Myah flinched, she stood outside of the convention center. Her parents sat in a small car, waiting for her to go on without them. She picked at her fingernails, a sure sign that she was nervous. How could she not be though? She was new on the forum, so no one would know her, she was also a kid. A kid in a place full of adults, her mother and father had left without her noticing so she was definitely alone. How would she defend herself? You got this, eye of Merlot(my pet kitten) She punched the air, and nodded to herself. "I got this." She whispered, trudging forwards and into the convention.
Bad idea, bad idea...I should have went with mom, at least then I would have gotten a candy bar. She started to bite the inside of her cheeks, where were all the people? She thought she heard talking in another section, but she wasn't sure. She was lost, she didn't know where to go and she couldn't see anyone. She made her way through empty stands, hoping to find someone and closing her eyes, hoping to hit a wall. Maybe she could knock herself out. Then she would get to go home early. She sighed, opening one eye and turning to scope out her surroundings. She would have to ask for directions, and if she learned anything from her mom, asking directions was a last resort. "If only dad were here, he could start a conversation with a stranger."
So she started walking, walking towards the voices and away from the silence. So much fun.
