"Hey baby sis" Mario said as I walked in the house

"I need a favor" I said

"What , well I know you got paid and I need you to give me some money" I said

"For what" he said

"Stuff , come on mario" I said

"Sincere I'm not gone have no money , mama asked me to pay her loan-

"She got another one" I said

"Yep , I told her to stop getting money she can't pay back" he said

I took a deep breath and just looked at him

"Then I got to give iyana some money for Passion " he said

"You just gave iyana some money for her"I said

"I know , then I been asking her for the DNA test , she be procrastinating" he said

"Mario. Passion look just like you and you know it" I said

"Man she probably just look like me because she be around me , I don't know man" he said

"Well good luck and where mama" I said

"Working late" he said

"I thought she worked late on fridays" I said

"Me to but she had called a lil before you got in and told me " he said

I shook my head and went in my room and sat on the bed and wondered how I was gone get this make up and stuff for tomorrow.

"Mario , Ill be back" I said

"Where you going" he said

"Outside , tired of sitting here" I told him

"Alright" he said and went back to doing whatever he was doing on his phone"

I walked to the nearest hair store which was called "The WareHouse" I walked in and seen weave jewelry makeup and all.

I went to the make section where the lipstick and mascara and eyeliner was , I looked around and start putting the stuff my purse. I went on the jewelry section and started putting earrings and all in my purse.

"Hey , are you paying for that" a lady said when I was just about to put the necklace in my purse

"Um , no I was just putting it back" I said attempting to leave

"Can I check you purse" the last said

"Nooo" I said

She then grabbed the strap and pulled it which ripped open my purse and everything fell out so I instantly ran. She yelled to the security guard outside and he got in his car and chased me.

"Please , I put everything back" I said

"I'm sorry but you're under arrest for theft" he said and put me in the car
