When Crystal woke up next day it was already noon. She got up, streched her arms and went downstairs.
Her parents weren't there, just as she had expected, probably doing the shopping or just having a walk. So she got herself some food and started to eat a very large breakfast since she was pretty hungry-no breakfast, no second breakfast, she wondered why she was still alive. She wasn't that kind of Hobbit who would starve if he (or she) didn't have anything to eat for two hours but still if she could get something she ate it.
After finishing the breakfast she went outside to have a look in the letter box.
"Hm...let's see...one for dad, one for mum, another one for dad, one for me, one for...hang on, one for ME??? Who would write a letter to ME???"
She opened it hastily and read:
Greetings
You are invited to Olo Proudfoots house, for lunch and discussion. About you know what.
Signed
Olo
"Oops" she though "that's in about five minutes...I'd better go!" She wrote a little message for her parents and ran down the street.
