PaginePaginepagineapp.comOn Saturday morning, Marcus's bike was not in the driveway.
He looked all around the yard, but it was gone.
Marcus remembered he had left it by the mailbox the night before.
He knocked on Mrs. Patel's door next door.
"I put your bike in my garage," she said. "It looked like rain."
Marcus thanked her and wheeled the bike home.
From then on, he always put his bike away at night.
