Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Max who lived in a big house with many rooms. One day, while playing hide and seek with his friends, Max found a secret gate hidden behind his bedroom desk. He opened the gate and discovered a mysterious room with a safe in it. With excitement, Max tried to open the safe but it was locked. He decided to ask his parents for help.

Max’s parents were surprised when they saw the safe, they had no idea it was there. They told Max that the room was once used as a dining room but they had forgotten all about it. They helped Max open the safe and inside they found a beautiful golden key.

Max was determined to find out where the key fit, so he set out on a journey through the house. He looked in every room and even went to the hall, but the key didn’t fit anywhere. Max was about to give up when he remembered his bed. He went back to his bedroom and tried the key in the lock of his bedside table. To his surprise, the key fit perfectly and the table opened to reveal a secret compartment filled with treasures!

Max and his parents were overjoyed at their discovery, and from that day on, Max made sure to always keep the key safe in his bedside table. And every night before he went to sleep, he would take out the key and admire the treasures inside, feeling grateful for his adventurous spirit and the memories he had made with his family.

The end.
