Here's Part 2 of THE SCROLL OF GREATNESS. Enjoy!

THE SCROLL OF GREATNESS
A Sherlock Hong Story
by Don Bosco
[part 2]
Then, across the street, in front of the mansion, I saw a man peel off the big yellow notice that was stuck on the wall.
The exhibition would be over soon!
I looked around frantically. Should I keep waiting for Aisha? Or would she understand if I went in on my own?
For so many nights I had been dreaming about the Scroll of Greatness. Would I miss my chance to examine it?
The man was closing the door just as I made up my mind.
“No!” I yelled. “Wait!”
I dashed across the street, squeezing my way between a cart and some coolies, but I was too late, he didn’t notice me.
I banged on the door. “Please, just for a few minutes, let me see the Scroll!”
I held my breath and listened, hoping that he would come back and let me in.
