As she walked into her room she heard a noise coming from the closet.

She saw the knob turn back and forth and was instantly relieved as she remembered that she always kept it locked to keep her snotty little brother out of her stuff.

Nice idea for a thread! :D

She took off her coat and flung it on the bed causing the key to fall on the wooden floors with a loud clank.

So many thoughts rushed through her mind as she wondered what could be hidden in the secret cupboard. . . . It was now or never. She could open it and inspect it before his brother returned in exactly ten minutes.
