left at four

I was over at Chelsea's place.
We played Barbies.
Watched Sailor Moon.
Made cookies.
After our play-date,
uncle Ralph dropped me off at home.
Our white station wagon in the driveway,
he assumed everyone was home.
They weren't.
I was left alone, locked out of my house.
I decided to walk to Laurie's (across town)...
she wasn't there either.
I went back home,
crouched behind the white station wagon in our driveway,
and cried.
