Chapter 5 - The Playful Girl

She who was small but has a heart so innocent you would have to give blessing for her future to be so blissful.

It was supposed to be a normal day as always but after hearing her friends talked about how their parents allowed them to go shopping on their own it sparked an interest in her mind and wanted to demand the same thing.

So when she got home she tried to open up the topic a little bit hesitant and afraid of the reaction she will receive. Mommy she said but with the little confidence she had she could not finished her word and run up to her room.

Her mom a little bit flustered look at the back of the running girl and smiled thinking she wanted something but doesn't have the courage to ask personally in which she will ask later during dinner.

While eating she could feel the stare she was receiving from her mom and looked up seeing her smile then asking her if there is anything she would like to share to her. She smiled and with the boost of encouragement from her mom she started talking about what happen in school today then deliberately move on to the topic she wanted to ask in which her mother laughed and ruffled her hair saying that it was just a small matter and she could allow her to go shopping while waiting in the coffee shop near the store.

Happiness poured through her innocent face and she can't stop babbling about her classmates experiences after dinner she can't help but feel excited about the upcoming event so she already has chosen her clothes and planned to bring her scooter.

The days she has been waiting arrived with impatient and excitement in her face she urge her mom to move faster. Arriving at the grocery she was given instruction and a list of things her mother want her to pick as an errand saying she would receive a price if she includes it in her shopping.

Entering the store she felt she was an adult as if the place is another world from her playground with tall shelf and spacious area she could literally scoot everywhere. Grabbing a cart she walked lane after lane as if each is a different dimension with so many variety of things she thought as only one flavor, finishing her tour she proceed to pick the things that she like and as she was walking she found an empty lane where she thought she could scoot for a little while.

Forgetting all the reminder her mom has told her she proceed to scoot and after a ride a security guard immediately blows his whistle and startled her almost bumping into the stall. The guard then proceed to ask her where are her parents and if she knows that what she is doing is not allowed in the store a little bit flustered and afraid she was reminded of the list and told the guard she was running an errand in which her mom is waiting nearby.

Scolding her a little and reminding her of the rules she was let go and proceed with her shopping. She then tried to remember all the things her mother was telling her that she never put in her heart as she was excited in doing something only an adult could do. A little bit sad she was disappointed for not listening but remembering that she had already done the thing and she couldn't go back to correct it she stop and goes to her mother showing a smile and deep inside her a little lesson she wishes to never forget.

A little reminder that as she grows up is sometimes forgotten but when similar situation occurs would suddenly pop up in his mind as if a reminder of the warmth of her mother smile and gentle reminders.
