What was happening to me this morning was so
unbelievable!
I walked down the street when a woman asked me for
direction to the nearest bank. At that moment I was seeing Bill
who stood across the street. I called him and was asking him
to wait for me. Bill started to walk away and I was thinking
he was not wanting to wait for me. I were wrong!
Some minutes later I knowed the truth. While I talking to a
woman ,a pickpocket was putting his hand into my backpack.
But I wasn’t feeling it. When Bill was seeing it he went to call
the police. They were arriving immediately and arrested the
woman and the pickpocket. They both was criminals!
