David a 4 year old boy is the first child and son of Mr and Mrs Friday. Mrs Friday had travelled to clear her papers as she will be finalizing her master's degree program in one one of the state Universities. David and Mr Friday were left alone in the house without any house help.
Mr Friday is an engineer in one of the television stations in his place of residence. The family lives in an estate and they also have this trusted neighbors called the "Gaius family".
The Gaius family has four children with the second being approximately David's age, they also have a maid who takes care of the kids. For the Friday's, it is not yet okay to hire or get a maid as they are just 4years into marriage.
On Sunday afternoon, Mr Friday was in the sitting room with his son watching Disneyland cartoon Network and suddenly his phone rang.
There was an emergency at the office and he is the only closeth person that can help out. He was in-between two responsibility, his son and his office. He finally got to make up his mind to keep David with his neighbors.
Carolyn took David in and kept him in the sitting room with other kids.
She went to the kitchen to prepare food while the children stay in the parlour. Within few hours later, the children were yawning, indicating hunger. She dished out the food for everyone in a big tray and everyone ate to their satisfaction.
Everyone entered the children's room to sleep after eating. Carolyn slept alongside with the children, Mr Friday was battling with the work at the office at this time.
At about 3pm the children woke up from their sleep their sleep and had to go to the yard for their children fun time. Carolyn went inside to get some chips and water for the children, when he noticed a strange hole at one corner of the kitchen, so she decided to block it. While, she was still in the act of blocking the hole. David had found a space between the iron frame gate to get out of the compound.The other children had lost focused on David as they are battling with an insect that is about to escape their trap.
David unware of what lies ahead of him as he walk in the lonely street of IVY. He has been trapped inside a Raven, a deep pit.
Carolyn was done blocking the hole and was about laying her hands on the chips and water when she heard the children shouting "Where is David"? immediately she stepped out to understand the "where is David" shout coming from.
She then realized that David is not among the children. She had to keep the children inside instructing them not to come out .She locked the door, opened the gate and rushed out to commence her search for David.
Mr Friday on the other hand, was coming back from his work place when he sighted Carolyn from afar, He quickly highlighted from the cap he was in. On getting close to Carolyn, he saw tears in her eyes and he asked why she was crying. Carolyn had no other option than to tell him what happened. Mr Friday was saddened and shocked at the same time, he had to also follow her to search for David.
David was already at a corner in the Raven crying, wishing his father or miss Carolyn could just find him.
After searching every nook and cranny, they still could not find out where David was. Then, they heard a cry that sounds like that of David.They traced it and discovered the voice was coming from the raven. Mr Friday rushed towards the raven and behold they found David sitting at one corner crying. Mr Friday didn't mind jumping inside the raven to get his son. David was finally taken out of the raven with the help of Mr Friday and Carolyn.
Mr Friday, Carolyn and David arrived their compound and all the children were so happy to see David with them. David was thoroughly washed and his clothes changed. At last David is found, said one of the kids.
Mr Friday could not contain his Joy as he dialled his wife's number to tell her about everything that happened.
