In a bustling city full of tall buildings and busy streets, there lived a little boy named Carlos. He had bright eyes and loved adventures.
One sunny morning, Carlos's mother took him to the market. The streets were crowded and full of colors and smells.
Suddenly, Carlos saw a stray puppy and followed it, weaving through the stalls. He forgot to look back.
As the puppy scampered away, Carlos found himself alone among strangers, far from his mother.
He began to search for his mother, but the faces in the crowd were unfamiliar, and buildings towered over him.
The sky darkened, and rumbling sounds filled the air. People started to run. A storm was coming!
Carlos took shelter under an awning. Rain poured down, and he huddled, feeling scared and alone.
As the rain fell, a kind lady named Rosa saw Carlos. She offered him shelter in her nearby shop.
The storm raged outside, but inside Rosa's shop, Carlos found warmth and comfort as he sipped hot cocoa.
Rosa called the local radio station, and soon, a message about Carlos was broadcasted across the city.
During the storm, Carlos told Rosa stories about his family. Despite his fear, he smiled as he remembered them.
As the storm cleared, Carlos's parents heard the radio message. They rushed to Rosa's shop, their hearts full of hope.
There was a joyful reunion as Carlos ran into the loving arms of his parents, his adventure ending safely.
