I lost Dwyn at the mall

Yes, I did! We went to Trinoma last Thursday coz Dwyn wanted to go there. We went to Timezone first because he wanted to play there, ride the carousel, the train, airplane, balloon wheel, etc. Then, we had lunch. Afterwards, we went to Landmark to look for a kinky stuff for Jero's shower, gift for Euge and Jac's wedding and offertory candles for Erbe and Jero's wedding. I was just walking coz I was already tired. Dwyn was running a few feet away from me. I checked my phone if I have text messages. When I looked up, I didn't see Dwyn anymore. I followed the path where I last saw him. But he was not there. He was gone. I went back and traced my footsteps coz he might be there. He was not. I called out his name. No answer. I tried listening for his cry. There was none. I started to panic. In my confusion, I didn't know what to do first: cry, look for the customers' service which I couldn't locate, stay at the place where Dwyn last saw me or look for him but where will I start.

Fortunately, I saw two security guards. I immediately sought their help. I said I lost my son. I described Dwyn about this tall, wearing a white shirt saying ladies men, around 2 years old. You know, i can't even seem to remember what my son was wearing in all the panic and confusion I was feeling.

I was soooooooo frightened because there's a chance that he might be kidnapped kasi uso yun di ba? But i didn't hear him crying. Baka umakyat or bumaba sya sa escalator.

Fortunately, the guard I asked for help found him wandering alone at the same floor where I last saw him. He was clueless that he was lost already. When I saw him, I immediatetly hugged him and told him don't do that again. And then I was able to breathe.

I was so thankful that the guards didn't hesitate in helping me out.

When another lady guard saw me with Dwyn, she told me that she saw Dwyn wandering alone. Nalibot ni Dwyn ang buong floor, patakbo-takbo, palakad-lakad, at parang nagwiwindow shopping. They were wondering how come Dwyn was alone. They waited for Dwyn to cry so they will bring him to the customers' service, but Dwyn didn't cry. Naglalaro lang daw talaga si Dwyn.

You know the first time I saw a child na nakatali and the other end nakatali sa mom, I said I won't do that. I found it cruel kasi parang aso yung bata. But now that I experienced losing Dwyn, that sounds really good. So kahit magtatakbo si Dwyn di sya mawawala sa paningin ko. And also I will now put my name and contact number in his pockets para sure.
