"Mister, please give me some bread I haven't eaten for 2 days, please help me" I begged

"How is that my business, get out you filthy peasant" he shoved me away and walked away.

"I guess I have to go another day without food" I mumbled.

"yang I told you to steal it but you went ahead and asked, do you think these people would give you anything? They are all stingy and snobbish, they deserve to be robbed"my best friend Feng explained.

"Feng, even if they treat us like trash, stealing is still stealing," I said as we walked to our slum.

"I think we should look for a job," I added

"you can, but I am not I am going to sit on my lazy butt here" Feng declined.

"how about we go see old man Wu, he should have some suggestions" she added

"This is the first time you ever said something sensible" I patted her back and went out.

Life is so hard when you have no parents, yet those with parents do not even appreciate them, all I know is that my mother died after my birth, and my father.. I don't know anything about him.

"old man Wu, it's Yang, old man Wu" I walked around the house then saw him lying in a pool of blood.

"old man wu, somebody help.... Old man Wu, please wake up"I know it was useless but he was the only one who cared for me.

Minutes later the palace guards came.

"you killed the old man " They asked.

"No... I didn't,  I really didn't " I jumped to my feet

It seemed that they didn't believe me.
One of the guards stared at me in disbelief

"you killed the old man so you have to come with us "they growled then dragged me away.

"I didn't. I didn't "I pleaded but it was no help.

The villagers didn't even help me they just looked at me with disgust on their faces. Feng was right they deserved to be robbed.
