I’ve had quite a few scary moments in life but the one I’ll never forget was when I was around 7 . It was the 80’s and you never heard much about kidnapping and stuff. My family always went for rides on Sundays and before we headed home we would stop for ice cream . My mother and brother always stayed in the car and my father and I would go into get what everyone wanted . I was waiting in line with my dad but I was a little behind him , looking at stuff . All of a sudden I feel a hand on my shoulder and the guy grabs me and starts pushing me to the door and says to me “ Be quiet and get in the f***ing car !” ! I was so shocked that I couldn’t scream or anything ! I was trying to look back at my dad and scream but nothing would come out . Thankfully my father turns around to check on me and sees the guy trying to take me out the door . Now my mother and brother also see it at the same time because we were parked right in front of the store. My father comes over , Grabs hold of the guy and Says “ get your hands off my daughter !” At this time, my mother is out of the car heading towards us , so my father hands me to my mother and sends us to the car . I was shaking and terrified ! As I was getting into our blazer I could hear my father and the guy arguing and the guy tried saying that his daughter also had long brown hair and he thought she had gotten out of his car and had come into the store after he told her to stay in the car , so he had grabbed me thinking that I was her . My father was pretty shaken up over the whole thing and just wanted to check on me and get us home and one of the workers was going to get the mans info and turn it in . I remember later that night my father telling us that he had just gotten off the call and that the guy had been lying about having his daughter in the car and was trying to take me ! We never went back to that store and we lived far from it so that made me feel little better but it really scared me and I still think about it every now and then .
