I didn't catch the bus very often, but once when I was in grade one, I was too busy talking, and missed my stop. My brother and sister got off, but somehow forgot me. I got off at the next stop which was only about two blocks or so from home (but the bus route went up behind my street, so it wasn't in a straight line), but I was hysterical. One of the older girls on the bus walked me home, and my mother had already called the school to double check that I'd gotten on and wasn't stuck at school.

I thought I was never going to get home again!! I was somewhat melodramatic.
