I was in junior high and my mother wanted me to take the bus home. Unfortunately the bus didn't come for an hour. I hated school because I was unpopular and waiting so much was a torture because the bullies found me right away. Anyhow I figured I could walk home and still get there in a timely fashion and not have to sit and listen to the taunts and teasings of the other kids. We lived several miles out of town and you had to walk through several orange groves to get where I lived. I started out and got lost and was really afraid. A young child who was playing saw me crying and invited me home after I said I was lost. I called my mom and played with his pet rats until she came for me, but now I realize how dangerous it was to just set off on my own through such a rural, unpopulated area.
