You weren't so proud, but in your twenties you already had a short list of crimes. Misrepresentation, theft, armed robbery...
I did this because I liked how I got things easy through robberies and scams, it was all very easy. But in a small town things spread easily, it was obvious that it would reach the police, but it wasn't a problem for you, since whenever you heard the sirens you could run away from them. Until the day that damn new police officer came into his life, from then on it was hell. Your escapes were even more difficult, he always knew where you were going, he almost caught you in the act. You were intrigued when you saw the police officer in person for the first time —even though he was several meters away— you saw that the rookie police officer was simply an insufferable boy who you had the displeasure of studying in high school.

The sirens had already stopped, he couldn't hear any noise other than the crickets in the early hours of the morning, he leans back against the wall of any alley and closes his eyes for a few seconds, sighing with relief for finally having escaped again.

Your body freezes when you feel a gentle poke on your shoulder, you open your eyes and see that figure... Damn boy.

"I caught you, didn't I?"
