the shopping, and I straight ran to the toys department. All these were just wonderful, even if I had enough
of them at home, I always wanted new toys. When my mother arrived, I said,
« Mum please can I have this toy ? it is just too fantastic. »
« No! Now come with me we have to finish shopping or we will be late for dinner.» she said.
«Oh please mum this is the newest one.» I said.
« Not today» she said
I started to cry and my mother went on shopping. Now I was lost in the shopping centre. I couldn’t find her
again. What a terrible day!
