Panic Ensues
I was at a birthday party for my neighbor’s daughter. They lived on a big farm, so there was plenty of space to hide. We all agreed to only hide in the barn and on the main plot, and not the meadow behind it. It only took the daughter about 15 minutes to find me and the other kids invited to the party,
Except Toby. Soon, we started to panic. By this time, it was about 5:30 PM and we were all getting ready to go home, but Toby was nowhere to be found. After Toby wasn’t found, Toby’s parents called 9-1-1 and a search squad was sent out. The next morning, I woke up to my parents telling me, in a tone of relief,
That Toby was found. Apparently, Toby got lost in the meadow and was found eight hours later standing on the side of a road that was four MILES away. 18 years later, we bring this story up and just laugh our guts out about it. He now has his masters degree in mechanical engineering. hotheadeduser
