THE SECRET MAP
Once, in a land of rolling hills, lived a peocock named Molly and her energetic little joey. They weren't ordinary birds; hey were explorers. Molly held a weathered, golden-brown map - a precious gift from joey's father -that supposedly led to a ;egendry secreat treasure.
One afternoon, their journey led them to a village yhat was eerily silent. Just as they stepped into the square, the clouds turned charcoal grey and a heavy down pour began. Seeking shelter, they called out into the rain. From the shadows of a small cottage, a young boy named AARAV, carrying a flikering lantern.
"Come inside where it's dry!" Aarav shouted over the thunder.
Inside his cozy home, Aarav noticed the map. His eyes widened. "Is that a treasure map? Iv'e I have studied legends of this area. Could I... join you guys?"
Molly and joey shared a look and smiled. Of cource, "Molly cirped. "The more the merrier!"
