Cassie loved puzzles, especially those that depicted snowflakes and winter scenery. They reminded her of her childhood, when she used to spend hours with her family, building snowmen and making snow angels. But today, she could see that some pieces were missing as she always started with the outer edges, and she could tell some were definitely not there. She searched frantically through the puzzle pieces spread out on the table.
She chose this particular puzzle out of the remaining puzzles as she hoped to win the trophy for the first to complete their puzzle and shellac it to hang it on the wall. The picture on the puzzle was of a body outline surrounded by passports, an umbrella, and a gaming controller. It wasn’t her favorite type of puzzle, but she was determined to win. She gave up and returned to her book to read since she could not win the contest with missing pieces. She was glad she found it out before getting the whole puzzle together.
