The Thief(Complete) (Sample)

VII.

I went into Giselle's room, I took her piggy bank and brought it back to my bedroom then opened it. I needed to make sure she had enough for what she wanted, I shook it to get the money out and only a dollar fell out. I shook it again and then looked inside the hole, nothing.

I went back into Giselle's bedroom then sat down on her bed and tapped her shoulder to wake her up.

"Hey, I'm sorry for waking you up.." I whispered to her as she rubs her eyes.

"Is something wrong?" She asks.

"How much money do you have in your bank? Not an exact number but roughly.."

"$100, I have quarters, dollars and dimes!"

"Okay, just making sure.. Can you get an outfit for school and some extra underwear, two more outfits for the weekend?" I pointed to her bag and she gets up from the bed.

"When you're done, come to my room.." I continued then leave her room quietly and go back to mine, I change my clothes then put some things into a bag. I head to the bathroom and get our soaps, shampoos, conditioners, toothbrushes, and deodorant then give Giselle the bag.

"Here, you take this and you quietly go to Ms. Roberta's. Take this too and I'll be there, go.."

I give her the phone too and she looks behind herself and sees Adam sleeping on the couch, I point to the door and she walks straight for the door. I waited for her to leave and I went back to the bedroom then put my mask in my back pocket, I then grabbed Giselle's piggy bank and went back into the living room.

"So you took my daughters money?!" I asked him and he looks at me dumbfounded.

"Get the fuck out of my face Marnie.."

"SO YOU TOOK MY DAUGHTERS FUCKING MONEY?!" I asked again loudly, he gets ready to get up from the couch.

"Who the fuck are you talkin—"

I smashed the piggy bank over his head then cocked my fist back and punched him in the nose, he was caught off guard while trying to stand up.

"You fucking bitch.."

I hopped over the table and backed up towards the door, he gets up and holds his nose for a second then checks the blood dripping from his nose.

"Hit me while I'm standing.." He taunts me and I gesture for him to come on.

"Come beat my ass now.." I begged and he starts coming forward, I run out the door and down the steps. He followed me down the street then lost me a few blocks away but I remembered this neighborhood and I saw John's vehicle parked at a drug store.

It wasn't John though, his wife Francesca was exiting the store. I smiled to myself then put on my mask that was in my back pocket, I looked at the wall of the drug store to see where the camera was then ran over to the vehicle as she was putting on her seatbelt. I pull my sleeve down a bit over my fist then cock my fist back and break her window, she starts screaming as I reached into the window and grab a handful of her hair then bash her face into the steering wheel.

"Help me! Somebody help me!"

I yank her out of the window then throw her onto the concrete.

"You want money? I have money!" She attempted to back up as I laughed then lift my leg up and stomp at her face, I gave her face a nice stomp then felt my body being lifted up. I started swinging.

"Hey, hey, it's me relax!"

"Me who?! I don't fucking know—"

"Marnie, it's me, I saw you run from your apartment.." I knew it was him but I wasn't trying to blow my cover until he said that.
