lost but not lost

So we all face some or the other unforgettable incidents in our lives. Therefore they always remain in our memory.

It's my story when I went to another city (Delhi) with my family to attend my uncle's engagement ceremony. I was just 11 years old that time. We had great fun there enjoyed the ceremony and everything done smoothly. After the ceremony everyone planned to visit some special places in the city. It was a great fun till we reached akshardhama temple (a renowned temple in India, Delhi). For getting there we had to face a huge crowd and buying tickets was really hard too. My elders left me with my little 3 year old cousin with me in the corner and went to buy the tickets. We two innocent creatures stood there like statues and suddenly the crowd suffered with a panic and it started moving in a very bad way. We got mixed up in the crowd and I could see noone of my family. 25 minutes went away, with a crying face thoughts rushed up in my mind. I imagined as I'll have to live as an orphan with my little sister and beg on the street with wearing torn clothes and handing a bowl in our hands. I looked at my sister's innocent face and imagined her begging in torn clothes. Suddenly, someone hit me from behind. I didn't moved as I got scared with the thought of some ugly looking stranger, murder, kidnapper etc. But thank God it was my aunt who found us and a sigh of relief OMG!! I hugged her so tight and never left her hand throughout the journey. This story is and will always be memorable in my thoughts.
