“I was lost! You lost me!” Flora shouted. Her mother looked around self-consciously before kneeling to Flora’s level. “You don’t look lost to me,” she said, smiling and brushing a strand of Flora’s hair behind her ear. “What could it have been, five minutes?” Flora knew exactly how long it had been. She had just learned to tell time in school. She was without her mother for nearly half an hour.
