She said she had a gift for William and she said she would give it to him the next day. When William got home from school the next day he started walking back and forth then he started running up the stairs and Mrs. Philips said “ Wait I want to be with you when you see the present “ so William stopped and waited for her to catch up to him. When they got to the attic he saw the present he was surprised by what he saw it was a castle. Mrs. Philips said “ Do you want a tour “ William said “ok” Mrs. Philips said “ Lets start with the drawbridge. So she taught him everything about the castle and then let him play with it for a while. His mom was talking to him about the pin and pearl and if he had seen them then his mom said that the person who fixed the furnace probably took them.
