Before, I was a thief

Before, I was one of the people who tried to have a rebellion

Before, I can do everything I want!

I can kill people too.. I guess I killed 22 of them.

But now, I changed and nobody wants to belive.

I'm a grade 10 student, 25 years old planned to change my life for my sake.

I know I can do it,, The problem is, I can't continue to study. I have no one to support me.

I have a part time job.. Waitress in a restaurant. 170 pesos per day. See? I cannot save money.

How can I save money for my college?

I went outside our school and a man approached me. I was shocked !

It's my old friend " What can I do for you?" I asked

"My friend, I just wanted to help you. I know you need money. Come with me."

We went to a shack and sat on a bamboo bench and he opened briefcase.

"It worth 2 million. I can give you this if you will do what I wanted to do"

"Anything." I answered

He handed me a knife " Find this bussines man and kill him."

I dropped the knife "Why me? I planned to change my life.."
He pointed the gun to me so I stood up finding the man.. I found him after an hour

I walked to him as my legs shakes and my heart beat so fast

I prepared my knife for stabbing him but he pointed me a gun and.. It's my friend..

I ran but he shot my leg I asked him why

" Your dad stole my properties.. You should pay! "

He pointed the gun on my head and I many feelings covered my heart. I trusted the wrong person.

I'm gonna die... There's no escape of dying.. God, I'm sorry...

I promised that I will not do this again but... I'm really sorry.. I repent.

BANG!

I heard a gun when I closed my eyes and when I opened it, I saw him dead infront of me shot by a policeman. Lesson learned: I shouldn't be blinded by the shine of money. I should do legal things to make it mine.
