My first Embarrassment

We accept escape when certain situations in life arrive. I made an escape like that at a young age. Now I feel so much guilt when I think about it. My parents have two children and I am the eldest of them. I was in fifth grade or sixth grade, I was bad at my studies. I spent most of my time playing. My parents used to argue with me a lot because I did not study. But after listening to all this I go and study, but when I am going to study, mostly I fall in sleep. At that moment in my mind began to feel a little stupid thing. At the time, I thought my parents did not like me. So I planned to run away from home. So one evening I went straight from school to a place I did not know. I had taken some money from my dad without his permission. The plan at that age was to live on that money for a few days and then find a job. I reach a place I did not know. After a while, I realised I had nothing to do and took a taxi to a shopping mall near my school. I sat there for a while not knowing what to do. Suddenly I noticed two school teachers coming there. They came and asked me why I was sitting here and why I was not going home. Then I told the teachers that my dad would come to call right away. So the teachers told me not to sit here and took me to school. When I got back to school, I noticed that there was a big issue with not seeing me. So after a while, my dad came and picked me up and was going home. When I got home, I saw a crowd in my house. When I looked, my mother was sitting there crying. That’s when I realised that what I did was wrong. I was very embarrassed after that. I did not go out even when guests came to the house and I sat in the kitchen. I didn’t even go to play with my friends for a while because of the embarrassment. Now when I think about it I get a good laugh. What a great fool I am.
