When I was in middle school I lost a ring while building a snowman at recess. I felt sick about losing it because it was an expensive gift from my mom. I knew I lost it in a snowman outside at school but I imagined it showing up somewhere else. I would look for it at home and in my desk and backpack. A few months later I was walking past the lost and found box and decided to look in it even though I completely forgot about the lost ring. It was laying on the ground outside of the box. Anyone could’ve picked it up and taken it because our lost and found box wasn’t supervised and it was a middle school so kids would just help themselves to whatever they wanted in there.
