The Sticky Situation

I zoomed down the hill racing after my dad. My skis felt like they were lifting off the ground. I felt bad for leaving him go by himself so I followed him down the hill. All the sudden he stopped and looked back at me. I raced up to him and realized that it was not my dad. It was a little girl a out five years old in a army green jacket just like my dads. Oh no I thought to myself, I am in the middle of a ski resort and I don't know where anyone I know is. I went to the chair lift not knowing what to do. "Um excuse me" I said to the man running the chair lift "could I borrow your phone please?" 

"For what?" He asked

"I need to call my dad" I replied

"Where is he?" 

"Well I don't know, I thought I was following him but now I can't find him."

"Do you know how to use iPhone?" He asked

"Yes," I said as he handed me his phone " thank you" I typed in my dads phone number and pressed call. 'Ring' 'ring' but it just went to voice mail. I started to get worried because I didn't know what to do. I typed in my moms phone number this time and clicked call. 'Ring' 'Ring' "hello?" I herd the familiar voice of my mom coming through the phone. 

" Mom?" I said excitedly " it's Ellie." 

" who's phone are you calling me from?" She asked

"The guy who runs the chair lift." I answered

"what do you need?" She asked

"Well," I said "I can't find dad"

"Where are you" she asked

"At the Mac gully chair lift" I replied, then all the sudden I saw something bright orange. Coming down the hill. HANNAH! I found my sister and her friend and her friends dad! I was overjoyed that I did not have to wait there for someone to pick me up! "Mom!" I said "never mind I see Hannah!"

"Are you sure you don't want me and Lauren to pick you up?"

"Yes I'm sure!"

"okay bye!"

"Bye mom!" I gave the phone back to the chair lift guy and thanked him for letting me use his phone. Then I raced over to Hannah " HANNAH!" "Hannah!" I yelled. She did not answer, but I knew it was her. The funny thing was only my mom knew about my situation. Not even my dad until he got back to the lodge and my mom told him. I was mad at him by but I got over it.

Sorry I did not have access to Internet ove break but I typed this in my notes on Tuesday.
