false alarm

yesterday my baby-sister, wawee gave me a fright! i went to pick her up from school and i was just 5 (ok, maybe nearly 10) minutes late. but she was no where to be found at the usual spot.
o'ooh. don't panic, don't panic, i told myself.
drove the car to another gate, thinking she might be there because she wants to keep herself dry from the rain. hopeless :(( she was not there too!
i felt my body tense up already.
drove the car , entered the school compound and stopped at the canteen. no sign of wawee! ahmagaaaad, mana la budak kecik ni? then i saw 3 indonesian workers sitting/ laying down at the stairs area where wawee always sit while waiting for me to come.
and silly me, my brain started to vision scary stuff, the worst thing that could happen if someone has suddenly gone missing. rasa macam jantungku berhenti berdengup buat seketika. no no *knocked the head*, i forced myself to think positive.
then the phone rang!
legaaaa i when wawee called, telling me that she's already at home :))
as i make my way out, i saw 2 girls standing under a tree and waiting for their parents to come. i told myself that one day, when i become a mother (insyallah), i wouldn't want my kids to have to wait for me from school. i want to be there, waiting for them instead. with all the crime news i've read, this world is so scary that i wouldn't want to risk my children's safety! anything can happen tauuuuuu.
i think kan i worry too much lorh! my children might hate me for being too protective over them. call me paranoid, but isn't it better to be safe than sorry?
