Mission 'Le chocolat'

" O yes! She's not home! She'll definitely take minimum 3 hours to come back. Now is our chance!"
 We were a team, atleast in such cases. It was as if  we'd waited for this opportunity since eternity. Our plan was set. My 7 year old Sherlock Holmes knew all the nooks and corners of the home. He knew all the places where she could have hidden that treasure.
Like all typical mothers, our mother thought it's not good for our health. So with all our arms which consisted of a torch, a little stool and a small bag, we headed towards the most probable area where our treasure could be found. We felt no less than FBI agents. Deftly he kept the stool above the shelf and mounted over it to reach the top shelf of the closed almirah. And I am made to grasp the stool tightly.
" Yayyy! WE DID IT!" The eureka moment, when my brother screamed at the top of his voice on having discovered the treasure of chocolates in a brown packet.
As soon as he came down, we engorged on it voraciously without leaving any trace of its existence.
We were absolutely full!
We cleaned the area so skillfully like nothing happened. When she came back we acted like we were those innocent kids who always did as Momma said!!
But she wondered why we were smiling so much.
Perhaps she knew or she didn't. But we were all smiles that our Mission 'Le chocolat' was finally accomplished!
