... I was dumbstruck for a moment. Thinking if I had left it that way. But then I snapped out of it. Immediately going to my table where I left my treasure.
'! It's here… oh gosh… For a moment I thought someone could have stolen it…'
But that couldn't have been. Since I heard the song while coming here.
'... Still. Why do I feel like someone was here… Hm?'
I took the tiny coffer, noticing that underneath… A piece of paper, folded in half lay hidden by its size.
'... Who…' — I swallowed nervously. Because… Although there was someone I wished it could be from, the possibility of it being from someone undesirable else was there too.
Nonetheless, I would still need to read it to know. And thankfully… My heart didn't drop from fright but elevated in flutters by merely reading the first few words.
