I Come Home From Work
And as I'm driving up the hill and approach my condo community, I find a small child wandering around in a diaper with no shirt or shoes on and it's 45 Degrees here in St.Louis.. I got out of my vehicle and I could tell he maybe had a disorder of some kind, so I followed him and called 911 for assistance.. I asked him if he could tell me where he lived, but he kept walking away.. Finally, I see him round the corner and disappear from my sight.. I'm walking around talking to 911 and see a sliding glass door open with the curtain covering it and I knock on their door.. A woman comes to the door looking totally strung out with the kid following behind her.. I explained I found her child wandering around the street barely dressed with no shoes or shirt on with it being as chilly as it is out.. She thanked me and told me her son is Autistic and he likes to wander off, which is not cool.. Finally, I told 911 the child has been reunited and at least there was a happy ending.. Nowadays, kids are being abducted left & right and that's the last thing I needed to see after working all night and come home to this.. I'm not a parent and can only imagine how a parent must feel when their child disappears.. 🤔
