Friday 55 Flash Fiction # 22 Robbery

Robbery


“Hand over the cash and don’t make a fuss”.


“What? You can’t do this” she said


“Just put the money in the bag and hand it over”


“You don’t frighten me” she snapped


“You’re gonna get hurt if you don’t do it!”


“Go away and leave us alone.”







“Mummy, Johnny’s spoiling our game of shop!”

Gledwood said...

did you hear about the 50something year old grandmother in New York who was doing armed robberies and saying "sorry" to the poor traumatized gun-toted-at bank tellers...

... she only got caught by going over a toll bridge and getting busted by some b*****d seeing her "wanted" poster..!

many thanks for your message at mine:... have a charmin' weekend!!
