Thieves Wanted! Yet Again!
If I were to go and try and steal
something, I'd at least make it worth the risk. Go for the gold!
This young thief wasn't that bright.
Who would steal old Genesis sports games? Well, no one
usually. So Gord would just leave them in the boxes on the
floor. Why steal a game priced at $5?
Well, seems three young thieves decided they really wanted
Rugby and couldn't raise the $5 for the price tag. The Gord
wasn't paying attention to the kids as they were only looking
at Genesis games, but his brother noticed that they pocketed
one game.
When they left the Gord was informed of their act, and the
Gord confirmed the game was stolen. So he stepped out to
catch up to them.
"Hey! You!" proclaimed the Gord.
The kids keep walking.
"Stop already!" suggested the Gord.
(perhaps they were thinking if they ignored the Gord, the Gord
would go away).
"DON'T MAKE ME RUN!!" yelled the Gord.
The kids stopped. The Gord approached.
"Alright, give me the game back."
Two of the kids looked guilty and kept their eyes at the
ground. The third kid went into mouthy mode. Three guesses
who had the game, first two don't count.
"You can't touch us!"
"Wrong."
"What?"
"I'm going to do to you the same thing that happened to the
last thief I caught. I'm going to toss you into a wall, into
a van, and into a wall again. "
"You can't do that!"
"Good news for you, there is no van here. Bad news, you're
going into that wall twice."
And the Gord grabbed the kid and picked him up.
"Ok! Ok! I'll give you your game back!" as he began to
scream and tears came out of his eyes.
The Gord was a forgiving Gord. He spared the child and
returned with his game. And the young child entered his
excommunication from the store. |
