Sammy:  Oh, yes. I'll see you in five minutes?

Sammy: Hi, Julia? I'm here.
Julia: Oh, that was quick.

I don't remember a hard time finding in public place but I have had similar in other places. Recently I had the situation when I visited my friend in hospital. there was a little problem to find a hospital room where he was lying.

I have had hard time finding someone in a public space, actually in the world's biggest mall in Dubai. I was looking for my friend who had already waited for me. She was upset cause I could not find her.

Yes, last day I had hard time finding my son. It was only five years old and he's going to go home by himself. He crossed the street. Fortunately a woman yelled at me from the window "over there, over there" oh thank a lot.
