Me & my little sister

It was a regular day where 13 year old me got up to get ready for school. I get all dress and go wake up my mother to take me to the bus stop, has she insisted every morning. She is pregnant with my little sister who is due in a week to join our family. Has my mom wake up she notices that her nightgown and bed is soaked with water. YES, her water broke but she didn’t know since she never been through this experience. She finds her phone and calls her doctor. I vividly remember hearing the doctor yell at my mother saying “call 911 right now”. The ambulance comes to take my mom and a family friend takes me to school. Faster forward to 3:20pm when I get home and my neighbor was supposed to get me from the bus stop. No one is there so I decided I’m going to my best friend house to call my mom. We’re walking to my best friends house at the time and see that my family car is parked in the driveway. I go knocked for a good ten minutes but no answer. We end to my best friend’s house and I immediately call the house phone multiple times has my parents did not have cell phones at the time. About four hours go by and there a knock on my bestfriend’s house. Her mother answers and it the cops. They ask if I was there and to speak with me. They ask if I am okay and what happened. So I explain that no one came and got me off the bus as well has the fact that I’ve been calling the house phone all day. The police officer said she be right back and come back with my uncle and dad. My dad is so excited to see me has they thought I was lost. From there view of everything, my neighbor was supposed to get my from the bus but the bus was late that day and she missed me. They had contacted the school, the bus driver was interviewed by the cops, my parents had an alert out for me, and best of all my mother was refuses to have my baby sister until I was found. In the end, I got to the hospital just in time to meet my new little sister and all was fine.
