The bustling energy of the marketplace was a source of constant stimulation for Sofia. The vibrant colours of the spices, the chatter of the merchants, the lively music – she found it all stimulating. She strolled through the stalls, her mind filled with creative ideas for her new collection. She wanted to present her designs to her teacher, Madame Dubois.

She smiled as she walked toward Madame Dubois' stall, excited to share her new designs. She found that the stall was empty. She inquired with the other vendors and she discovered a note, tucked under a bolt of silk. She picked up the note and felt her cheeks go hot.
