# Chapter 2
While unpacking and settling into my room, I found a hidden nook behind a loose baseboard. Inside was an old music box with a tiny ballerina dancer.
Also tucked inside the music box was a picture of two girls, smiling and looking so happy. The older girl looked about nineteen, maybe twenty, and the younger girl looked like she was no more than sixteen. On the back of the picture, someone had written: What happened to you?
After reading those words, a sudden sense of sadness washed over me, as if all the happiness had been sucked right out of the room.
Along with the photo, there was a little journal inside the music box. I opened it and was just about to start reading when my little brother, Bobby, burst into my room, interrupting me as usual.
"Mom said dinner is ready!" Bobby shouted before running off.
I quickly hid the music box under my pillow. Making sure everything was put back in place, I headed downstairs to join my family for dinner.
