The Lost Thing

A boy finds a strange big robot-like creature by the beach which I think is a mixture of a crab and an octopus. He then realises that the 'thing' is lost but ''nobody else seems to notice that it was there'' because ''they're all too busy doing other stuff.'' I think there are a lot of lost things around us but we just don't seem to notice as we are all too busy doing other stuff. But if you take a look around you might find something that you never noticed before. Also, people tend to notice what is lost after losing the thing.
