oh yeah just remembered this
when i was 11, i just moved to denver and was unfamiliar with the area
i took the bus home from school everyday, and i sorta remembered which road to take and where to turn to get to school from home and vice versa. and one day the weather was extra nice and inviting, so me being my badass self, i tried to walk home with some friends instead of taking the bus. for the first bit we all walked the same road but then one by one, we all split up went our own way. i must have made the wrong turn somewhere, but i didn't realize until it was way too late. i kept walking and started thinking, i should be turning to this street; but i'm not seeing it. i just kept walking. the worry was brewing inside me because it shouldn't take this long to walk home, but i tried to be optimistic; i tried not to think about the unthinkable. but as i walked i just did not see any landmarks i associated with my house. then it dawned on me- i was lost. i didn't panic, because i saw a busy intersection up ahead. i made my way to it. and wow, it was colorado boulevard, pretty darn far from my house. THEN i started panicking. i started asking people for a ride home and everything. eventually this nice lady drove me home.
thinking back, it could have been some guy that offered to drive me home but took me to his basement or something, so sketchy. when i got home parents didn't even ask why i was late and they still don't know about it, ha
