This is the part in the movie where the character would've at least had a lead to what's going on but...this isn't just any movie. This. Is. Life. Specifically, my life where my brother mysteriously disappears from the army and where my mother is the mayor who I feel is hiding something from me. 

Throughout this time I've looked and tried to get any view somewhat of what is going on. When I realize my mom in the back of the crowd pacing and mumbling, of course being the great daughter I am, I dart past people like sonic the hedgehog to see if she's okay. As I'm making my way through the crowd I noticed 3 soldiers in army uniform with flags walking towards the front. As would I do in any situation, I walked past them struggling to find my mother. Of course thanks to the interference of the army men, I lost sight of her.

After a while, I finally gain sight of her once more. That's when I realized there was a gun in her coat pocket. Had that always been there? I stood there in frustration after realizing I have no control over this situation, tears filled my eyes as I kept swarming through the crowd like a lost kid in a store trying to find their way back to their parent. I eventually just lost it, tore myself away from the crowd and rushed towards our car.
