the first thing I did was to go out of the house and into the street; after a few minutes I saw a woman sitting on a bench, she looked very much like my mother. I went over to her and asked if she knew where I could find some food for myself. She said no but then pointed towards a shop across the street which seemed quite busy so I decided to head there instead.
As soon as I entered the shop it became obvious that this wasn't just any ordinary place because everyone inside was wearing uniforms! It turned out they were all soldiers who had been ordered by their government to help people during wartime conditions like ours right now.
After asking around for directions again finally got myself lost somewhere near what appeared to be an abandoned building nearby instead heading back towards home feeling rather confused about everything since nothing seemed familiar anymore except maybe that one old lady sitting alone outside still waiting patiently until someone would come along soon enough hopefully tomorrow morning when things might start getting better once more over here too soon afterall!
