How Big Is This Store?!
I was shopping in a grocery store when I heard this.
Woman’s Voice: “Hannah? Hannah? HANNAH!”
She sounded panic-stricken. I was about to approach her when I saw the store’s manager walking up to her, so I backed off and eavesdropped.
Manager: “What’s the matter, ma’am?”
Woman: “My little girl! She was right beside me, and now she’s missing! Please help me!”
Manager: “Don’t worry, ma’am. We’ll do everything we can to find her.”
Shortly afterward, the store’s doors were locked, and an announcement came over the PA to be on the lookout for a six-year-old girl matching [description]. The mother grew increasingly hysterical, sobbing that her daughter must have been kidnapped. Then, five minutes later…
Woman: “HANNAH! OH, THANK GOD!”
She hugged her daughter, and all was well… until five minutes after THAT:
Woman: “HANNAH! WHERE ARE YOU? SOMEONE HELP ME! MY DAUGHTER’S GONE!” *More hysterical sobbing*
I’m a mother myself, and I know how difficult it can be to keep an eye on small kids, but losing your little girl twice in one hour?
