This is my first attempt at writing a story like this, so sorry for any mistakes or anything.
It was morning in Big Green, and Mystique Sonia was lying in bed, waking up slowly. She wiped the sleep from her eyes and sat up, propping herself up against her pillow. She had had the most vivid dream last night, and was thinking about it right now. It had seemed so real, she actually wondered it if had been. She dreamt she had heard her door creak open and someone quickly ran over and placed a letter in an envelope into a drawer in her dressing table before running back out. She hadn't seen who, as it was dark and happened so fast. What an odd dream!
Sonia decided to get dressed. She certainly didn't want Mr. NoHands to get mad at her again! She looked across at Yaksha, who was fast asleep on her bed. Mr. NoHands never shouted at him! Sonia started at herself in her mirror as she got dressed. Each day she looked the same, in her grey strapless dress with the skull motif, her red trousers and her black shoes, yet was still considered the most beautiful girl in Big Green. Sonia smiled at how she knew this, as she ran a comb through her short black hair. Now just one last thing to do before she was ready.
She opened her dressing table drawers to look for her blue lipgloss. She wouldn't be ready for briefing without being ready herself. She began to look through all the drawers, worried she'd lost it, when she spotted something which made her gasp. It was an envelope! A red envelope with writing on the front in glitter gold gel pen. It made her heart flutter inside her chest. What she had "dreamt" had actually happened after all!
She opened the envelope and slid out the card inside. On the front it was patterned with butterflies, all sorts of colours. She opened it and began to read what was inside.
To the most beautiful girl in all of Hidden Kingdom
Every time I see you, you take my breath away!
I hope I will soon be able to say
Who I am, and make your day
More special gifts for you are on the way.
From,
You-don't-know-who!
Sonia felt weak at the knees, and nearly fell over. Luckily, Yaksha, who had now woken up, caught her just in time. This was so amazing! Sonia blushed very bright red at the thought she had a secret admirer. But who was he? There were loads of men in Big Green. It could be anyone! She was determined to find out. So she got to her feet and made her way to the briefing room.
In the briefing room, Mr. NoHands looked irritated at Sonia being late.
"Mystique Sonia, you're late!" He barked, clearly annoyed. But Sonia was too happy to really care.
"Tell me something I don't know." She replied cockily, "Like who sent me this?" She added, holding up the card.
"That's no excuse to be late, Sonia!" He yelled, irritated at how cocky she was being. He hated yelling at anyone really, but he had to to get his point across. Plus, it really did annoy him when he was ready and others weren't.
"What Sonia's card about?" Jumpy asked, looking curious.
Sonia's cheeks flushed pink. "It's a card from my secret admirer!" She exclaimed cheerily.
"Who sent card?" Jumpy questioned.
"It's a secret admirer, Jumpy, she doesn't know." Mighty Ray replied rudely.
Sonia slapped him with her long blue tongue. "There's no need to be rude, Jumpy was asking because he didn't know. And nor do I. Who did send me the card?" Sonia replied, a curious expression appearing on her face.
Who sent Sonia the card? Will she find out? Will there be more gifts from her secret admirer?
