desperation


 
 
She’s got to be here somewhere.

“Mama? Mama?!!”

Who are all these people? Where’s my mommy?! What happened? Where am I? Oooh there she is… I thought. Oh where is my mommy?
 
"Mommy?!!"

  8. You have the voice down. Always makes me on edge. I've been the lost one AND lost one. Not fun either way!

  13. I hate to see a lost kid. Although my brother was quite the hider: At mall's he would jump up with the mannequins, adopt a pose, and stand there frozen while my mother went into a panic.
