Tea Break

For You

Jenny's P.O V

Mum...

Was the only thing in my head, even though I was stuck in an unknown room with only a feeble light.

Ignoring the weight of the money bucks that were wrapped around my waist in a secured cloth, which was covered by my bomber jacket, I was only worried about my mum in the hospital. Taking her last breaths, waiting for me to bring the money, so her operation can start.

This morning..

I have to do it, for the sake of my mum.

Living in this crappy area, I didn't robbed or steal even if all people here did it for the sake of food or their lives. 

But I just can't see my mum, the only good thing that I have, die from pain and coughing.

I have to, and will steal for the sake of her.

With that, I tightened my bag strips around my shoulders, wearing a dark T-shirt with a bomber jacket and plain black jeans, I put the cap on my head and opened the rusty door of our ones room apartment.

I had locked my target one week ago. Even though I hadn't a plan to be a thief one week ago, but Eva......

The lady land of this whole area, with her sparkly jewellery and expensive clothes, she comes by here every month just to disgrace all of us, threatening us that if we don't pay her rent on time, she'll kick us out.

A month ago, she was scolding my mom for spilling water over her shoes when mom accidentally slipped. I stood up for mum just to receive a couple of slaps from Eva, getting my face swollen up for a week and receiving mum's scolding every time she treated my bruises.

After a week's mental preparation and closely observing my target, I am now ready.

To take my revenge, for a good thing.

2:58 pm

I looked at my watch and then at her door.

3pm sharp, she takes her dog on a walk.

As the time ticked 3, her door opened. Her fat appearance with her little dog with full hair body, both walked out with their heads raised with arrogance.

Hiding behind the tree, she didn't saw me as she locked her gate and walked out of her two story house,.......of course leaving the kitchen window opened.

Being a 17 years old, it wasn't hard for me to simply jump inside the window, once Eva and her dog Tommy walked out of the street.

Walking through the kitchen, I came in the living room. Her house maybe not be luxurious or big, but for me it was heaven.

I walked up the stairs with my hand gently brushing along the staircase handrail. On the first floor were two rooms and the other area was opened with big windows, and stuff toys scattered all over the floor, probably what her dog did.

I found the second floor staircase and went up, once I make sure that her room is not on the first floor. The second floor was a bit dark and didn't had any windows. There was a long hall with room doors along with it. Only a single bulb was lighting the long way.

Gladly all the rooms were named, making it easy for me to find her 'BEDROOM'

i opened the door and went inside. The room was like a hospital room; neat, white and had a medicine scent in it.
