We were about to leave the shops when my best friend came up with a plan.
“Have you ever done this before?” I asked Rebecca looking straight into her eyes.
“Of course I have!” Replied Rebecca, giving me a little nudge with her shoulder “It’s safe, I think” whispered Rebecca with a wobbly grin. We ran up to our parents. “Excuse me Mum, but could Hannah and I stay at the shops a little longer?” Rebecca questioned and glanced at me, wanting me to say something more.
“Right, after all we are responsible, best friends,” I continued with an unconvincing smile. Our parents gave us some money if we needed to buy some food or water. As they walked out of the door, we waved and yelled good bye. But that was the easy part, now the operation was real. “It’s about 5 o’ clock,” I told Rebecca pointing at my watch. We ran into the toy store as if we were customers. We went to a quiet aisle and just waited.
TWO HOURS LATER
Finally, the store was starting to shut. “Dear shoppers! Everyone please exit the toy store as we are closing for today.” The robot like voice boomed through the loud speakers. As we saw people leaving the shop, we started getting ready for the long night ahead.
“Will our parents find out?” I asked, I was beginning to doubt what we are doing.
“I told them we were having a sleep over at Jenny’s,” replied Rebecca “I told them we would catch the bus back home in the afternoon.” We hid behind boxes of toys waiting for all of the staff of toy store to leave. They looked through all the aisles to see if anyone was still shopping. We could hear the footsteps of someone coming near us, we froze. “Do you want to go for a burger Bob?” asked one of the staff members.
“Are you sure about doing this?” I asked squinting to try see Rebecca’s face.
“All you do is worry Hannah,” Rebecca moaned with a smirk “You never take a risk.”
“Is that a bet?” I replied shooting her smirk back at her. “Let me have the first go on the bike,” I suggested. Rebecca gave me the bike handles. With one push I started to ride the bike. Suddenly my hand slipped off the handle. The bike smashed into a shelf. Oh no! What have we done?
