Always Remember This Number…

There was one phone number he could dial, one that his mother had reminded him of whenever she was teaching him what to do in a scary situation. Plus, it was even short enough that he could remember: “911!” Elijah couldn’t think of a scarier situation than this—he was stuck inside all alone and without an adult around to help! His father might have been in trouble, for all he knew. He picked up the wireless phone and started dialing, confident someone on the other side could help.
