Alone at Universal Studios(part 3)

“ Excuse me, do you know where Panda Exp-” I said incomprehensibly. The worker stopped me and asked. “Sorry, could you say it again?” 

        I took a deep breath. “Do you know where Panda Express is, my parents are there. I lost them.” Telling her made tears rain from my eyes. The worker nodded and told me. 

   “Come with me.” as she guided me to Panda Express. My heart slowed down and I followed her.

   When we arrived, I instantly ran inside finding my parents at a table near the back. My tears stopped falling and my face started to become arid. My family noticed me as I was running over. 

   “Where have you been? ” My mom questioned, sighing in relief. 

   “I got distracted, so I lost you. ” I replied. My mom continued. 

   “Next time stay with us, we’ve been looking for you.” I nodded as I sat down. I also thought. “I’ve never been this happy with my family.” 

   After that moment, my parents came to an agreement to buy me a phone. I am happy since I got a phone, but also, I am more cautious when I’m in an immense crowd.

 Plus, I was turning my head constantly, looking at the places around us, filling up with more excitement.

    “After we eat, where do you want to go? “ I asked my brothers. 

    “I don’t know yet,” Bill said sounding annoyed. He continued. “We’ll find out later.” Soon, my family got close to Panda Express and was heading inside. But I had stopped following them since my eyes had caught a mini shop, selling many items. I stared at the store and the crowd there. I was curious about why dozens of people were there, so I walked over to check the shop out. 

    My eyes glowed, I was surprised by all the things there that I wanted: games, toys, and clothing. My eyes stared at the items as I listened to the shop owner talk about the items. This made me feel like I was in heaven. I wanted one of the items so I turned my head, trying to find my dad. My mouth dropped in shock. All I could see was a huge crowd full of unfamiliar faces behind me. My heart raced faster. Instantaneously, I looked for an opening in the crowd and squeezed my way out. But it panicked me more that it felt like me finding the edge of the crowd would be eternal. Desperately, I checked around trying to find my family. But then I had an idea. “I could look for Panda Express since my parents said we’re going there.”  I decided to ask a worker for where it is. But there were no workers in sight.  My heart raced even faster, my eyes began to water. Finally, my eyes caught a worker. I was relieved. I took a breath. 

Alone at Universal Studios (part 1)

 It was a scorching hot summer day; my family and I were at Universal Studios. I was 7 years old at the time. For years, I’ve been irking my parents by asking for a phone.  I was always trying to persuade my parents to buy one. I used to always watch my brothers play games on their phone which I was eager to try. 

  “What ride are we going on now?” I asked eagerly. My dad turned his head back to me. “We’re not going on a ride,” he informed me.  “We’re going to look around for food.” I was famished from the hot day. I continuously had sweat running down, it was like rain was coming down from a cloud. My parents were checking the restaurants around us. “What do you want to eat?” my mom asked, turning her head back to us.  We were all silent but then Max, my brother mentioned.

   “There’s Panda Express, “ pointing to the storefront across from us.

Bill, my oldest brother, and I looked at each other and nodded. Soon, we were heading to Panda Express.
