"They're thieves!" Matron screamed. It was Carina's last day at the orphanage and the two girls were studying time. They only 'borrowed' a pencil from the head's office. The local police came rushing in. Caia Dint and Carina Alin were arrested and locked into a cell. The next day a judge came to see them to ask if either of them wished to confess committing the crime. Carina did the talking.
"We're not thieves,"
"Nonsense, you stole two pencils,"
"No we didn't, we borrowed them without permission. We were always going to return them. Anyway, why does everyone care about two fucking pencils?" Caia noticed Carina's hands near the lock. What was she doing? "The only thing that I do confess to, is picking this lock," at this point, Carina bangs open the door, knocking over the judge. The two girls run and don't stop.
