My heart was beating so fast and loud I could hardly hear the clicks as I turned the safe dial. Just one more number and I would be in.
“Click!”
I looked at my teammates and smiled,
“Easy!!”
As I opened the safe door, the glare from the jewel inside almost blinded me. It was the biggest diamond I had ever seen in my life.
“Come on, don’t take all day, the cops will be here soon!”
I picked up the jewel and stuffed it into my coat pocket.
I said goodbye to my teammates and jumped into my car. As I drove off I could hear the police sirens and saw the flashing lights of their cars as they pulled up outside the jewellery store.
“Phew, got out of there just in time!”
I drove to a gas station and went and changed my clothes in the restroom. Noone would think I was a criminal now that I was wearing my business suit. I put the jewel inside my briefcase and drove home.
“Hi Mom, hi Dad, I’m home.”
“How was your internship? Did you have a good day?”
“Yes it was good.”
“Was it exciting?”
Flashbacks of the robbery sprang into my mind, the adrenaline pumping through my veins and the flash of the police cars lights.
