It was a quiet night as Nat Walked to the vending machines to buy him a quick little drink before he got home. When he reached the machines, he dug through his pockets for his wallet. He started to panic after realizing that there was nothing but a few pocket changes in his pockets. He couldn’t let his parents know that he misplaced his wallet, so he went back and retrace his steps on what he did that day. He went to his job down by the coast of Florida. It’s a little shack sitting on the cold dry sand. Nat such the absent-minded guy he is, forgot the time as it was 11 a.m. so the shack was long closed.

Nat was really scared on what could be happening to his credit cards and cash. His hands started hurting for some odd reason like he was gripping a firm hand. He ignored the feeling and went back to his car. Nat was sitting in his car thinking hard and hard till he got a headache. An hour has passed by and he got tired. Suddenly his car ran out of gas, thinking to him why he leaved the car on in the first place. He then pushed his car about half a mile till he reached the nearest gas station.

After that half an hour long push, he was notice by some workers. The worker said he will help refill the gas so he can take a break. After 2 gallons in Nat was talking a quick nap. He suddenly woken up shocked and frozen to the pavement he was sitting on. He had a sick feeling in his stomach, like it was going to implode on him. He forgot that he doesn’t have his wallet. Nat then told the man, “I lost my wallet on the way here.” The man replied, “Isn’t in your hand sir?” He looked at his hand looking blankly at his wallet. Oh………………
