When Jamie heard a noise in the garden, he got up to look out of the window. It wasn't dawn yet, but he was able to recognize single things. However, he didn't see anything unusual. Despite that, Jamie had a hunch that there is something going on.
The boy left his room walking on his toes in order not to wake up the others. He reached the front door and went out. It was warm outside. He didn't put on his shoes and was walking through the grass on bare feet. Initially, he neither heard nor saw anything noticeable. But no sooner did he want to come back, when he heard a loud noise, as if something heavy fell down. And a man's voice. It was too low for Jamie to recognize it but he knew it can't be a burglar.
Jamie followed the place where the noise came from. Even though it couldn't be a burglar Jamie's heart was beating fast.
'It must be here' whispered Jamie, looking at the bush and he looked through the leaves. He saw his father doing something with a bicycle which Jamie hasn't seen before.
'It must be a present for me' he said. He couldn't believe what he saw. He would like to have a ride straightaway but he knew it wasn't possible. He came back to his bed but he couldn't sleep anymore. He was looking forward to a birthday party.
