Keys Vanished - Panic Sets In!
My heart just about leaped out of my chest when I realized that my car keys were gone. I desperately searched the entire house, but they were nowhere to be seen. I'm feeling beyond exasperated because now I have no way to attend my appointment.
I've already scrutinized all the usual spots, like my bags. Maybe they're hidden somewhere? I even thought about the possibility that a mischievous creature might have stolen them.
This is a disaster. What am I going to say?
