### **The Lost Key**
Last weekend, I **decided** to clean my room. I **hadn’t cleaned** it for weeks, so it was quite messy. As I **was organizing** my desk, I **found** an old key. I **had forgotten** where it came from, but it **looked** familiar.
I **remembered** that a few months ago, I **had bought** a small lockbox to store some important documents. At the time, I **had put** the key in a safe place, but I **couldn’t recall** where. Now, after finding the key, I **realized** I **had misplaced** the lockbox too.
I **searched** everywhere—under the bed, in the closet, and even in the kitchen drawers. Finally, I **found** the lockbox hidden behind some books on the shelf. I **had placed** it there when I **had moved** to this apartment a year ago.
When I **opened** the lockbox, I **discovered** some old photos and letters. I **hadn’t seen** them in years, and they **brought** back so many memories. It **was** a nostalgic moment, and I **felt** grateful for finding the key and the lockbox.
