WHO KILLED OUR MOTHER?

The heist

December 25th, 1999, Christmas Day.

I can’t wait to tell you about this day. It was the best heist in history or maybe not entirely. It was on a Saturday morning, we gathered ourselves to the dining room by 8am after we each had our bath with every one served pan cake prepared by Nanny Grace a 40 years old widow who lost had husband to a car crash and also lost her baby in a miscarriage after hear the news since then she commits herself to us with a feeling of guilt and takes us as a mother nursing the children she never had. That aside she has been a cook and I got to tell you her food taste beyond expression.

You know I read an advert in a newspaper, “Never start your day without an early breakfast”, so I guess we all had to follow what the advert says now before I tell you in on the heist plan. Let me introduce you to the heist crew. 

This is Daniel the distraction. Well, he creates a scene of weeping so loud that crowds gather to watch him. Besides, he has cute eyes. You could say that is another charm of his and you may be wondering that there is no way a loud cry can be distracting. Well, in the 19’s when a loud cry I heard it is assumed a robbery is going on , or a little girl is about to be raped or a murder happened nevertheless it always gets the job done.

Before I mention the next on the list note that we were like top five most wanted on both theft and robbery list so don’t freak out when I say this. Nanny Jane is a seductress. I still don’t know how she does it but both male and female security of any rich home we wish to rob always fall victim of this. We are still trying to discover and ask if she did use magic to seduce them but she keeps telling us that magicians never reveal their secret and don't even bother on our discovery. It is always a dead end.

Meeting Lucy is muscle, funny right well even If I weigh 500 tons I can’t still defeat Lucy. We can always count on her to fight off security if our plan goes sideways. Lucy Father was a Kung Fu master who taught and trained Lucy all about kung-Fu till his death. Lucy joined us at age 8. She is kind of a newcomer but don’t mess with her. She is really muscular.

Nanny Grace is our getaway driver. She loves to cook so she has an old food truck which she uses to sell food to her customers and also where we bury our stolen treasure unnoticed by the police. Let me just nanny Grace is a woman that even an ant will never make off her as a suspect of any crime because she is very old though 50 years of age yet has a wrinkled face of a woman of 90.

Lastly, Andrew the mastermind and that is me. I run, plan and program every operation though I have no idea about my past but I was blessed by heaven with a super brain. I am so good at breaching through any software. I even hacked NASA once but bailed when I was tracked. I wouldn't be this smart if it hadn’t been for Mr. Grinding who is late now and still wishes he was alive at least I had a bit of a father figure in my life.

Back to the dining hall, I stood on my seat and said” Dear Companions, the day we have all been waiting for is set. Are we ready to take from the rich and make ourselves a home?” 

“ Yes,” They all replied.

“ But remember we have three rules and what are take” I said 

“ Never take from the poor, Never kill and Never leave a companion behind” They replied.

“ Okay then are all ready to be known in history as the children who stood against corruption and injustice” Pause okay I said that but it was too far I guess too much of comic has beclouded reality well, we are kids anything motivating is motivating I really hate this but want it to be our last heist so we are stealing a sum of 200 thousands dollars and few accessories to start a business in the Orphanage with it.

Though I informed everyone at the dining table of my plan, at first they did not seem to like the plan of not robbing from the rich again and starting a business but on second thought when I made them aware that we may end up in prison if we persist in it.

Christmas Night

December 25th 1999

Crime has been the king of New York so let me just say it may be one of the reasons I might be so confident to engage In it but as a common philosopher quote” Even good bad has an end” meaning Crime still has an end. Every New York has either died or been arrested for the crime they engaged in.

My crew and I were set to rob Mrs. Pace home because I found out that she is an up rising millionaire in America and felt a sum of 200 thousand dollars won’t hurt though I never let on my crew who we are stealing from.

Once it clocked 7pm on dot we moved in with the guest with each member of our crew blending into the Christmas party attire. Daniel as a Bartender, Lucy dressed as one of the security details, Nanny Grace dressed as a Christmas gift delivery lady while I dressed as the child of Nanny Jane who acted as the wife of a sitting senator. Luckily, for us no one can recognize any of us since we were wearing mask expect for Nanny Grace and Lucy whose identity is expose that is why I looped the camera away from her and made her the only security manning the back door as for Nanny Grace she is best at her cover as I have nothing worry about.

She was a CIA agent for 7 years before she quit so this is not new to her. As soon as we were all in I checked in everyone's comms to ensure we were all set. The plan is to wrap the money to be stolen in a Christmas gift as well as others and we can escape since no one can suspect a wrapped gift since it is wrapped as a gift. 

When it 9pm on dot, all my companions from my Orphanage Home rushed in causing distraction by playing around by messing up the party drawing all every security officer outside inside leaving Lucy at the back door as plan while both I and Nanny Jane rushed to Mrs. Pace room cracking her safe, taking 200 thousands dollars as we planned and few jewelry.

As soon as we were done, we cleaned out the marks, erased any evidence such as hair, or shifted position objects in the room as advised by Nanny Grace. We were done with the heist and left her room with Christmas presents in our hands containing the item we stole wishing everyone we met as we walked down the stairs merry Christmas.

I signaled to my companions that the mission was successful so they left the party while both I and Nanny Jane exited through the back door to meet with Lucy and the three of us entered Nanny Grace van joining our companions who were already in. 

The heist was a success and three weeks later we expanded Nanny Grace food business attracting a lot of customers to our Orphanage Home as no rich person in Williams Street or any one who drives and desires has no choice but visit our Orphanage to eat. Through this eatery we gained enough money to rebuild the Orphanage paying the government and handing full ownership Nanny Jane.

The Orphanage name now is the Happy Orphanage Home. To our joy every one of my companions were all adopted by wealthy people while few average families but yet lovely ones leaving me behind unwanted by none. Despite this I aided Nanny Grace and Nanny Jane out whenever they needed me this way I won’t miss my companions.
