A Night in San Francisco

It was my first time going out on the street. My sister Jammie and I walked down the city in San francisco. It was supposed to be an hour long walk around the city that soon became more than just that.

Starting when our parents dropped us off for their date night and will come to pick us up after they came back. They dropped us off in front of mall Henry and told us to meet them back here at 11 30. Currently being 8 45 I put a timer on my phone so we wouldn't forget.

Jammie and I loved the mall for their fashion and fancy mall foods. And how at every fast food mall chain had samples for you to try so you buy the food, but we were smarter than that..were.

When 10 started rolling around we got bored of all the stuff at the mall. Lapping around the place 3 times, so much exercise. My sister wanted fresh air, and I wanted to get a cool breeze so we went outside to do so.

We breathed in the fresh air and watched the lights around us. The mall sat on a hill next to a couple drug stores and authentic cheap chinese restaurants. I asked her if we wanted to walk around for a little and she agreed, only if we came back by 11. I nodded and we headed down the mountain which was a huge mistake on our part. We were only going to turn the street corner and go around the block but getting distracted did not help us much. We walked and walked and walked until finally coming to a halt as we heard the alarm on my phone go off.

We gasped as we ran around town then looking for the mall. Our mom called but we had no service from where we were. God we were so lost and confused. Usually we'd never get lost when we walked around town with our parents but maybe we had gone a little too far.

Oh crap, how are we going to get home.
