She got into her car, started it and after a few kilometers she realized that there was a child in the back seat, a perfect stranger who started crying in despair. While the mother of the same child, equally desperate, was looking for him in the supermarket parking lot.
It happened a few days ago in a town in the Terralbese area and the story - with a happy ending - features two young women.
Their fates crossed for a few minutes (of sheer terror) in the supermarket parking lot. One of the two, after shopping, opened the door of the car and made her son, not even 5 years old, sit in the back seat, then went to retrieve the trolley with the bags. But he put the baby in another car , the same color and parked next to his.
In a few seconds the owner, who had left the car open after arranging the shopping and had moved away for a moment to leave the trolley, got behind the wheel and put into gear, without noticing the child , quietly behind her. with his head down on the smartphone.
When the woman answered a phone call, the little boy became aware of the unfamiliar voice and burst into tears . So she stopped, reassured the child and alerted the police, who reached the supermarket parking lot and found the desperate mother in search of her son.
Here pro quo solved, the woman went back to the parking lot and left the baby to her mother. A sigh of relief after a few minutes of great fear.
