Huh? Wasn’t Mom standing right in front of me a second ago? She probably just walked into another aisle for a moment that’s all. Here, let me check. Um… she doesn’t seem to be anywhere in the store. Where is she? I mean, where could she go in a supermarket? How come there aren’t any other adults around? Wait, what’s going on? Is this a dream? Is this some kind of joke? No, it’s real. Well then, what’s the explanation? How is it even possible to just vanish in thin air like that? No, no, no, no, no… this can’t be happening. Who’s going to take care of me now? I’m just a kid. This is so unfair! How could they all just leave us like this? Will that little kid over there stop crying! What am I going to do? Oh my god, what about Dad? This can’t be happening, they’re all just… gone.
