The Lost Pen

I slowly opened my eyes and found myself in a different world. Initially, I did not recognise my identity, but soon I realised I was a pen. I suspected I was in a country called China because there was a paper sticking to me when I woke up, stating "Made in China." Then, I was picked up by a giant. I later learned that these giants were called human beings. She picked me up and placed me in a box. Before being placed in the box, I caught a glimpse of myself in a mirror and noticed I was quite good-looking. I was also purple in colour.

Inside the box, I found many pens that looked identical to me, and some pens were even the same colour as me. I was shocked for a while, but then I forgot about it. Soon, I was placed on a moving object, and everything was shaky. Eventually, we reached our destination. Along the way, I made many friends, including one who looked just like me.

Then, a boy picked me up and placed me in a cupboard with some of my friends. I suspected I was in a different country, and I was right. I was in a country named Nepal, in a place called Stationery. Soon after, a girl rushed in, asking for a pen. She glanced at me and pointed to me. I was chosen to go with her. She seemed to be in a hurry, and after handing over 100 rupees, she put me in her pocket. She started running frantically, and then she dropped me. I watched her run until everything went black.
