The Bus You Took by Yourself
You're making a short journey on your own for the first time — a bus a few stops, or a walk into town to meet your family. You've done the route loads of times with someone. Today you're doing it without. It's going fine, mostly. Then something small throws you: the bus takes a slightly different turn, or you're not totally sure which stop is yours, and a flicker of doubt becomes a wobble of panic. What if I've got it wrong? What if I miss it? What do I even do? You've got a phone, or some money, or the name of where you're going. You're not actually stranded. But in this moment it feels like everything's gone wrong, and you have to decide whether to panic or to think.
