Three of them outside.
Two of us in the bedroom.
Me with only one usable arm.
"What are they doing out there?" My wife asked with fear in her voice.
I moved towards the curtains to look.
"Be careful they don't see you" she advised.
I turned to reply.
"Shhh. They'll hear you" She warns.
No point in arguing.
I carefully look through the curtains.
Our dog starts barking. Good girl Lucy.
One of the thugs was still by the front door. The other two were down standing by their car. The thug by the door turns and motions to his accomplices. They walk over to our neighbor's house.
Our neighbor isn't home, could they be casing the place?
I begin to wonder where the phone is and how long it will take the cops to get here. I want to ask my wife, but before I can say anything the three thugs get into their car and drive off.
My wife and I hurry to the living room window to make sure they have left our street.
What was that all about?
My wife goes to the front door.
"Ah, mystery solved."
She turns around.
A flier in her hand reads:
5 Star Pizza. Fast Delivery.
