Welcome to Wednesday One Shots, the series where we share a bonus story with you to help you get through the week.
This time around we have a story from a listener named Devi.
I'm a long time listener.
This is not only my story, but also my mother's story as well.
It happened the year that I was born, 2001.
My mom and dad decided to take a trip to Colorado to visit family.
They brought me along, but I was only four months old and lying in my carrier still.
On the return flight, there was a layover in Virginia.
During this layover, the airline told my parents that there were some issues with their luggage,
so my parents made their way to the baggage claim area.
When they de-borted the plane, my mom saw a woman, about 5'3", very skinny, with shoulder-length
black hair, who seemed to be out of place.
This woman made the hair on my mother's neck stand up and sent chills
down her spine. My mom shook this feeling off and kept walking with my dad to the baggage
claim while carrying me in the carrier in her arm. My mom kept seeing this woman pop
up throughout their entire walk to the baggage claim, so she made a mental note to stay
vigilant. When they arrived at the baggage claim desk, she made a mental note to stay vigilant.
When they arrived at the baggage claim desk, my dad stepped away while my mom was talking
to the lady at the desk.
She placed the carrier that I was in on the bench directly to the right of her.
She positioned herself to be able to see me and the lady at the desk at the same time.
Out of her peripheral vision, she saw the same woman
again. Across the room, eerily looking at her.
Once again, my mom tried to reason with herself about this lady. My mom looked at the lady
at the desk, and now also my dad who had just returned, which distracted her from looking
at me for a split second. This is when the woman with the black hair made her way closer to me.
My mom looked at me, and she saw the woman unbuckle me from the carrier, and she had her hands
wrapped around me.
A young boy who looked to be about ten was next to the woman with his arms out ready to
take me.
My mom lunged at the woman, grabbed her arm and yelled,
what do you think you're doing?
The boy sprinted away quickly, and the woman tried, through stuttered and shocked words,
to say that I looked like I was hurting, and the belt in my carrier was too tight.
My mom proceeded to say, get your hands off of my kid, and the lady booked it.
My mom checked me to make sure that I was okay before finding a police officer to inform
him of what had just happened.
That's the day that my mother found out that the area had a problem with baby kidnappings.
The officer took a report from my mother and suggested that she mark black X's on my feet,
under my socks, in case someone was to successfully take me. If they tried to change my clothes,
I could be identified. Needless to say, she did just that. So to the lady and the young boy who
attempted to rob me and my parents of the life that I had,
let's hope that no one else has ever suffered at your hands and let's not meet.
Thank you to Debbie for sharing that story. If you have a story to share, send it to Let's Not Meet Stories at Gmail.com.
We'll see you all next week for a brand new episode of Let's Not Meet. Everyone, stay safe. You've waited long enough.
