  One day I was playing on the swings when I was a little girl. I was staying at my grandma's house and there was a park that was really close to her house. No one ever went to the park, but I still loved running over to play on the swings. But I found it odd when I saw my grandma's neighbor riding his lawn mower at the park while I was playing on the swings one day. He didn't work at the park and he never mowed the grass at the park before. I was frightened when I saw him driving it in my direction. I was uncomfortable, so I jumped off the swing and ran to my grandma's house.
  Nothing bad happened to me, but I was still creeped out by the man on his lawn mower. The next morning I decided to go outside to see if he actually mowed the grass. I was expecting it all to be mowed and it was just me being a scared little girl.
  My heart began to pound when I saw the lawn mower tracks were where I was and only where I was. It still frightens me to this day that if I would've ignored him and continued to play on the swings that something could have happened to me. I don't even want to know what he wanted with me.
