The Crime (Short Story)

Hey all! This is a short story that I found on my computer that I wrote a few years ago!

Liz walked home from school, tired. She was at her front door when she spotted someone trying to get into her neighbour’s house.

He had a tattoo on his entire right arm and had a backpack. He wore dark sunglasses and a black face mask making it hard to see his face. He had jeans on and a black T-shirt.

Thinking fast, she quickly unlocked the door to her house and informed her mother. Her mother called the police station while Liz watched the burglar.

Suddenly, she yelled,

“ Mother! The burglar is entering the house! We have to have to stop him!”

“You are right! Let's go!” Mother replied.

She grabbed a broom and started out the door and yelled,

“ Stop right there or I’ll-”

Her daughter cut her off and yelled in great relieve,

“The police is here! Yay!”

The police officer praised Liz for catching the burglar. And she was more than glad to help.
