ROUGH COPY
The time I got lost when I was a
kid was very scary. I remember that I was out shopping with my mother. She was
looking at clothes, and I wandered away. I saw her across the store and walked
over to her. When I got next to her, I realized that this person was not my
mother. It was a stranger. I ran around the store yelling for her. She heard me
and came right over. She had been looking for me, too. When my mother finally
found me, she looked very relieved. My fear left me as she took my hand and we left
the store together. That was a scary moment for me.
