so this wasn't actually a customer anywhere. well, could hav ebeen a customer who had just left my store. but anyways...
as i was walking away from work today, i was looking acros the street. i saw a lady who leaning into her car over the drivers side seat. i also notice that behind the car, is a little girl, probably around 4, just playing in the snow that was behind the car on the curb. as im watching, im thinking,' hey, she should be watching her kid. this isn't a safe neighborhood and that girl could run out in the street and get hit...'
i then watch the lady get into her car and shut the door, leaving the little girl out there. so now im thinking,'ok...if that wasn't her daughter, then who is the mother and where is she? maybe its that one lady over there...shes standing a bit far away, but maybe...'
the woman takes off, and i keep walking....until i hear a bloodcurdling scream and look to see the little girl running after the car, screaming,"MOMMY!MOMMY!" this poor little girl was tripping over snow, trying to cahse the car down, and crying and screaming for her mother over and over.all i could do was just stop, and stare with my mouth hanging open. there were two women walking in front of me. they stopped and were asking,"oh my god, did that woman leave her kid behind?" the one lady across the street that i had thought might be the mother, jumped into the street, and starts waving her arms, trying to get the attention of the mother.
the woman in the car goes about a block and a half, and then slams on her breaks. she throws the carinto reverse, and drives back. once she gets to where her daugher was, i stated walking again. but i hear her get out of the car screaming,"i thought she was in the car! i thought she got in!"
how the hell can you have a child that looks no older than four, and not make sure they are strapped in before taking off???? even if you did think she got in, you would think to check to make sure she put on her seat belt.... i couldn't believe it.
the screams that little girl made were horrible. she was so scared.
(and please don't be mad at me if it kind of reminded me of scary movie 3, without the kid actually getting hit....)
