"MUM, where are my favourite socks" I asked yelling for help. 
"And where are my tuesday undies" asked dad searching through his draws "you know I have to wear them today." 
"Just wear mondays undies, no one is going to know" replied Mum "no ones going to know you say, i'm going to know, and to wear Mondays undies pfft, that would be idiotic," Dad answered back with a streak in his voice. 

This was only the beginning of our family disaster, for the next few weeks. Things were starting to disappear and fast, with dad losing his tuesday undies, and me losing my favourite socks. Isaac then lost his favourite bow tie, while mum then lost her favorite dress. We thought we were going mental. 
"Its not like they could just hop up and run away," said Isaac. Mum suggested, that we recap our steps "When was the last time you had you items?" she said. 
we all replied, before washing day was the last time we had them. 
"So maybe its the washing machine thats caused all this drama," Mum said with a glimpse a hope in her eyes. We checked the washing machine there was… nothing with nothing to prove, I decided to put a GoPro in the machine, to watch it in action, to see if there was something suspicious really happening inside. What I didn’t realize was that the washing machine would take my GoPro too. "AHHH ITS GONE," I yelled at the top of my voice, what are we going to do. 
"Lets just give up," mum said to me. 
"Fine if that’s the best idea" I moaned.

"Morning class," greeted Miss Green. It was an ordinary day and everyone was sitting at their wooden desks with pens and pencils. By their side the sweet sound of voices filling the room brought music to my ears, I decide to listen in on Brittney's conversation with Ella OMG. 
"Last night I reached into my bag to get out my book and it wasn’t there," explained Brittney. 
"No way," replied Ella. 
That exact thing happened to me, I was sure I put it into my bag, this is a little strange, I thought to myself why where things disappearing?

Eventually the bell went and it was time to go home. I told my mum what I had witnessed at school and she was lost for words. That night I couldn't get Brittney and Ella's conversation out of my head, I grabbed my laptop out of my bag to google this mystery, as I unzipped the case I looked down only to see that there was no laptop in my bag, this is insane I decided to look in my other pocket of my bag and to my surprise my lunch box was also missing.

The sun was shining, birds singing, it seemed like an ordinary day, I walked into my class that is usually full of colour but not today, my class looked like a prison cell, 
"What happened" I gasped. 
"Don't worry kids" assured miss green. "We have a thief in our class and I am going to get to the bottom of this." 
One by one miss green started checking our bags, everyone seemed relaxed, exept for James. Miss Green made her way down the line and ames was last to be checked 
"Oh," said Miss Green looking rather lost "what is this," she asked James as she pulled out two books, a pencil case, my laptop and two class posters from James's bag.

"I was utterly shocked to say the least I am so sorry," cried James "its just that everyone has laptops or books and our class is so colourful that I wanted to take some of it home to make my house look better, the truth is that you should be happy with what you have and not want stuff from other people."

It was a monday morning. I just got woken up by my mum to get ready for school. I got out of bed and reached down for my uniform, but it wasn't there. I looked under my bed under my pillows but I couldn't find my uniform anywhere. 
"Kaidin, have you gotten in the shower yet." 
"No Mum, I cant find my uniform." 
"Well you better find it quick, or you will be going to school in your onesie."
"But Mum, I cant find it anywhere, it’s like its just disappeared."
"Oh sure, just like all your other stuff, huh Kaidin." 
I got a note to go to school with, to say that my uniform is lost and that I have to wear mufti just for today, which was a pain because every teacher I walked past asked why i'm in mufti and where my uniform is, so I just showed them the note and moved on. When I got home, I went to go grab my iPod from where I always put it, but I looked and that wasn't there either, I yelled out to my mum "Mum have you seen my iPod." 
"No but do you know where did you last put it." 
"Mum if I knew where I last put it do you think id be asking you where it is."
"Sorry just trying to help."
I thought to myself that ill try to find it later, so I run into my room to go on my PS3 but surprise surprise it’s not there 
"Mum" 
"Oh what now kaidin"
"I know you're up to mischief tell me where all my stuff is"
"kaidin do you really think I would hide your uniform away from you so you would go to school in your onesise" "Now what’s gone missing now"
"My PS3 the whole thing, the controller is here but not my HDMI cable, power cord or my Elgato" 
I really couldn't be bothered looking for all my stuff because it will take me hours so I just thought of going for a bike ride. I walk outside to get my bike and I couldnt believe it my bike had no tyres. By this time i've had enough I went up to my mum and said 
"Mum I know you’ve put all my stuff somewhere please can I have it back" 
"kaidin I have hidden your stuff away would you like to get it back"
"Yes where is it where is it where is it" 
"Right here"
My mum led me to her bedroom where my stuff was all scatterd around the room My PS3 the power cord, the HDMI and my Elgato my iPod was under her drawers and my bike tyres were under Liams bed. My uniform was in my Mums drawers 
"Okay thanks mum for hiding my stuff." 
"Thats okay ill do it again sometime hahaha yeah right"
