It was a Saturday. On top of that, there was a
sale at Merry Shopping Center. The crowd there
was quite huge. Karen told her little sister to
hold onto her hand as they entered the shopping
center. Tomorrow was their mother's birthday.
Karen and her sister went up the escalator to
the third floor where there were shops selling
brooches and rings. Karen was so engrossed in
looking at the lovely brooches that she simply
forgot all about her little sister. When she
finally chose one and turned around, she was
shocked to discover that her sister was missing.
She panicked. Calling out her sister's name,
Karen went searching all over the third floor.
She started to cry when her sister did not
respond to her calls. She looked at the
escalator and a horrible thought went through
her head. "No, please don't let that happen,"
she prayed in her heart. Suddenly, she heard a
familiar voice behind her. She turned around and
to her relief, there was her sister, holding an
ice cream in one hand and holding out another to
Karen. Athererah wept for joy and hugged her
sister. The lady beside the little girl said
that she found her wandering about crying and
bought her an ice cream. she asked for one for
her sister ! She then saw Karen from afar and
led the lady to her. Karen thanked the lady and
went home with her sister, both with an ice
cream each in their hands. |
