The Mystery of the Missing Masterpiece

My name is Peyton. My brother, Oakley, is always annoying me! He’s only six, but it’s too much.

He makes silly faces, playing loud games with Archer. "No!" he shouts, even when I ask nicely.

Then he tried to feed Fluffy, my bunny, spilling water everywhere. Splash! So messy.

But today, something was really wrong. My special rainbow unicorn drawing was gone! My masterpiece!

I looked under my bed, in my closet, everywhere! Where could my beautiful drawing be?

Then, near my rug, I saw it. A tiny, bright blue feather. What was this doing here?

Oakley was playing with colorful feathers this morning. He was being so loud. Hmm, a clue!

I found Oakley and Archer, glued to their game. "Have you seen my drawing?" I asked.

Oakley just stuck out his tongue and pointed towards the kitchen. So annoying! But I followed.

In the kitchen, a trail of spilled water led to the back door. Fluffy’s water bowl was empty.

Outside, a muddy paw print. Not Fluffy's. It looked like a dog's, but we don't have a dog.

Oakley always follows me outside. He loves to "help" me with everything, everywhere I go.
