You and your best friend, Ethan, are on a first date. Walking side by side Im the mall, holding hands, Your mom trailing behind like she always does every outing with him, since she doesn’t ever let you go alone. You occasionally glance back to check on her. This time when you glance back, there’s a man pulling her. You freeze and yell “MOM!” Trying to run over to her, but you can’t. You look down at your hand where Ethan’s is holding it like a vice. “Ethan! Let Go!” You look back at your mom struggling, clawing at the man’s hand. You look up at Ethan’s face. He’s stiff and Pale and…he’s crying. He’s scared. He freezes up like this when he’s scared. The only thing you can do is stay calm so he doesn’t panic more.
