named Julie in our class?" Growing more impatient, Maria insisted, "No, really, where is Julie?".

Her friends responded with blank stares, their faces devoid of recognition, as if the very mention of Julie was foreign to them.

Confused and a bit frustrated, Maria thought they might be playing a joke on her.

"Stop joking! I'm serious," she said firmly, but the blank stares persisted.

The mystery deepened, leaving Maria on the brink of an uncharted territory where reality and imagination intertwined.

Just as the bell rang, signaling the commencement of the first class, Maria approached the teacher with a mixture of concern and confusion. "Sir?" she called out.

"Yes, Maria, what happened?" he replied, his attention now on her.

"Sir, Julie didn't come today," Maria explained.

The teacher looked at her with a furrowed brow. "Julie? Who is she, a new student?" Maria shook her head, "No, sir, Julie, who sits in the first bench."

The teacher scanned the room and, with a perplexed expression, remarked, "I guess nobody sits there. Are you all right?" Maria, though puzzled, nodded, "Yeah, I'm okay."

Little did Maria know that this ordinary day was on the verge of becoming an extraordinary adventure.

The only thing going through Maria's mind is,

I WILL DEFINITELY FIND JULIE!

I WILL DEFINITELY FIND JULIE!

I WILL DEFINITELY FIND JULIE!

" Suddenly, she remembers what happened yesterday when she met her for the last time.

The vivid memory plays like a movie in her mind – the laughter, the shared secrets, and the warmth of their friendship.

Determination fuels her as she sets out on a quest to uncover the mystery of Julie's disappearance.
