                  He ran up to his room and slammed the door, ignoring the
            calls from his parents. He threw books off the shelf. Everything that
            is connected to his wonderful memories was ripped apart. He
            punched the wall with anger, and grabbed his teddy bear before
            he tumbled into bed.

                  “You know what, teddy? When I was younger, I was very
            proud of my family. Everyone was jealous of me since I had so
            much love and care. But now, everything has changed. They don’t

            anymore,” answered Miss Colleen. “I warned you, Matthew and
            Nova,” and all of a sudden, the three of them were back in the living
            room again. Mr. and Mrs. Brown thanked Miss Colleen. What they
            have learned totally changed their mindset.
                  Without wasting time, they started to search for Eddie, their
            little angel. Fortunately, they remembered that he loved having
