Wishing For What's Forbidden

~Dawn Of Discoveries (Part 1)

Olga's POV
I maneuvered through the crowd with nimble fingers and a heavy heart in the bustling city streets, skillfully pickpocketing. All the things I had in possession were not enough. I needed to get more... or maybe , something valuable. I fixed my cap wel on my head, self conscious as I walked around.                                                      My eyes scanned the crowd, looking for a more beneficial victim.
"Go out there and make me proud, my Lala, " Grandma's voice echoed in my head, making me stop in my tracks.
Yep, mom and dad disappeared without any traces and left me in the care of grandma. I begun taking care of her as years went by because she got seriously sick and was was growing older and older. Our financial life was a great mess and the bank ended up seizing our house since we owed them a large amount of money. We looked for a smaller apartment to stay in and life hasn't been easy since then.              
I begun looking for quick ways to get money to secure the medical health care of grandma .                        There, I introduced myself to pickpocketing and I've been doing it ever since our house got seized. Grandma had no idea of what I was doing since I told her I had gotten a part time job at a coffee shop and that I worked there after school. I was soo swift and fast that no one ever suspected a thing.
Grandma was growing worse day by day, her illness threatening to take her life. I wasn't gonna let that happen, though. She was the only one I had left and I just couldn't let her go, not after all she'd done for me. I knew she'd be disappointed if she ever got to know about my dishonest life but all I knew was that I was doing it for her. I'd risk everything to keep her alive.

I searched the crowd for someone who was worthy for me to test my skills on. As lucky as I was, I spotted a fine and wealthy middle- aged man standing at the street. He was guarded by some men in black as a mechanic fixed his car. That wealthy man was Mr. Naemea, the owner of the famous high tech company of Candana. I knew he was my scoop. Planning how I'd work my magic, I walked towards him and his guards as I chanted, "For the love of grandma".

...
The bodyguard gave me a look that meant to say" What the fuck do you think you're doing? ". I swallowed in hard and looked at the watch in my hand. I then looked up at Mr. Naemea and giggled nervously. " U- Uhhh, it's not what you're thinking, "I hid the watch behind me with a nervous grin which was hidden behind my nose mask. Mr. Naemea seemed to be fuming inside as I managed to take a few steps backwards.                         Mannn, everyone around had their eyes on me and were whispering not- soo- nice things about me. " Get her! "Mr.Naemea ordered. At that, I took to my heels with the bodyguards after me. I managed to outsmart them a number of times but they caught up with me soon enough.
In the tiring run, I choked on a stone and next thing I knew, I fell to the ground, grazing my knee against the ground. I couldn't get killed or imprisoned... Who'd take care of grandma? I got back onto my feet and continued to run for my life.
Good News:The bodyguards or anyone wouldn't be able to identify who I was in case I got to escape. That's because I had a cap and a nose mask on. I wouldn't have trouble later.
Bad News: The bodyguards had me trapped in a dark alley and I had no way to escape.
So this was it?

All I could see was the high wall in front of me that was blocking my access to the other side of it. " No! "I hit the wall with the soft part of my clenched fist in disappointment. " And where do you think you're going, young lady? "I heard a voice say behind me. I turned around to meet the gazes of the robot- like bodyguards who had me trapped.
At this point of my life, I was panicking and blaming myself for being a bad girl. " I should have continued stealing from normal people... Was I being greedy by stealing from people? " I thought to myself, gazing at the million dollar worth watch in my hand.
I was drawn out of my thoughts when I heard the same voice say, "Kill her" . I was horrified when one of them begun moving towards me with an electrocuter in his hand, one that could kill within a single shock. "You dared to steal from the great Sir. Naemea, father of technology... You surely will pay with your life, " the same voice from before said. I looked at who the voice belonged to. He was a bit dark and had a scar on his face, yeesh!
(Turns out that he's the head of the bodyguards).
"N-no, please don't! You can have the watch back... There's not a single scratch on it. Please, just let me go, " I managed to say with my breaking voice. I was at the verge of crying as I held the watch out to them.
"Begging won't help you out of this. You will pay dearly with your life no matter what! " the leader said. The one with the electrocuter walked towards me, the gap between us closing up slowly. I covered my eyes with my palms after I placed the watch in my pocket.
