Whose Notebook Is It?

Eva is new in town. It is Saturday morning. She sits by the window in Tom’s bakery. There are people at the other tables, but Eva is alone. She has a coffee and a warm bread roll.

There is a red notebook on the chair next to her. Eva takes it to Tom. “Is this yours?” she asks. “No,” he says. “Look inside. Maybe there is a name.”

The first page has the name Lily. There is no address or phone number. The next pages have drawings: a cat, a blue bridge and a green bicycle. A red scarf is on the bicycle.

Eva shows Tom the drawing of the bicycle. “Do you know Lily?” she asks. Tom looks at the page. “No, but I know that bicycle. A young man brings our eggs on it.” “Does he come today?” Eva asks.

Before Tom can answer, a bicycle stops outside. Eva looks up. It is green. There is a red scarf on it. She takes the notebook and goes to the door.
