Alone for Christmas

3 - The Robbery

Simon Potter was an old fellow with a wrinkley face with a torch and a black crooked crowbar in this hand. Jake Murray wears a nightcap and a raincoat and always carries a knapsack on his shoulders. The leader of the gang, Robert Clark who was a man of a middle age and a hand a small fire arm in his hand. "Is the spot safe?" asked Simon impatiently. "Wait, check is anyone is inside the house." ordered Robert. "Well, I found only two labradors puppies.." said Jake. "Well then let's go. I will manage the dogs.." said Robert. They went through he front door and Robert broke it the room by kicking the door in a great force. When they got into the room the electricity went off!.. "Perfect timing" said Jake with a sigh. "Simon, go check for the  circuit breaker" ordered Robert to Simon. While simon was about to reach the circuit breaker, Jimmy and Jacky dashed towards Simon and tore of his pants!.. "Ah,. This dogs tore of my pants!.."said Simon in a loud voice with pain. Simon suddenly ran out of the house with greate pain and hid behind their van, which they had stolen three months before in Mortford. Simon took out a pant in a great hurry and wore it. And he took out the electric generator and ran to the house. He fixed it within minutes and lights came. When the lights came they saw that Jake trampled the treadmill which Philip uses and fell down. "We have come here no to destroy things, but to rob things, you pinhead" shouted Robert to Jake annoyingly. The dogs were running all over the house and pulling down things from the cupboard, the table and from the attic. "Oh, boy!.. These dogs are making a mess of this house.." said Robert with a sigh. "Simon catch them and I will tie them with the apron in the kitchen, So that they would not make anymore mess" said Robert and he tied them with a apron with a great force. "Go..Go rob things fast. We need to get out as fast as we can. This place is not much safe" said Robert. Jake 
went to the living room and stole the family photos and the books as well and stole the computer that was in the attic. The two dogs tore the apron into two and marched towards Jake and scratched his face and he fell down. Hearing the noise Simon rushed towards the attic. He swinged the baseball bat which was lying near him. He beat down the two the dogs. But while beating he by mistake he broke the computer which was in Jake's knapsack. Jake suddenly turned towards him and shouted "Do you have any idea of what you broke now the baseball bat? Huh?" annoyingly at Simon. "Oh, it's just a small computer" replied Simon. "It's not a  just a computer it's something which you can barely buy, you idiot" shouted Jake. "I saved you from that dogs and now you are shouting at me for that computer" said Simon annoyingly. During their dispute, Simon saw that Philip and his family have arrived. "I don't have time to waste with you, nicompoop" said Simon to Jake. Simon and Jake rushed down hastily. The thieves got out of the house through the back door. When Philip and his family entered the house they were terrified. Jenifer who saw the mess, fainted and fell down. Jake and Janet shouted "Mom!, wake up." "Take her to the bedroom, I am going to call police" said father to them.
