Lost

She glanced around like a timid rabbit, her eyes searching for something she couldn't spot. Her lips trembled a little as the tears tried to break free. With a lost look, she moved a few paces to and fro in quite a confused state.

A lady walking on the sidewalk tapped on her shoulder and asked sympathetically, "Any problem? Are you lost?"

She just nodded. She must really have looked stupid. The grown ups don't get lost on the way.

"Where do you want to go?" the lady asked gently.

"On." she said in a voice devoid of a tone and stared helplessly into her eyes.

With one alarming look at her, the lady hurried away from her as fast as possible.
